So, you’ve matched with someone cute on Hinge and you’re excited to get to know them better.
But how do you break the ice and make the conversation flirty and fun?
The answer is simple: ask some creative and unique questions.
Now, I know what you’re thinking.
“But I’m not good at coming up with questions!” I’ve got your back.
How to Answer Flirty Questions on Dating Apps
Before we get into the list of flirty questions, let’s talk about how to answer them (If you’re not interested in taking our tips and want to jump into the questions, use the outline above)
1. Setting the Tone:
Online conversations lack the non-verbal cues we often rely on in person. Therefore, reading between the lines becomes critical.
If they’re sending longer messages, using emojis, or responding quickly, it’s a sign they’re engaged.
If they’re not, you may want to re-think before flirting around.
Next, be neutral…
Before delving into flirtation, kick things off with simple questions like, “How was your day?” or “What’s your favorite way to spend a weekend?”
This helps establish a basic rapport and lets you gauge their current mood.
Pace Yourself: Conversational pacing is vital. You might be ready to jump into fun, flirty banter, but they may still be warming up.
Let the conversation progress organically. If they start sharing more personal stories or details, it’s a good sign they’re comfortable and you can introduce some playful flirtation.
Examples:
- “That’s a great photo with the dog! What’s its name?”
- “I saw you like hiking. Do you have any favorite trails?”
- “I’m curious about your adventure in skydiving. On a scale from 1-10, how much did it boost your adrenaline?”
- “I noticed you enjoy cooking. If you were a chef for a day, what’s the one dish you’d be most proud to serve?”
- “Your profile mentions you love mysteries. Have you ever tried escaping a real-life escape room?”
- “I noticed you enjoy cooking. If you were a chef for a day, what’s the one dish you’d be most proud to serve?”
- “Your profile says you’re a bookworm. If you had to be trapped in a novel’s world for a week, which would it be?”
- “I’m curious about your adventure in skydiving. On a scale from 1-10, how much did it boost your adrenaline?”
- “I saw you’ve been to Italy from your photos. If you had to describe your trip using only three emojis, which ones would you pick?”
- You have a photo in what looks like a concert. Which band were you there to see? Any fun stories from the night?”
2. General Principles:
1. Respect Boundaries
Online dating thrives on mutual respect. Every individual has their comfort level, and it’s essential to recognize and respect that. If you sense hesitation or if they outright tell you they’re uncomfortable, apologize if needed and shift the topic.
Example: If you ask, “Do you believe in love at first swipe?” and they respond with a simple “Not sure,” it’s better to steer away from deep romantic questions for now.
2. Be Genuine
Authenticity is attractive. Rather than throwing out generic flirty lines, focus on what truly interests you about their profile or your conversation. Personalized questions show you’re paying attention.
Example: Instead of just saying, “You have beautiful eyes,” say, “I couldn’t help but notice your eyes in that photo by the beach. They remind me of the ocean. Have you always lived by the coast?”
3. Stay Positive
Keep the conversation light and upbeat, especially in the initial stages. While it’s okay to acknowledge a bad day or discuss deeper topics later on, try to focus on the positives to create an enjoyable conversation environment.
Example: If they mention having a stressful day, you can respond with, “Sorry to hear that. Is there a favorite song or activity that helps you unwind? I find music always lifts my mood!”
4. Avoid Being Too Forward
There’s a delicate balance between being flirty and being forward. Remember, what one person finds charming, another might find overbearing. Listen actively and adjust based on their feedback.
Example: Instead of saying, “You look hot in that dress,” consider, “You have a great sense of style. That dress in your photo really caught my eye!”
5. Humor is Your Friend:
A little humor can break the ice and set a light-hearted tone. Just ensure your jokes are in good taste and not at someone else’s expense.
Example: “I’d say something charming right now, but I’m sure you’ve heard them all. So, tell me, which ones should I avoid?”
