A conversation or a dialogue mostly consists of  one person asking questions and the other one answering; and vice versa.  There is a theory according to which there are no dumb answers only dumb questions. So you might realize that it’s quite important to know how to ask questions. You will always select your questions; you know that  there are questions that cannot be asked in certain places or situations.

For example, if you go out on the first date with a lady, you should not ask for her age, or any other such questions . And this goes for the ladies as well when dating a man. At an interview for example, it you ask your future employer what does his company do, it’s quite possible that you will not get that job because the interviewer would assume that you have made some research before attending to the meeting. So if you don’t know the basics about the company, they will take it as a lack of interest from you.

However, there are situations when it is allowed to ask almost any sort of question.

In this case, it’s ok for you to come out with funny random questions to ask your partner. It doesn’t have to present a certain purpose or meaning. You just ask it for fun. So here are some questions that could help you passing through the phase  in which  you don’t know what to say:

The chicken or the egg: what came first?

What do you think the biggest turn off is (in a guy or girl)?

What is the funniest name you have ever heard?

If you had two things to take with you on an inhabited island, what would they be?

Have you ever had any psychic experiences?

Would you go on a trip to the Moon if you had had the chance? Why?

What is mightier: a pen or a sword? How about a pencil?

What quote don’t you agree with? Why?

What is the funniest word you can think of?

Have you ever made up a word by yourself? What was it and how did you make it up?

If you could be an animal, what would you be and why?

Would you like to be able or fly, or have paranormal powers, or have you ever dreamed of being a superhero? What powers would you have?

If you had three wishes, what would they be?

What is your favorite day of the week and which one you hate most?

So, the questions can go on forever, you only need some imagination and a a little bit of humor to have a good time even with a person you hardly even know.
