This is great for patching-up relationships or renewing a old one You both agree to dedicate a entire hour just for yourselves. Mutually agree on a location ~ like a nice park, near the beach, etc. You also agree on who goes first. Here are the ground rules: ONE of you gets the first half-hour to talk about *anything* you and about as topics as you like ~ or opt to say nothing at all. That first person selects the direction you travel and the pace. They opt to stop at any time or change directions. It's your job to keep up and LISTEN really listen. During that half-hour the ONLY thing you are allowed to say is "uh-huh" or "no" that is unless you are asked a direct question. Your reply must be VERY brief and you must try your best to AVOID direct conversation! At the end of that first half-hour, the second person gets their turn with the same ground rules! THEY pick the direction, pace and topics. YOU are allowed to reply following the same rules above You (and they) be very surprised at what you discover! After that hour you both should have plenty to talk about Otherwise
