Going on a first date can be extremely nerve-racking. You’re bursting with anxiety because there’s so much pressure on you to perform. Instead of relaxing and getting to know someone new, you’re constantly trying to think three steps ahead and make sure you don’t run out of things to say.

That’s where this list of funny first date questions can really save the day. All you have to do it memorize your favorites, and ask them whenever the conversation falters or you think the dreaded awkward silence is coming.

To make things easier, I’ve divided the list into three sections. Funny ice-breakers will help you get the conversation started, funny questions once the date is underway and you feel more comfortable, and flirty questions for when things are going really well.

I hope you find the list useful.

How to use these questions

The most important thing is to use these questions sparingly. Pick your favorites and keep them on standby if you’re struggling for something to say. When you’re on a date, you want the conversation to flow as naturally as possible. You don’t want to sound like a robot going through a list of questions or your date will feel like they’re being interrogated.

So, if you’re having a hard time getting the conversation started, fire away with one of these questions and see where the conversation takes you.
