- I know the name my partner’s best friends. - I know what stresses my partner is currently facing. - I know my partner’s basic philosophy on life. - When you’re both finished, talk about your Love Maps. - How up-to-date are they? - What’s changed? - Are there any surprises? - Be sure to ask and answer the questions on both your lists. Remember: no judgment. The purpose of this exercise is to reestablish a connection, not to blame your partner for what he/she doesn’t know.
