Anyone who has experienced a long distance relationship understands the longing to be next to that person, but in the meantime while you cannot, what else can you talk about that you have not already?  You may think that you have covered everything there is to need to know about your partner, but there are always some questions remaining.  Some of these topics may not be life changing or very interesting but you may learn a lot more or you may even become impressed by the person that you are dating at a distance.  Here are some great conversation questions to get your partner talking and jump starting your next conversation:

• What makes you good person?
• What was your best and worst job experience?
• Where have you worked in the past?
• Who is your best friend and what is he or she like?
• What is your family like?
• What is your favorite pastime with your family?
• What is your favorite holiday?
