125 Questions to Ask Your Girlfriend (That She’ll Actually Like)

Talking to anyone can be tough, but starting and keeping the conversation going with a romantic partner comes with its own anxieties. Whether it’s a new relationship or one you’ve been in for a hot minute, the task is the same: What is there to talk about over dinner/on the way to the movies/at home/on the phone/literally any downtime you may have together? (On that note, need some date ideas?)

Instead of spiraling—we’ve all been there!—consider putting together a thoughtful vault of questions to ask. It’s not just about filling talk time, it’s about getting to know someone you already like a whole bunch.

Ahead, we pull together a ton of options, from deep questions to ask your girlfriend to cute questions to put out there. You’re welcome.
