Brilliant.
Very brilliant.

However, only a calm and conservative girl would be interested in answering all this.

Most times, just ask her if she would like to go on a date with you. Obvious answer is yes. The rest is history.

Presh900:
you forgot this question : Do you Like beans??. Trust me bro it reveals a lot

NaijaSlate:
Most of the time, you want to know more about someone but you are short of questions to ask them. Rather than using the over-used ''Tell me more about yourself'' and sounding like an idiot, you could use any of these instead

1. What’s the one thing you would like to change about yourself?
2. Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert?
3. If you are in a bad mood, do you prefer to be left alone or have someone to cheer you up?
4. What is your idea of having a good time?
5. What are you most thankful for in life?
6. What’s your biggest regret in life?
7. What do you think about when you’re by yourself?
8. Do you think a guy and a lady can be best of friends?
9. Would you ever take back someone who cheated on you?
10. When do you think a person is ready for marriage?

Any of the above questions will definitely lead to a deeper and more interesting conversation. so... you are free to try them out on this beautiful day

ElsonMorali:


Yeah, well I think you missed the point.

I think the OP means when she agrees to go on a date with you and you're finally on that date. Something like a conversation starter.

Kirinwa:


Not to talk of telling you her biggest regret in life.

Op you need to tell me you get your weed supply.

tukdi:
Boring

Trojan2010:
I don't plan ahead.. the flow always comes .

So OP Ur ideal conversation would go thus:
Me : hi !
Girl: hello .
Me: I'm Trojan
Girl: hi Trojan am Bisi
Me: so Bisi would you take back someone that just cheated on you?
Girl : ( for her mind) weré nairaland leleyi o .

I really do not think these question are that helpful or that asking a person would necessarily yield the truth. When you say "know someone" we should ask for what purpose? .In this case you seem focussed on man /woman relationship but you may wish to "know someone" for 101 purposes e.g employment etc.

Getting answers to the right questions is key but you will need to get those answers from many sources.

1.Biography and family
Family structure/background,economic status. Where did they spend childhood ,school etc. Relationship wit father, relationship with mother. Relationship with siblings.

2. Intelligence and thinking pattern. Everyone has their own way of measuring this.

3. Outlook on religion and morals. Is the person religious. ? weak moderate strong fanatic?
Are they tolerant of others. Do they believe morals come from religion. Beliefs in heaven/hell and other superstitions. Does the person like himself/herself(self esteem) .do they learn from mistakes

4. Habits. eg gambling,smoking,alcohol,porn ,bleaching

5. Health status. allergies, any regular treatment,previous surgery,personal hygiene,sleep pattern and habits

6. Family secrets,personal secrets,bereavements

7. Candour and probity. How honest and truthful in general and specific domains e.g money ,relationships, religion

8. Attitude to work; energetic,lazy punctual diligent

9. Interpersonal relationships. Friendly hostile ,loyal, cowardly/brave needy,clingy,manipulative, longerthroat etc
10. Money : saver or wasteful.? Focused or waiting for a miracle from "sowing seeds",


There is a whole lot more but the starting point in knowing people is to know yourself first
