(45:49) Guest: Arthur Aron, Research Professor of Psychology in the School of Medicine at Stony Brook University  A set of 36 questions has been top of mind on Facebook, social media, and the pages of the New York Times for several weeks now.  “Typically they \[relationships] develop by both people sharing personal information,” says Aron.  “If you have been with a person for 40 minutes and you share personal stuff, it’s not hard to find something you like about them,” says Aron.
