Falling in love in 36 questions

A study showed that in 36 questions and about 45 minutes, we can fall in love.

In 1997, Arthur Aron, invents this method that would be… infallible! Thus, two complete strangers who would answer these 36 questions and look each other in the eyes for four minutes at the end, fall in love. It seems crazy and unlikely, however, Mandy Len Catron, a professor at the University of Vancouver who did not believe so much in this magical method, did the test that can be found in this article: “To fall in love with anyone, Do this” and published in the New York Time.

The chosen person was not a complete stranger and the two “players” exceeded the indicated game time, however, the rules were followed. Mandy Len then explains, “You’re probably wondering if he and I fell in love. Well yes. While it’s hard to credit the study entirely, it gave us a way to start a relationship thoughtfully. We spent weeks in this intimate space we created that night, waiting to see how it will evolve. » Falling in love in 36 questions

Inevitably, the questions are intimate and personal and allows the other to enter our hidden sphere. Trust is therefore quickly established and we have the feeling of knowing the person in front of us, since always.
