THEN, NOW, AND EVERYTHING BETWEEN

16 first-impression and now-impression questions for friends.

Pair a question about when you met with one about today. It gives your friend a way to describe how their perspective changed.

Sasy asks the same two core prompts: “What was your first impression?” and “What’s your impression now?” These extra question pairs are conversation ideas you can use in a chat or as context when sharing your link; they don’t change the prompts on your board.

Pair 1

Then: What was your first impression of me?

Now: How would you describe me now?

Pair 2

Then: What did you think I would be like?

Now: What surprised you once we became friends?

Pair 3

Then: Did I seem quiet or outgoing when we met?

Now: When do you see me being most myself?

Pair 4

Then: What do you remember about our first conversation?

Now: What is a conversation with me like now?

Pair 5

Then: What did you first notice about my sense of humor?

Now: What kind of joke makes us both laugh now?

Pair 6

Then: What did you think we had in common?

Now: What is something we both love now?

Pair 7

Then: What is one word you would have used for me then?

Now: What word would you choose today, and why?

Pair 8

Then: What did you expect our friendship to be like?

Now: What is your favorite thing about our friendship now?

What does a kind answer look like?

For example: “At first I thought you were quiet. Now I know you just take a little time to get comfortable—and you’re the funniest person in our group.” Describe your own experience, avoid judging someone’s appearance, and don’t include private details.
