Oh, that lovey-dovey feeling and the butterflies... Having butterflies in your stomach feels like you are on top of the world, doesn't it? Or that you are about to throw up. Either of the two. Especially when you are prepping to go on a first date with that special someone. What do I ask them? What if I say something stupid? While it would be ideal for the conversation to just flow and for there to be no awkward silent pauses, that only happens in movies. In reality, it's not all smooth like butter. Well, unless you have crazy chemistry going on. But assuming you are on the lookout for questions to ask your crush, you need a little prep me up ahead of your date.
However, doing a little homework beforehand ain't never hurt nobody. There are many foolproof questions to ask to get to know someone that will liven up the conversation. After all, questions are always good conversation starters as you show interest in the person you are talking to. Yet, starting off with flirty questions to ask your crush might not be the best way to strike up the conversation, as you might appear too pushy. Yes, by that, I mean asking whether they would like to Netflix and chill at your place. That's a no-go.
However, there are plenty of conversation starters and good questions to ask your crush that will keep the conversation going. To put in my twopence from the journalistic experience, the best way to get the dialogue flowing is to ask open-ended questions. That's a foolproof way not to run into a brick wall. And another good way to prevent the conversation from coming to a dead end is to simply ask: why? Pluck up details you learned from the conversation and the answers they gave you and expand on them.
Below, we've compiled some interesting questions to ask and deep conversation starters for when you really want to get to know the person. And don't worry, "What's your favorite color" is not one of them. Nevertheless, if the chemistry is just not there and you feel you have to push through the conversation, maybe they are not the one. Remember that the effort must come from both sides. And hey, good luck! We are rooting for you!
