25 questions to ask your girlfriend

Good questions to ask your girlfriend are ones she hasn't already answered a dozen times, such as an opinion she has completely reversed in five years. Ask a card out loud over dinner or on a walk, listen, then let her ask you back. These 25 Twosies questions are mostly open-ended and fit any couple, not just girlfriends.

How to play it as a couple

  1. 1. Tap Play 10 cards somewhere you can both relax, like dinner or a walk.
  2. 2. Read the card aloud and let her answer first. Then answer it yourself and follow up.
  3. 3. On the few cards with options, one of you picks privately, passes the phone, and the other guesses.

Questions people ask

What are good questions to ask your girlfriend?

Ones with a story behind them: the weirdest thing you two own together, what she was thinking when you first met that neither of you said, something she never told anyone because it didn't seem interesting enough. Small, specific questions get longer answers than big ones.

Can I ask these questions to my boyfriend or partner?

Yes. Every card here is written partner-neutral, so it works for any couple. The page is named for the search, not for the cards. The boyfriend and couples pages hold different questions from the same app.

How do I ask my girlfriend questions without it feeling like an interview?

Answer them yourself too. Trade turns, follow up on what she says instead of jumping to the next card, and stop after a few if the conversation takes off. The player shows one card at a time, so it never looks like a checklist.
