Starting an interesting conversation on a first date can be pretty daunting, especially if you're not big on small talk.

I'm sure you have a guilty pleasure that you'd hate to admit but don't we all? We all go through a phase where we can't get enough of something, so I'm sure your date has one too. This is supposed to be a fun question, so try not to get all judgy.

Pop culture has made binge-watching a norm, especially now that we're almost always at home. Not only is it a fun topic to talk about, but it also gives you a lot to add to your watch list. Is the lockdown keeping you from hanging out together? Don't worry. You can still enjoy a perfect date even apart—two words- Netflix party.
They say money can't buy happiness, but I'm not sure if I agree with that. I mean, I'm sure sky diving is a load of fun, and so is scuba diving, but boy, they sure don't come in cheap!
Aside from our families, our friends know us best. I'm sure she already made a great impression on you ( I mean, why else would you date her?), but this is a great question to ask if you want to get to know her better and see her in a different light.
Dick Clark couldn't have said it better. Music is indeed the soundtrack of your life. So maybe asking her this question can tell you something about your date's life.

One way or another, we'll all have defining moments that will change our lives forever. Maybe it already happened for your date? This deep question will pull you closer together.

Women who love to read can sure carry a conversation, and they're probably the type of girls you'd want to introduce to your parents. Parents love smart girls.
It's different for everyone, but I'm sure you'll get an interesting answer every time. Maybe she can win gold for spending too much time on social media? Or perhaps she can win an award for being able to drive a car without getting a ticket, ever?
Ask her this question to get an idea for future dates. Whatever type of girl she is, girls always love it when their man plan dates for her. If you keep a girl happy, you'll always be her favorite view.
The activities a girl enjoys doing can tell you a lot about her. She's definitely a modern-aged woman if she likes going to pop culture events. She's the creative type if she likes music festivals. She's a free spirit if she prefers a day on the beach.
Asking about how she celebrates holidays will give you an idea about a girl's preference. You know, in case you get to spend it with her next time.

The most important thing you can do on a first date is to be yourself. And asking something that you usually wouldn't ask or answering them in ways that don't agree with your character are two things you DO NOT want to do while on a first date. Don't be someone else.

Still nervous about coming up with questions to ask to get to know someone during a first date? I've listed down some more frequently asked questions to help you out.
First dates are supposed to be fun and light so remember to keep your questions on the down-low but make sure that it helps you get to know your date better. Asking her about her hobbies and interest is probably the best way to break the ice. It's light, and it immediately gives you an idea about her.
You might want to wait this out until you get home, and remember to keep it cool. Thank her for a great time and wish her a good night.
It depends. Whether it's a kiss or a hug, it's not okay without consent, so before making any moves, ask. Believe me. It pays to be mindful, especially on dates. You don't want to make a bad impression.
When nerves get the better of you on a first date, you can speak unthinkingly and say something embarrassing. To avoid this from happening, remember to steer away from intrusive and particularly personal topics.
This one's totally up to you. If you got through the first date, whether or not you clicked with your date, the rule of thumb is to remain courteous. Thank her for making time, and wish her well. If you would love to see her again, the best way to do it is just to ask.
Oh, she'll let you know. If not by words, she'll let you know through her actions.
Looking for conversation starters and ways to get to know a person? Check these out:
I hope you enjoyed this list of questions to ask. Now that you know many first date questions, it should be easier for you to start a conversation. The next time a clueless guy asks you for first date tips and how to get a girlfriend, tell him that knowing the right first date questions matters.
If you want to avoid nerve-racking first dates, remember that knowing the things to ask on a first date makes all the difference.
One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn’t do.
