Which types of questions do you prefer to answer when meeting someone new?

Question

Finchie40 · Accepted Answer

Never really thought about it honestly , Cuz if I am into her I would answer any question she asked me , the best questions would be if she asked me my interests and what do I expect out of a relationship , basically getting to know each other to see if her and I have great chemistry and connection to see if we have things in common , , to see if her and I would be good together , to see if we are in it for the long haul or is it just temporary , so yes questions about books and movies and music is good to know mainly to see if we have similar interests , Those things actually matter even though most people just think it’s no big deal but in the long run it is , cuz if you really don’t have much in common you both will eventually get bored of each other or you will eventually miss the things you actually enjoy doing appease the other person , so it’s best to look at the big picture before wasting someone’s time , not saying you have to have everything in common but the more you do the better it is , is the way I look at it. You want to be able to enjoy things together instead of someone just pretending they enjoy those things because even if it seems new and exciting eventually you will get bored of it and miss the things you actually enjoy, so I tend to look for girls that have a lot in common with me , I don’t want to be with a girl that I hate her music taste or I hate the movies she watches we really wouldn’t have much to talk about , or much to do together , I want a girl that enjoys a lot of things together

Call me old fashion but I picked A. If asked about a book or movie I may or may not have read or seen it. But everyone has a day of some kind and most of us have had those we had just as soon forget. So no matter the kind of day someone is having we can relate. Meaningful conversations start when people can relate to one another.

Even a baby boomer like me can relate to a bad day some gen Z is having. Or even a pissy boss @DizzyDesii lol Internet any better my friend? @annabananna what about you?

Honestly? Neither. As I am not a fan of "small talk," or asking cliché questions; it's not a great way to get to know a person. Eventually I do ask questions like that... but after the fact of knowing said person, or we've been talking for a while.

I prefer questions such as hobbies, what interests them, what do they do for a living- especially as you get older, it's the best way to connect to people and see what their passions are, or what makes them tick.

the latter, because if you ask me "How are you? What are you doing? What's your name?" on here, I'm gonna think you're just some horny or boring mofo. So go get shot with a byrna for fun or something

Guy13 · Answer

your thinking is so dead. People are not equations and methodology is not the answer and Social Media is then enemy in what you are admirably trying to do.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Married? Kids? Travel?

Screenwriter · Answer

Book or movie would be my first choice and how a party was my second choic, if we both attended same event. But just about anything is on limits if I enjoy talking to someone. If I'm uncomfortable with a question, I"ll simply say, let's talk about something else. If that person doesn't get the hint, then it's likely I shouldn't continue the conversation.

tiamatx · Answer

How has your day been - boring question. How was the party - unless it was Burning Man - boring question ;)

Book/movie always starts an interesting discussion, unless all you read/watch is low quality crap.

Red-Blaze · Answer

B.. I mean without them knowing me, how my day been feels more like formality, asking how I engage with something feels like more connection and intrest

I hasn't really thought of that I probably answer anything as long it isn't offensive or illegal that is

dustybiker · Answer

Book or movie question shows more of their own personal interests. I wouldn’t care about a party. I’d be there wanting to learn more about them.

more like how's your day been? if the person wants to talk to you they'll elaborate. if not, then they'll give a simple answer

TaureanBull81 · Answer

Here's a good question... What's one thing you have done that you'll never do again? It makes the person think 🤔 🤣

JonAsk69 · Answer

I’d prefer more personal questions than the questions given above. I think everyone is different and has their own preferences and maybe even odd quarks. I’d like to talk about those or something along the lines.
