100+ personal questions that will strengthen your bond with your partner (2024)

Anyone who has ever been on a date — let alone attempted to flirt — can tell you the same thing: It’s hard to know what to say to someone you like. You want to know all these things about them, and as soon as you’re face to face, all coherent thoughts have left your head completely. The same thing can happen over text or when messaging on dating apps.

The key is to have some creative questions to ask a guy tucked in your back pocket. Better than simple statements that do nothing to advance the conversation, questions create room for a thought-provoking back and forth. They can also make it very clear that you’re flirting while providing an easy way for the guy to respond without feeling flustered. (Hey, we all get that way.)

Maybe you go with something relaxed and funny like, “What celebrity would you like to switch places with?” Or you can get personal and learn more about the real him with a question like “How do you hope people will remember you?”
