48 Conversation Starters For Married Couples

August 12, 2021 Leave a Comment

These conversation starters for married couples can be the perfect change of pace for a nice evening in! One thing I’ve learned in our last few years of marriage is that you have to be intentional in planning time together with your spouse. Life gets busy and if it’s not made a priority it simply won’t happen.

If you’ve got young kiddos like we do, or are simply in a busy phase of life I’m certain you can relate to there never being enough hours in the day. As wives, I think we’re often under the impression that planned time together with our husband means a scheduled out-and-about date night. Although a special night out is always enjoyable, I’ve also learned that alone time at home can be just as nice and even more relaxing.

What Are Good Topics To Talk About With Your Husband?

Many of us believe that life is made up of all of those notably “big moments”. You know- the vacations, promotions, accomplishments, wedding, birth of your children, their milestones…. And the list goes on.

However, the reality is that life is made up of all of the tiny moments in between.

It’s important to take a step back and realize that the ordinary, repetitive, mundane, and sometimes downright hard days are blessings too. They’re each a gift and an opportunity to grow- in our character, marriage, parenting, etc.

Friend, please don’t ever stop asking questions and getting to know your spouse. If you’re looking for some general ideas to talk about here are some additional marriage topics for discussion:

  1. Ask how you can be a better support to your spouse- with the goal being to discover if there are any unmet needs
  2. Talk about what each of you are most passionate about
  3. Then ask questions on the topic that your spouse is most passionate about. Show them that you genuinely care and have an interest, if for no other reason than because you love them.
  4. Discuss your goals for the year
  5. Bring up some of your favorite memories
  6. Ask several questions about your spouse- and then use what you’ve learned to do a kind gesture for them
  7. Talk about your health- what is most important to you and how to go about achieving a healthy lifestyle
  8. Discuss places you would like to go someday. Then be frugal, resourceful, start saving, and see what you can make happen.
  9. Come up with a list of ideas to do that will make you both laugh/smile when one of you is having a rough day.
  10. Each of you share an area that you’re discouraged in. Then make a point to be a strong support system for your spouse.

Marriage is a tremendous blessing, yet life-long learning process. After ten years of marriage I feel like I know my husband pretty well, but there will always be so much more to learn. When we ask questions and have a genuine desire to come along side of our spouse and truly “do life” together, our marriage will naturally be strengthened in the process.

These 48 conversation starters for married couples will take a while to get through. Please don’t rush through them. Enjoy your discussions, laughs, and your time learning more about your best friend.
