   Esther Perel, Psychotherapist

   Ask each other questions. "When you learn something new about your partner—whether it’s funny and surprising or vulnerable and deep—you experience a stimulating contradiction: a meeting with the new and the comfort of recognition. Sharing new stories is a great way to evoke this."
