To really connect with someone may be one of the #nicest feelings in life. Sometimes, however, it’s difficult to get to that point, and the first moments can be a challenge.

Nicequest is an expert on questioning, so take advantage! Here are 10 questions you must ask if you want to break the ice with someone.

1. What’s your favorite animal and would you like to be that animal for a day?

Eat and play all day – that’s the life!

2. What’s the best Halloween costume you’ve ever had?

Are you out of ideas for Halloween costumes? Get inspired by asking others!

3. What’s your favorite word?

And why do you like it? Is it from your favorite song? Do you just like the sound? Or does it remind you of something?

4. What superpower would you like to have?

Make sure you have your own answer ready when talking to superhero fans!

5. What is your most-used emoji?

They should be saved on the phone and might say a lot about a person :D

6. What was your favorite subject in school?

And saying “the break” does not count!

7. What’s one thing about you that surprises people?

Most people love talking about themselves! And this question might lead directly to what they are most proud of in themselves!

8. Who, or what, was your biggest teacher?

Was it literally a school teacher? Or a family member or even a book character? Lessons can be taught everywhere and by anyone!

9. If you could instantly become an expert in something, what would it be?

Playing the guitar is great, learning how to play the guitar can be frustrating. Which learning process would you like to skip?

10. At what job would you be terrible?

Could you be a chocolate tester? Or would you just take hours to come to a conclusion because, well, just another bite to make sure…

Try these questions the next time you meet someone new. Or ask your friends and family, maybe you will find out something you didn’t know about them! Oh and you might want to have an answer ready if they give the question back to you! That way the conversation will run smoothly.
