190 Questions To Ask Your Girlfriend

Keeping things exciting in a relationship is tough when you think you know everything about each other. You spend day in, day out together, but how often do you actually get down to each other’s deepest secrets?

Gestalt Therapist Christine Vargo, LCSW, says, "There’s tremendous value in asking deeper questions in relationships. The vulnerability required to ask and answer meaningful questions can facilitate trust, encourage open communication, and enhance the bond towards a strong foundation."

When you first start a conversation with someone you've started dating, there's no way to know what kind of things you'll end up learning about one another. Even when you eventually fall in love, there are plenty of interesting questions to ask a girl to grow even closer.

Vargo continues, "One of the best things about knowing and learning about your partner is the genuine practice of curiosity. People have such rich life experiences that have brought them to meeting the person they can choose as a partner."

These questions for couples are intended to help give both of you more insight into each others' needs over the long term. You'll be able to discover a favorite memory, what kind of deal breakers you each have, or just to get a conversation starter to kick your date night off.

With everything from childhood to high school, to the future, these will leave no doubt in your mind about who your girlfriend really was, is, and will be.
