Questions to ask your girlfriend work best when they're small and specific. "Tell me about yourself" gets a shrug. "What cereal did you eat straight from the box as a kid?" gets a ten minute story and a strong opinion about marshmallows.

Below are questions sorted by mood. Ask one, actually listen to the answer, then answer it yourself. That's the whole trick.

Before you start

• One at a time. A list of questions feels like a job interview.
• Answer them too. She'll want to know your pick, so have one ready.
• Remember the answers. Bringing up her childhood cereal two months later is a very strong move.
• Match the mood. Funny and random for the couch, cute and flirty for late at night, traps for when you both feel brave.

Funny questions to ask your girlfriend for fun

• If your cat or dog could text, what's the first complaint they'd send about you?
• Which celebrity would you trust to babysit a houseplant for a month?
• Have you ever honked at a goose, and did the goose win?
• If your life had a warning label, what would it say in one line?
• Which kitchen appliance best matches your personality, and why is it the blender?
• If you were a ghost, which room of your parents' house are you haunting?

The app has plenty more funny questions like these for when the couch gets quiet.

Cute questions to ask your girlfriend

• How many of my socks are currently living in your drawer, rough guess?
• Were you in the shower, the bus or a checkout line the last time I randomly popped into your head?
• If our first date had a candle scent, what would the label on the jar say?
• Which nickname for me do you use in your head but not out loud?
• What's the smallest gift that ever made you unreasonably happy?
• If we were two animals sharing a burrow, what animals are we?

There's a full set of cute ones in the app for when you want to make her smile.

Questions to ask your girlfriend to get to know her better

• What cereal did you eat straight from the box as a kid?
• At your family's holiday dinners, which dish shows up every year that nobody actually eats?

• Which movie can you quote from start to finish?
• What's the first concert you ever went to, and who drove you?
• If your house was flooding and your phone was safe, which object are you saving?

The Pop Quiz deck in the app flips this around and tests how many of these you actually remember.

• If I were a dog breed, which one am I and why is it a corgi?
• How long do I take to pick a show on Netflix, in minutes, honestly?
• Which of my snacks do you steal when I'm not looking?

Random questions to ask your girlfriend

• If your handbag or backpack had a name, what would it be?
• Which cartoon neighborhood would you rent an apartment in, rats and all?
• If every vending machine sold just one thing, what should they all sell?
• What's an emoji you've never once used, and why does it offend you?

Trap-style questions to ask your girlfriend (playful)

She's probably asked you a few of these. Time to ask them back. Laugh at every answer, nobody is allowed to be offended.

• If I cut one centimeter off my hair, how many days would it take you to notice?
• If my ex texted you a nice compliment about me, would you reply?
• Be honest, whose cooking wins, mine or your grandma's?
• If I were a worm, would you keep me in a little box with air holes or set me free?
• If your best friend and I both needed a ride at the same time, who's getting picked up first?
• Which one of my friends do you think is the funniest, and choose carefully?

If you love this section, there's a whole deck of playful traps in the app.

How to make it feel like a game

A few small tweaks turn a list of questions into the best part of the night:

• Guess her answer first. Say your guess out loud before she answers. Keep score.
• Swap the asker. Every second question, she picks one for you.
• Use a time limit. Five seconds to answer the would you rathers. No overthinking.
• Add a dare. If someone refuses to answer, they make the tea.

A card deck helps too, because nobody has to think up the next question. Pass one phone back and forth, read it out and go.

Over text or FaceTime

If you're apart, questions are an easy way to feel close. Send one with your morning text, ask for a voice note instead of typing, and save the trap questions for a FaceTime call so you can see her squint at you before answering.

The goal isn't to finish a list. It's to learn one new small thing about her every time, and to keep making each other laugh while you do it.
