 Online Dating There are hundreds of fun "getting to know you" questions but there are also really important ones that most people don't even think of asking -- but that are absolutely necessary if you want to have a happy relationship. Even if you're just getting to know someone, asking the right questions while dating will help you know if the relationship is worth pursing. You might be surprised at what you can learn from a simple question that cannot be answered with a simple yes or no. Examples include:
- Is it ever appropriate for someone to express anger in a physical way? If so, when and how?
- If a fire destroyed your home and all of your belongings, what would you do? If you could take out three things before the blaze, what would they be? (Assuming there is no one in the house at the time of the fire.)
- When you are sick and feeling poorly, do you like to be alone or do you like to be pampered and have someone close to your side most of the time?
- What one skill do you wish you had learned but haven't yet (play the piano? Learn a foreign language? Fly a plane?)
