The Talking Stage Toolkit

The Scorecard

Ten questions, about five minutes. At the end you'll know whether you actually know this man, or you just know how he makes you feel.

Answer with your head, not your heart. Only count what he actually said or did. If you catch yourself thinking "well, he'd probably," that's a no. Probably means you're guessing, and you always guess in his favor.

How long y'all been talking

Real dates he has taken you on

First, one quick thing

The last thing he did that felt good

Pick the one that's freshest. We're going to run it through the rule before you answer anything else.

Question 1 of 10

Reading what you wrote

This takes a few seconds.

Before I score it

Here's what you told me

I read every answer against one rule: only what he actually did counts. If you think I got one wrong, flip it. It's your situation.

Your score

Out of ten

0/10

The ones you couldn't answer

These aren't things he's hiding from you. These are the blanks you've been filling in yourself, and you filled every one of them in his favor.

A man who's really interested gets easier to answer these about. Not harder.
