You?re trying to get to know someone to decide if you should date them or not.
Where do you even start? How deep do you go on the first date? What do you talk about?
For those extroverted conversationalists, this isn?t a question even worth asking. They just seem to know what to do and say. Usually, anything.
For the introverted silent-types, this can be scary and soul-crushing.
If you want to get to know the other person and not sure what to ask, consider these 42 questions before a serious relationship:
