Want to know some of the best deep questions to ask people? Here are some intense questions to ask someone you love, or like and wish to know better, and also some to ask yourself.
We all know of the ‘inner voice’. The voice that comes from within. This can be in the form of intuition, or for some, it is connecting with the supreme. In our busy lives, we seldom hear that inner voice of ours. We can hear it, telling us things which we conveniently forget.
We may be confronted by this voice again, when someone asks us some deep personal questions. These questions not only give you a reality check when asked to your inner self but when asked to someone else, they let you know the person better.
Deep questions always let out the innermost feelings a person has. So, these should be asked only to people you like (and if they like you too), and to people you love. There are questions to ask a boy or girl to get to know him/her, and there are some questions only to ask someone you love.
In this article, we shall first take a look at questions you can ask someone you like, then at a few you can ask someone you love, and then some deep questions you can ask yourself.
Deep Questions to Ask Someone You Like
These questions can also be asked to someone you have just met, if the situation permits you to. These questions are a bit personal, so avoid asking them to people you hardly know. These questions are serious, and not casual in nature. Their answers might indeed bring you face-to-face with some things.

Deep Questions to Ask Yourself
Introspection is the toughest thing on this planet, because we are not brought up to look for our own weaknesses. People do not like to look for their own mistakes and shortcomings, while the good qualities bloat us with pride.

If they have given you a way to delve deeper into yourself, your relationship, or your life in general, go ahead and use them to know yourself and those around you, better. These questions are thought-provoking and require deep thinking. They cannot be answered instinctively. And before asking these questions to anyone else, see if you would be comfortable answering them if someone were to ask you these.
