Intermediate questions

Before starting intermediate type questions, all players should review their performance on basic questions. Were we able to be absolutely honest, or did we find ourselves answering 'to impress the other person' or to give a certain impression of ourselves? Only if we are able to be totally honest in basic questions should we progress to intermediates.

Remember there is more than one correct answer for some questions.

Intermediate type questions are about things we do, behaviors or habits, but still must not reveal any personal details. Here are some examples:
