My boyfriend and I have been dating for two months. We've been friends for a while though. We are around each other almost 24 7 and if not together we are on the phone.
Sometimes I think about it. I know his likes, his dislikes, where he's from, his middle name, etc, but I feel like I do not know him enough for real. It doesn't scare me, because we have the perfect chemistry, but I want to know him more without crazy questions like a dating site!
Any tips?

The 'deeper' stuff comes later, as you spend more time together. Everytime you have a conversation with him you're learning a little more about him. Don't put pressure on yourself to find out everything straight away, or you'll miss out on the process of getting to know each other on a deeper level.
My parents have been married for 20 years and sometimes one of them will mention something from their past that the other still doesn't know about. Don't think of it as a negative thing, it means you've got lots to look forward to as your relationship develops. [ rainbowcherrie's advice column | Ask rainbowcherrie A Question ]
britZ67 answered Thursday March 17 2011, 10:56 am: ah I know what ya mean :P if you want to get to know him on a deeper level. Try asking him about his past. maybe bring it up like: "ah, I miss/do not miss being a kid, don't you? I had a great (or terrible childhood. what was your's like?"
The key is to offer something about yourself in order to get something in return, so that way he recognizes you trust him enough to open up to him, and therefore do the same. Even your deepest insecurity can help him open up. So if your doing a 20 questions thing, it doesn't have to be crazy..so like "what's your biggest fear? Mine is I won't reach my parents expectations)
(or whatever you want it to be)
Be patient with him, read his body language to. If he reacts uncomfortable around a subject then be careful. Having deep convos is great 'cause then the person reveals who they really are, their morals/ideas/values

We asked each other questions like where do you want to live in the next 10 years, would you ever abort your child if you had it at this age, are you more of a giver or receiver, whats the worst thing you've ever done, your best kept secret, etc etc. things like that. You get to know them on a deeper more emotional level depending on the questions you ask them, either about their relationships or morals or even just funny ones to lighten the mood up a little bit. You get a good sense of who they really are and what they belive in. Hope this helps, good luck xx [ AskSinz's advice column | Ask AskSinz A Question ]
