Trying to get to know your crush? Questions are a great way to direct the conversation or break the ice! You can also play games that are question-based like the popular 21 Questions . To help you get started, we've gathered 21 of the most fun, flirty, and thoughtful questions you can ask.
Steps
-
This is a silly question that can make your crush relax. It's such a disarming question that they can be as serious or lighthearted as they like when answering. Since meme humor is so all over the place, it's also a really good way to figure out if you two have a similar sense of humor.
-
Ask this question to get them talking about themselves. Give your crush a chance to explain the reason for the name they picked. They might say it's from a favorite book, it's the name of a loved one, or it's the name of one of their favorite places. Whatever they choose, you'll learn something about them.
-
Your crush's spending habits give you insight into what they like. If they spend a lot of money on sneakers and you're a fashion junkie, you've just figured out a great way to connect. You two could enjoy a date night at the mall and you have a gift idea for the next birthday or holiday that rolls around.
-
Ask this one to build rapport with your crush. After all, almost everyone has had a crush at some point! Open up and reveal yours, so they learn a little about you. Then, you two can laugh over your earliest crushes. Plus, if they're embarrassed about it, you can playfully tease them later.
-
Your crush's answer will tell you what they like and dislike about dating. If they say they're stressed out by doing classic dates like dinner and a movie, you'll know to switch it up and try something casual. If they like first dates, pry a little bit to find out things they like to do.
-
Learn about the people closest to your crush, so you find out what they look for in a friend. Their answer might tell you if they're really close with their family or if their social circle comes first. It's just another way to gauge if you two have similar values. If family is super important to you too, you've got something in common.
-
Their answer helps you understand how your crush sees themselves. Specifically, you'll learn how they want others to view them. Maybe they were the class clown and they'll share funny stories. They might say they're kind if they empathize with others, or they may say they're smart if they appreciate logic. This question also opens the door for you to tell them what you enjoy about them.
-
Your crush's response can reveal a different side of their personality. Usually, if they're into something weird, it's probably something they don't often mention. Being left-handed? Having freckles? Being awkward? You'll catch a glimpse of your crush's quirky nature with their response. [1] X Research source
