I would be careful about what the questions actually were. There are some trivia type questions that I know about my friends or co-workers but I'd never say that I "know" them like I know my husband. It's nice to know each other's favorite kind of jelly, but it's more essential to be able to recognize when your partner has hurt feelings, for example.
I'm not saying the test is worthless, but don't be too hard on yourselves if some of the questions really don't matter.
And kudos for wanting to know about each other.
I don't think you need to frantically memorize each other's ansers, but it is a good conversation starter to talk about the answers.
Will pray that God leads you in the right direction.

Okay,
I have a couple of thoughts, don't know if they will help or not, but here they are.

You know the getting to know you things we get from our friends, maybe you guys could do one of those a week and then use that asa springboard to talk about the answers you gave. Or on facebook right now are 25 random things you may not know about me.

This site has some things that might help.

You have to take time for both of you. Start a date night once a week with no distractions. Don't talk about anything else but the two of you.

I will be keeping you in my prayers. God says if we ask wisdom he will give it to us. Maybe you could find a book at the Christian Bookstore to help.

This morning Husband and I spent some time together before the house woke up. We took a test I got off the internet to see how much we knew about each other. Sad to say that after 12 years of marriage we both failed, both of us getting only 13 out of 44 questions correct. It is funny that we had the same score, but the out come is a lot disappointing.

Any suggestions or exercise, that we can do that will motivate us to get the "spark" back, will be greatly appreciated.
