Again, these are just a few questions to get your conversation started. There are so many different questions that you can use to learn about someone you have just recently met or just recently started dating. The more questions you can ask, the better.

Asking the right questions will not only give you lots to talk about, but will also help you to see whether or not you are compatible.

Keep your eye out for red flags. If you have nothing in common, it’s unlikely that you will be able to work out in a long term relationship.

And if you aren’t loving the answers to the questions, or find some of their answers concerning, you might need to head in a different direction.

Use these questions as a starter reference for getting to know someone better.

Then, use your intuition on whether or not you want to continue getting to know them. Who knows – this might just be the beginning of a beautiful, blossoming relationship!
