Published in Relationship Advice 3 mins read

To effectively ask a girl about yourself, reframe the question. You likely mean, "What questions can I ask a girl to learn more about how she perceives me or things related to me?" Here are some examples:

You don't want to ask directly "What do you think of me?" Instead, try indirect approaches.

Questions Focusing on Shared Experiences or Hypothetical Scenarios

These help gauge her opinion without putting her on the spot:

  • "If you were describing me to a friend who had never met me, what's the first thing you'd mention?" (Subtle way to see her initial impression).
  • "What's your take on [a topic you're passionate about]?" (Gauge how she reacts to something important to you).
  • "What's your favorite way to spend a weekend?" This can lead to a comparison with your own weekend activities and how she perceives your lifestyle. (Referencing provided text: "What's your favorite way to spend a weekend?").
  • "Based on what you know about me, what hobby do you think I should try?" (Interesting way to see what she thinks your skills/interests might be).

Questions About Your Actions or Interests

Framing it as seeking her opinion on something related to you, but not you directly, is key:

  • "I've been thinking about [a project you're working on]. What are your initial thoughts?" (Gets her feedback on your endeavors).
  • "What's something you're really passionate about? This might lead to her sharing her thoughts on your passions, too. (Referencing provided text: "What's something you're really passionate about?")
  • "Do you have a favorite book or movie that has influenced you? Because I find [a book/movie you like] really impactful." (Find common ground and see if she understands/appreciates your tastes.) (Referencing provided text: "Do you have a favorite book or movie that has influenced you?").
  • "I've been trying to improve my [skill, e.g., cooking, writing]. Do you have any tips or resources you'd recommend?" (Shows vulnerability and that you value her input). Are there any skills you've always wanted to learn? You might share some of your dream skill sets with her to make this question better. (Referencing provided text: "Are there any skills you've always wanted to learn?").
  • "What hobbies or activities do you enjoy in your free time? I was considering starting [a related hobby]." (Find out about common interests. (Referencing provided text: "What hobbies or activities do you enjoy in your free time?").

General Tips:

  • Listen Actively: Pay attention to her responses and ask follow-up questions.
  • Be Genuine: Don't just ask questions for the sake of it. Be truly interested in her perspective.
  • Balance the Conversation: Don't make it all about you. Share your thoughts and feelings as well.
  • Read the Room: If she seems uncomfortable, change the subject.

By using these approaches, you can gain valuable insights into how a girl perceives you and your interests, without making her feel like she's being put on the spot.
