At B2, relationship discussions move from the personal to the analytical. These 50 questions challenge upper-intermediate adults to examine how social media reshapes friendship, whether the concept of loyalty means the same thing across cultures, how power dynamics affect workplace relationships, and what the difference is between being alone and being lonely.
The vocabulary reflects this analytical depth: words like 'dynamics', 'boundary', 'expectation', 'intimacy', 'reciprocity', and 'codependency' combine with argument structures like 'it could be argued that...', 'the distinction between... and... is...', and 'this is particularly relevant because...' that scaffold the structured, evaluative discourse B2 assessments require.
From Personal to Analytical
B2 relationship questions work because they combine personal experience with intellectual analysis. Everyone has navigated friendships, dealt with difficult colleagues, and thought about what they value in others. The B2 challenge is not having something to say but saying it with the precision, qualification, and structure that upper-intermediate English demands.
Facilitating B2 Relationship Discussions
Create a respectful atmosphere before starting. Establish that students discuss general principles and experiences rather than specific personal problems. YapYapGo's pair format creates the intimacy needed for honest discussion while the timer structure prevents any single topic from becoming too heavy.
