208 Questions To Ask Your Crush To Spark A Connection

Interacting with someone you really like can be way too anxiety-inducing. It’s hard to know what to say and how to say it without making them think you’re some kind of weirdo. When you’re talking to a crush, you might be wondering if there’s a way you can test out if the two of you would be a compatible romantic match. There are so many things you want to know, but you also don’t want to seem like you’re grilling them or they’re being interviewed. If you’re feeling a bit lost, we have some great questions to ask your crush to spark a connection and get them to open up. Not only are these questions super laid-back, but your crush will love answering them. Plus, you never know what you might discover!

  1. Do you have any siblings? Asking your crush if they have any siblings is a great way to spark a connection between the two of you. For one thing, if you both have siblings or something similar about your family size, it gives you something to bond over. Not only that, but given that family is the most important thing in many people’s lives, talking about them can bring up a lot of emotions and good feelings.
  2. If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Travel questions are great ways to spark connections with people. You can tell a lot about a person based on where they want to visit, what kind of travels they hope to take, and the type of experiences they hope to have when they venture out into the world. If you want to travel to and see many of the same places, it could be a great thing that the two of you bond and connect over. If you have different travel goals, you can give each other the reasons why you want to go to these places and inspire each other that way.
  3. What was your dream job when you were a kid? Some people have the same dream from the time they’re children up until adulthood and make that dream a reality as far as their careers go. Many people, however, dream of being something when they’re small and then change their mind as they get older and learn more. Either way, it’s really interesting to learn about what someone wanted to be when they grew up in comparison to what they do as adults. It’s a great way to gain insight into who someone is and to spark a connection.
  4. What’s your favorite food in the world? Food is very much tied to emotion and memory and for that reason, it’s the perfect topic to spark a connection with someone you have feelings for. Most of us have a very strong emotional attachment to food because it reminds us of our family and friends, happy memories, comforting memories, and all kinds of nostalgia. Finding out someone’s favorite food is a great way to learn more about them because most of the time, our favorite food is in some way tied to a memory or something that’s close to their heart.
  5. Do you have any pets? The topic of pets is a great way to connect with someone because we all love our pets so much and consider them part of our family. If you love animals and have pets that mean the world to you but the person you’re talking to doesn’t like animals or has no interest in ever having pets (that’s pretty rare!), that might be a deal breaker for you! If you both have the same type of pets or like the same kinds of animals that can be something that sparks a connection. Even if you have different types of pets though, connection through the love of animals is a great way to bond with someone.
  6. What’s your favorite song to listen to after a bad day? This is such a great question to gain insight on who someone is because music is very sacred and important to so many people. A good song can completely turn your day around and everyone has a different type of music, a different musician or band, or even a specific song that is their go-to when they’re just having a bad day and need something to soothe them. It’s definitely a way to get closer to someone if you can bond over a type of music that you both love or even if you don’t like the same type of music, it can be a great experience introducing each other to different music and showing each other why you love something specific. It’s a great way to feel a spark with someone.
  7. What are your holiday traditions? Christmas is definitely a time of the year that’s very special to a lot of families. It’s definitely a great way to spark a connection with someone if you can share stories of the type of traditions that your families have for the holidays and some of the great memories that you have of growing up and experiencing those things. The love and closeness of family is definitely a big factor in relationships so, if you both have the same relationship with your families, that can really strengthen your connection to each other.
  8. What was the best day of your life so far? This is just a fun question to ask in order to spark a connection with someone you like because, just like other questions that involve delving into the past, memories spark a lot of emotion for most people and getting to go back and relive one of your happiest days and share it with someone is a great way to share a sweet, emotional connection with them. Best days can look so different for everyone. It might be a day that was huge and epic where something amazing happened, but it might be something more simple and average. Finding out not only what someone’s best day was but why it was their best day is a really great way to learn more about them and connect.
