An excellent list of dating questions to get an open conversation going with your date. They can also help you get clarity about your compatibility.
Here is an excellent list to get an open conversation going with a date. Before you read the questions, here is a rule of thumb: Any question you ask your date, your will probably ask you as well. These questions can require some thinking, and your date may ask you to answer first. It is best to have these conversations in person. If that is not possible, video chat is next best so you can see the person’s facial expressions and body language.
If you don’t know the answer, feel free to call or email me, and we will schedule a session to help you get answers and clarity to get you the outcomes you want with dating. Mention this article, and your session will be FREE!
1) What are your dating rules?
Most of us have preconceptions about do’s or don’t’s with dating. We may limit ourselves from showing our true personality. We may be overly talkative, not talkative enough, or not share what we truly would like to do on date. In short, when we are not aware of our dating rules, we may act different than how we want to be to make our best impression.
2) What does it mean to have a happy marriage/relationship?
A few things to discuss here. What is does it mean to be happy? What does a happy marriage look like?
3) What do you like to day-dream about?
You probably never consciously thought about this. Day dreaming is a psychological phenomenon that is triggered when our brains are distracted or bored and have open time to fill.
4) Describe your ideal holiday?
This question can tell you with whom does your date wish to spend their holiday? It may teach you about their family traditions, or about their family dynamics (which will definitely matter if your relationship gets serious!) It tells you the details or emotions they imagine for an “ideal” holiday.
5) What do you like most about yourself?
Invites dialogue about what your partner sees as good in himself or herself. Generally speaking, someone with a strong self-esteem can easily answer this question without feeling judged or acting arrogant.
It is a sign of a healthy person, when he or she know what you like about themselves. Most people have a longer answer for the opposite question- “what do you like least about yourself?”
6) When do you get angry?
This can tell you a lot about your dates expectations in his or her life, because a common trigger for feeling anger is when our expectations are not met.
7) What do you think about when you can’t fall asleep?
This question opens up honest discussion about what your date feels stressed about. Because everyone is different, we all have a different set of stressors and fears. My wife and I have different stressors and we enhance each other’s lives because we use the power of leveraging to support each other with our stressors.
