Past Questions to Ask Your Girlfriend

Who we were in the past plays a huge role in the people we are today. Asking your girlfriend about her past may lead to two situations; one where she is nostalgic and is more than happy to share about the fun times or two, where she gets upset about revisiting tough times. Here’s where you need to pay attention and make sure you’re touching the right ground as you wouldn’t want to force her to talk about something she isn’t comfortable with. 

However, being upfront and tackling topics like this shows that you’re not afraid to get to know her, which is a great sign that she will appreciate it. Just keep watching how she reacts to the questions and be ready to abandon ship when needed. 

  • What TV show or character were you obsessed with as a kid?
  • What was your nickname amongst your primary school circles?
  • What’s your greatest accomplishment in high school?
  • What’s the most difficult thing you’ve had to go through as a teenager?
  • Have you ever been in a relationship when you weren’t in love?
  • Where did you grow up? Where’s the best place you’ve lived?
  • What was your most embarrassing moment in school?
  • Who was your high school crush? How many did you have?
  • What were you like in high school? In what way have you changed the most?
  • What skill did you master when you were a child that you’ve forgotten since?

 

Intimate Questions to Ask Your Girlfriend

Intimacy plays a huge part in any relationship, which is why it is often stressed on so much. While physical intimacy gets the most rep when this topic is being discussed about (and can you blame us? It’s just so fun), emotional intimacy is just as important— if not, even more so necessary in order to have a strong and loving relationship. 

Intimate questions are the perfect way to pick at your girlfriend’s brain, to understand her and your relationship better. 

  • When we met for the first time, what was your first thought about me?
  • What was it that made you realise that you wanted to be in a relationship with me?
  • What do you find most attractive about me?
  • What are the three things that you are most thankful for in your life right now?
  • Out of everything we’ve done, what has been your favourite adventure of ours that we did together?
  • What do you like most about us?
  • Do you have any unfulfilled fantasies? Is there any way I can help with that?
  • Is there anything you want to say to me but you’ve felt like you couldn’t? Why and how can I be better?
  • What is the best piece of advice you’ve gotten this year?

 

Personal Questions to Ask Your Girlfriend

It’s all fun and games until it gets real. You can ask her every burning question under the sun but none of it truly will show your appreciation for her. Sure, you could treat her by doing something like a grand gesture of love— such as bringing her breakfast in bed— but does it go any more than just that? If anything, you just showed her you can work the stove. 

Try asking her these questions that are more emotion-based, so that your girlfriend will really feel that you truly care for her. Especially if her love language happens to be words of affirmation, these questions will truly melt her heart into a puddle if happen to ask something that’s been on her mind for a while now. Make her feel as loved and cared for as you’d want to with these: 

  • What was the best part of your week?
  • When you woke up, what was your first thought this morning?
  • How can I make your day better?
  • Is there anything you’ve wanted to do for a while, but need help with?
  • How have you been feeling lately?
  • Is there something coming up that you’re perhaps nervous about?
  • What has been something that is stressing you out lately?
  • Is there anything I can do that would help you relax?
  • How are your family and friends?
  • Have you done anything for yourself lately? Can I help?

 

And with that, we have finished our list! You might be wondering what is the point of this exercise but the truth is that something as simple as asking your girlfriend questions could be the highlight of her day. Think about it; you make her laugh, cry (sometimes, it’s a good thing, fellas!), and even maybe turn her on depending on what you’re asking. 

Communication is a two-way street though, so you need to contribute just as much as she is! Try breaking free of the boomer stereotype of men not being great listeners and hating their significant other— you’re a better man than that, and she knows it too. 

The best relationships are built on trust, which is only possible when the two of you bear it all with each other. Vulnerability is scary but it forms a deep bond with people once someone is willing to open up that much of themselves to you. Through a deep understanding of the other person’s life, needs, and goals, the relationship is bound to last through challenges.
