36 Questions Part 2: More Questions

Continuing on the topic of the 36 questions, as interesting as it is to think that you could convince yourself to fall in love with anyone simply by asking each other questions, it seems a bit irresponsible to me. What if you do fall in love with this person only to find that the two of you are irreconcilably incompatible? I, personally, think that there should be another set of questions that you ask first, to ensure that this is someone who you really want yourself to fall in love with. That said, here is my own list of 36 questions that I think should precede the other list.
