# Closer Question Content Guide
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
This guide defines how Closer question packs should be written, reviewed, and validated.
|
|
|
|
Closer is a private couples app. The questions should help two people feel closer through honest, warm, simple conversation. The app should not sound robotic, clinical, cheesy, judgmental, overly sexual, or like therapy homework.
|
|
|
|
Use this guide before writing or rewriting any question JSON file.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 1. The Closer Voice
|
|
|
|
Closer should sound:
|
|
|
|
- Warm
|
|
- Private
|
|
- Plainspoken
|
|
- Emotionally honest
|
|
- Lightly playful when appropriate
|
|
- Easy to answer
|
|
- Respectful of both partners
|
|
- Safe and non-pressuring
|
|
|
|
Closer should not sound:
|
|
|
|
- Robotic
|
|
- Overly formal
|
|
- Fake-deep
|
|
- Preachy
|
|
- Judgmental
|
|
- Clinical
|
|
- Like a therapist worksheet
|
|
- Like a corporate wellness app
|
|
- Sexually pushy
|
|
- Repetitive
|
|
- Awkwardly generated
|
|
|
|
## Voice Rule
|
|
|
|
A good Closer question should sound like something a real person could comfortably ask their partner.
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What boundary around money boundaries would help you feel respected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What money boundary would help you feel more respected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Best:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is one money habit we could agree on that would make things feel calmer between us?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 2. Core Writing Standard
|
|
|
|
Every question should pass this test:
|
|
|
|
- Would a real couple actually answer this?
|
|
- Is it clear in one read?
|
|
- Does it sound natural out loud?
|
|
- Does it invite honesty without blaming either partner?
|
|
- Does it fit the pack topic?
|
|
- Does it avoid sounding like AI-generated filler?
|
|
|
|
If the answer is no, rewrite it.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 3. Product Goal
|
|
|
|
Questions should create moments like:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Oh, that is easy to answer.
|
|
That actually sounds like us.
|
|
I never thought to ask that.
|
|
That feels safe to say.
|
|
That could start a good conversation.
|
|
That makes me want to see my partner's answer.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Questions should not create moments like:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What does this even mean?
|
|
Why is this worded so strangely?
|
|
This feels like therapy homework.
|
|
This sounds too intense.
|
|
This sounds too sexual too fast.
|
|
This feels repetitive.
|
|
This makes me feel accused.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
# 4. Pack Purpose
|
|
|
|
Every pack needs a clear job.
|
|
|
|
Before writing a pack, define:
|
|
|
|
- Pack name
|
|
- Pack purpose
|
|
- How the user should feel while answering
|
|
- What kind of connection the pack should create
|
|
- What free users should get from the pack
|
|
- What premium users should get from the pack
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
Pack name: Date Night
|
|
|
|
Pack purpose:
|
|
Help couples plan, enjoy, and remember time together.
|
|
|
|
User feeling:
|
|
Playful, wanted, relaxed, connected.
|
|
|
|
Relationship outcome:
|
|
More intentional time together without pressure.
|
|
|
|
Free value:
|
|
Easy, fun, low-pressure date questions.
|
|
|
|
Premium value:
|
|
Deeper romance, planning preferences, rut-breaking, and memory-making prompts.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 5. Question Depth Levels
|
|
|
|
Use depth intentionally.
|
|
|
|
## Light
|
|
|
|
Light questions should be easy, fun, and low-pressure.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is a simple date we could do with almost no planning?
|
|
What snack would make a movie night feel complete?
|
|
Would you rather go out for dessert or stay in with a blanket?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Medium
|
|
|
|
Medium questions should reveal preferences, needs, feelings, or patterns.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What makes a night together feel special instead of routine?
|
|
What helps you feel like I really want to spend time with you?
|
|
What is one thing that would make date night easier for us to follow through on?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Deep
|
|
|
|
Deep questions should invite vulnerability without pressure or blame.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
When have you felt most wanted by me, and what made it feel that way?
|
|
What kind of attention from me makes you feel closest?
|
|
What do you miss about the way we used to spend time together?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Depth Rules
|
|
|
|
- Light questions should not feel shallow or useless.
|
|
- Medium questions should not feel like a confrontation.
|
|
- Deep questions should not feel like a trap.
|
|
- Sensitive questions should never pressure a partner to disclose, forgive, explain, or perform.
|
|
|

# 6. Question Types
|
|
|
|
Each question type should have a purpose.
|
|
|
|
## written
|
|
|
|
Use written questions for stories, memories, reflection, emotional honesty, and open-ended answers.
|
|
|
|
Good examples:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is one small thing I do that makes you feel cared for?
|
|
What is a memory of us that still makes you smile?
|
|
What is something you wish we made more time for?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Avoid written questions that are too vague:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How can we deepen our connection?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is one thing we could do this week that would make us feel more like a team?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## single_choice
|
|
|
|
Use single-choice questions for preferences and simple decisions.
|
|
|
|
Good example:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "single_choice",
|
|
"text": "Which kind of date sounds best this week?",
|
|
"options": [
|
|
{ "id": "cozy_at_home", "text": "Cozy at home" },
|
|
{ "id": "dinner_out", "text": "Dinner out" },
|
|
{ "id": "something_playful", "text": "Something playful" },
|
|
{ "id": "something_outside", "text": "Something outside" },
|
|
{ "id": "surprise_me", "text": "Surprise me" }
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rules:
|
|
|
|
- Options should be short.
|
|
- Options should not overlap too much.
|
|
- Options should sound like real choices.
|
|
- Avoid more than 6 options unless truly needed.
|
|
- Option IDs should be clean, neutral, and stable.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## multi_choice
|
|
|
|
Use multi-choice questions when more than one answer can be true.
|
|
|
|
Good example:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "multi_choice",
|
|
"text": "What helps you feel relaxed on a date with me?",
|
|
"options": [
|
|
{ "id": "no_rushing", "text": "Not feeling rushed" },
|
|
{ "id": "phones_away", "text": "Putting phones away" },
|
|
{ "id": "good_food", "text": "Good food" },
|
|
{ "id": "easy_conversation", "text": "Easy conversation" },
|
|
{ "id": "physical_affection", "text": "Physical affection" },
|
|
{ "id": "clear_plan", "text": "Having a plan" }
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rules:
|
|
|
|
- Multi-choice prompts should say or imply that multiple answers are okay.
|
|
- Options should not shame either partner.
|
|
- Include practical and emotional options when possible.
|
|
- Avoid options that are almost the same thing.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## scale
|
|
|
|
Use scale questions for comfort level, closeness, energy, readiness, satisfaction, or frequency.
|
|
|
|
Good example:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "scale",
|
|
"text": "How much do you feel like we need a real date soon?",
|
|
"scale": {
|
|
"min": 1,
|
|
"max": 5,
|
|
"min_label": "Not much",
|
|
"max_label": "Very much"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rules:
|
|
|
|
- Scale labels should be gentle and neutral.
|
|
- Do not make the low end sound bad or shameful.
|
|
- Scale questions should measure one thing only.
|
|
- Avoid loaded or accusatory wording.
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How badly are we failing at making time for each other?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How much would some intentional time together help us right now?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## this_or_that
|
|
|
|
Use this-or-that questions for fast, playful, low-pressure choices.
|
|
|
|
Good examples:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Planned date or spontaneous date?
|
|
Dress up or stay cozy?
|
|
Cook together or order in?
|
|
Sunset walk or late-night drive?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rules:
|
|
|
|
- This-or-that prompts should be quick.
|
|
- Avoid choices that imply one partner is wrong.
|
|
- Use this type most often in fun, date, intimacy, home, and lifestyle packs.
|
|
- Do not overuse it in serious conflict or trust packs.
|
|

# 7. Free vs Premium Strategy
|
|
|
|
Free questions should prove the app is worth using.
|
|
|
|
Premium questions should feel deeper, more specific, more personalized, more playful, or more valuable.
|
|
|
|
## Free Questions Should Be
|
|
|
|
- Easy to answer
|
|
- Warm and useful
|
|
- Good enough to create trust
|
|
- Low-pressure
|
|
- Representative of the pack
|
|
- Strong enough that the app feels valuable before payment
|
|
|
|
## Premium Questions Should Be
|
|
|
|
- More specific
|
|
- More thoughtful
|
|
- More emotionally useful
|
|
- More creative
|
|
- More likely to start a meaningful conversation
|
|
- Worth paying for
|
|
|
|
Premium must not be only “more of the same.”
|
|
|
|
Bad premium strategy:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Free: What date sounds fun?
|
|
Premium: What date sounds really fun?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better premium strategy:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Free: What is a simple date we could do this week?
|
|
Premium: What kind of date would make you feel pursued, not just scheduled?
|
|
```
|
|
|

# 8. Phrases to Avoid
|
|
|
|
Avoid these unless there is a very good reason:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What boundary around...
|
|
hold space
|
|
emotional container
|
|
relationship dynamic
|
|
intentional intimacy
|
|
deepen our connection
|
|
in this season
|
|
needs met
|
|
love language
|
|
safe space
|
|
show up for you
|
|
lean into
|
|
create space for
|
|
feel seen and heard
|
|
navigate conflict
|
|
honor your needs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
These phrases are not always wrong, but they quickly make the app sound generic, clinical, or AI-written.
|
|
|
|
Use natural language instead.
|
|
|
|
Instead of:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How can I hold space for your needs?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
When you are having a hard day, what helps you feel supported by me?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Instead of:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How can we deepen intentional intimacy?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is one small thing that makes you want to be closer to me?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 9. Tone Rules by Pack Type
|
|
|
|

|
|
What inside joke of ours still makes you laugh?
|
|
What would make an ordinary night feel more fun?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Avoid:
|
|

How can we optimize shared leisure experiences?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Date Night Packs
|
|
|
|
Date Night packs should feel romantic, playful, practical, and low-pressure.

|
|
What would make you feel like I planned the night with you in mind?
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Boundaries Packs
|
|
|

Boundaries packs should feel respectful, calm, and non-accusing.

|
|
|
Use:

|
What is one thing you wish we handled more gently?
|
|
When you need alone time, what helps you feel understood instead of distant?
|

|
|
|
|
Avoid:
|
|
|
|
```text

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Conflict Packs
|
|
|
|
Conflict packs should feel safe, repair-focused, and not blaming.
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
When we disagree, what helps you stay open instead of shutting down?
|
|

|
|
```
|
|

|
---

|
|

|
```text

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Sex, Desire, and Physical Intimacy Packs
|
|
|
|
Sex, desire, and physical intimacy packs should feel adult, consent-based, respectful, optional, and never pushy.
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What kind of affection helps you feel wanted without feeling pressured?
|
|
What helps you feel comfortable talking about desire with me?
|
|
What is one way I can make physical closeness feel safer and more relaxed?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Avoid:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What should I do to make sure you give me more sex?
|
|
What fantasy do you have to tell me tonight?
|
|
Why do you not want me more?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Sensitive packs should include:
|
|
|
|

|
|
- No pressure
|
|
- No shame
|
|
- No assumptions about gender roles
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
# 10. Safety Rules
|
|
|
|
Closer is not therapy, counseling, crisis support, or medical advice.
|
|
|
|
Questions must not:
|
|
|
|
- Encourage staying in unsafe relationships
|
|
- Pressure forgiveness
|
|
- Minimize abuse
|
|
- Encourage sexual pressure
|
|
- Ask users to disclose trauma before they are ready
|
|
- Diagnose a partner
|
|
- Tell a partner what they owe
|
|
- Encourage monitoring, control, or isolation
|
|
- Frame controlling behavior as love or boundaries
|
|
|
|
## Abuse-Sensitive Rule
|
|
|
|
Avoid questions that frame controlling behavior as a normal boundary.
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What rule should we have about who your partner can talk to?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What helps you feel secure in our relationship while still respecting each other's independence?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Consent Rule
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How can I get you to be more physically affectionate?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What kind of affection feels good to you when you are open to closeness?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 11. Wording Rules
|
|
|
|
## Keep Questions Short
|
|
|
|
Aim for 8 to 22 words when possible.
|
|
|
|
Longer questions are okay only when the topic needs softness or context.
|
|
|
|
## Ask One Thing at a Time
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What boundary do you need around family, money, friends, work, and rest so you feel loved and respected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What family boundary would make our relationship feel more protected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Avoid Stacked Emotional Words
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What would help you feel safe, seen, valued, loved, respected, and emotionally connected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What helps you feel respected by me?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Avoid Vague “More” Questions
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
How can we be more connected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What is one thing we could do tonight to feel closer?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Avoid Blame
|
|
|
|
Bad:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What do I do that makes date night feel bad?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What tends to make date night harder for you to enjoy?
|
|
```
|

# 13. Pack Structure Recommendation
|
|
|
|
For a 250-question pack:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Total questions: 250
|
|
Free questions: 75
|
|
Premium questions: 175
|
|
Written: 150
|
|
Single choice: 40
|
|
Multi choice: 20
|
|
Scale: 25
|
|
This-or-that: 15
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This structure is acceptable if the current app expects those counts.
|
|
|
|
Quality matters more than exact counts. If a pack cannot support 250 good questions without filler, reduce the pack or split it.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
# 14. Content Batching Process
|
|
|
|
Do not write all 250 questions in one creative pass.
|
|
|
|
Use this process:
|
|
|
|
1. Define the pack purpose.
|
|
2. Define subtopics.
|
|
3. Write 40 to 50 high-quality questions.
|
|
4. Review tone and repetition.
|
|
5. Write the next batch.
|
|
6. Add choice, scale, and this-or-that questions.
|
|
7. Assign free/premium.
|
|
8. Assign depth.
|
|
9. Validate JSON.
|
|
10. Read the full file like a user.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
# 15. Subtopic Planning
|
|
|
|
Each pack should have subtopics to prevent repetition.
|
|
|
|
## Example: Date Night
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
easy dates
|
|
low-cost dates
|
|
at-home dates
|
|
going out
|
|
planning preferences
|
|
romance style
|
|
fun and play
|
|
food and drinks
|
|
music and movies
|
|
seasonal dates
|
|
surprises
|
|
feeling wanted
|
|
getting out of a rut
|
|
busy-life dates
|
|
date-night stress
|
|
memories
|
|
future date dreams
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example: Boundaries
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
alone time
|
|
phone privacy
|
|
social media
|
|
family involvement
|
|
friendships
|
|
money
|
|
work time
|
|
rest
|
|
chores
|
|
home space
|
|
conflict
|
|
tone of voice
|
|
physical affection
|
|
private conversations
|
|
parenting or family roles
|
|
emotional bandwidth
|
|
plans and scheduling
|
|
personal belongings
|
|
sleep
|
|
stress
|
|
```
|
|
|

|

|
|
# 16. Repetition Check
|
|
|
|
A pack fails if it has blocks like this:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
What boundary around alone time would help you feel respected?
|
|
What boundary around phone privacy would help you feel respected?
|
|
What boundary around family involvement would help you feel respected?
|
|
What boundary around friendships would help you feel respected?
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Instead, each question should have its own angle.
|
|
|
|
Better:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
When you need alone time, how should I respond so it does not feel personal?
|
|
What phone privacy boundary would help us feel trusted instead of watched?
|
|
How involved should family be in decisions that affect just the two of us?
|
|
What helps friendships feel healthy without making our relationship feel pushed aside?
|
|
```
|
|
|

|
# 17. Human Read-Aloud Test
|
|
|
|
Before finalizing, read 25 random questions out loud.
|
|
|
|
Reject questions that:
|
|
|
|
- Sound stiff
|
|
- Sound embarrassing for the wrong reason
|
|
- Sound like a therapy script
|
|
- Sound too much like another question
|
|
- Take too long to understand
|
|
- Would make a normal couple roll their eyes
|
|

# 20. Final Standard
|
|
|
|
A finished Closer question pack should feel:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Human.
|
|
Warm.
|
|
Private.
|
|
Clear.
|
|
Useful.
|
|
Specific.
|
|
Respectful.
|
|
Worth paying for.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If a question does not help a couple feel closer, understand each other, laugh together, plan something, repair something, or feel safer with each other, it probably does not belong in Closer.
