One of the biggest joys of life is getting to know your crush on a deeper level. And one of the easiest ways to achieve that is to learn about some great things to talk about with your crush. These topics can get them to open up to you and reveal their true self.
That said, knowing what to talk about with your crush so you can build a deep connection is easier said than done. Luckily, we’ll do our best to help you with that and reveal our list of what we believe are the greatest topics of conversation you can start with a simple question.
Once you read them and apply them when you talk to your crush, you’ll quickly find yourselves having a meaningful and insightful conversation. And your crush will certainly appreciate you taking the time to get to know them better than anyone else.
How Can You Tell If Something Is Good To Talk About With Your Crush?
To create this list of what to talk about with your crush, we thought long and hard about what makes a conversation memorable, insightful and meaningful.
Memorable conversations are emotional and leave an impact.
Insightful conversations delve deep into a person’s personality and find out how they would behave in various peculiar situations.
And meaningful conversations are those that people want to be a part of. That's because these conversations enrich them in some way and provide food for thought.
We did our best to create unique questions that touch on several or even all of these things at once, for your benefit. They’re great ways to get someone you like to talk to you.
You see, people like to talk about many different topics. But the most interesting topic the vast majority of people love to talk about is themselves!
That’s what makes our questions so special; they encourage a person to talk about their most favorite thing in the world. They get people to open up and reveal their innermost thoughts about life, the universe and everything else.
On top of that, your crush won’t be able to answer our questions with a simple “Yes” or “No.” They’ll have to actually take the time to think things through and answer in great depth. Now that’s one way to keep the conversation flowing.
That said, all of the questions on our list are meant to be insightful and fun when asked the right way. You’ll see several deep questions to ask, but you’ll also get some rather wacky, absurd and even ridiculous questions. Not to mention sexual and intimate ones.
There are also no right and wrong answers because everything is subjective. So don’t take things too seriously and simply enjoy your time with your crush.
Now let’s dig in!
50 Things To Talk About With Your Crush That Create Incredible Conversations
Let’s start off slow with some funny and deep questions and gradually build up to the really hard-hitting ones that’ll get your philosophical juices flowing.
1. What movies scared you the most as a child? Are they still scary to you?
Any subject that’s full of emotion can be interesting as long as you keep it light. This particular question also shows how they’ve matured as a person. It also reveals all the silly things they used to think were so scary when they were kids.
2. Would you like to be able to talk to cats or dogs, and why?
Some people love cats and others love dogs, and it tells a whole lot about them as a person. Then continue the conversation by asking what they would talk about with their furry friends.
This is one of the fun “would you rather” questions you can also ask when you’re already dating.
3. George Carlin once said “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” What were some of the times you did something incredibly, massively, jaw-droppingly stupid?
Questions that encourage your crush to show vulnerability around you are particularly powerful at building a strong connection.
4. If you had the ability to give any person an orgasm simply by pointing at them, how would you use this power?
A silly-sounding question that’ll let you know a lot about your crush’s morals and ethics.

This question, when asked at just the right time, can also build tension between you and your crush.
