“Hey honey, how was your day?”
How many times did you sincerely answer this question?
Our bet is close to zero.
You probably said something between “OK” to “great.”
We ask this question because we care. We want to be involved in our significant other everyday life.
We want our partner to share with us his/her small success, significant challenges, thoughts, and hopes.
unfortunately, asking “how was your day” never achieve that goal.
But there are other ways to get there!
Sometimes all we need to do is change our approach a little and ask something more specific, that will lead to a more vibrant answer and conversation.
The first thing you are going to think is “gosh I will never ask that it’s so fake” or “He is just going to laugh at me” and you know what, you are probably right.
Sometimes, after spending so much time together, it is more comfortable being cynical and humoristic than having real genuine conversations.
But if it results in much better communication between the two of you, isn’t worth a try?
So finally, here are some questions you can use instead of how was your day:
