21 Fun Questions To Rescue You On A Date

Questions are the most amazingly simple things that we can come up with when we want to learn about someone else.

Dale Carnegie in his best-selling book, "How to win friends and influence people" writes about the simple power of asking questions to show that we are interested in someone else.

Have you been to a party and been the one asking all the questions and doing all the listening? If you have, you will most likely agree that the other person thought that the conversation was quite interesting. You probably did less that 20% of the speaking but you got 100% of the credit!

If you're a guy and ask a lady some great questions, you will often find yourself leap-frogging to final base, saving a lot of legwork trying to build rapport with her. Asking questions and really listening to what a person says is one of the most naturally flattering things you can do with anyone.

If you are a lady and want to stroke a guy's ego and make him feel good then ask lots of interesting questions and then listen to the answers. You will have the guy on a string from there on!

Despite the ego-focused side of asking and listening there is a genuine side as well. Because people who're genuinely interested in someone else, are the people who are usually popular and well liked. Faking interest is the worst thing you can do. And at the end of the day, if you are not a natural listener then put yourself to the test and practice. You will start to learn SO much about so many things and you will discover parts of people that are just SO interesting to learn about.

Here's 21 questions to ask a guy or girl to get conversation moving. They have been written from a female perspective, however just switch them around if you are a guy and want to use them. If nothing else it will get you thinking about your own questions - which are always better.
