If you have nothing to ask on a date: what should you talk about to keep the conversation going?

When the conversation has reached a dead end, you need to break up the awkward pause with a joke: “Who would you like to bribe so that the topics of conversation never end?” The phrase will defuse the situation and make the interlocutor smile. If the girl turns out to be a big prude and she doesn’t have an answer to the question, you need to ask about her plans for the future.

Universal topics to keep the conversation going– travel (where I would like to spend my vacation), favorite vacation spots, books, films, happy memories from my school/student years, why I chose my profession.

The main thing is not to make the girl blush by asking about past relationships that didn’t work out, or about something secret and intimate (chronic illnesses, skeletons in the closet).

If the interlocutor is open enough, perhaps she will talk about her cherished dream.

On a date you can fantasize:“What century would you like to live in and why? Where would you spend a million?” You can’t let a girl get bored, otherwise the second date may not happen.

How to ask anonymously or vulgarly?

Frank questions is a powerful tool for seduction, but you still need to learn how to use it. They must be asked on time in order to count on the continuation of the relationship.

There are at least 3 rules that should be followed:

  • The first is the achievement of trusting relationships. You can’t ask about secrets “head-on”. Immediately the questions should be unobtrusive, with elements of flirting, trickery, and only then intimate.
  • The second rule is the identification of taboo topics. Leading questions will help identify them. If everything works out with the lady, rule number 2 will make your sex life together bright and rich.
  • The third rule is that everyone has their own degree of emancipation, which means you need to be able to choose the right question for a girl based on her demeanor and communication style. The only help here is personal experience. We need to prepare the ground and relax the interlocutor. You always need to develop the topic, and not “load” with questions from the list.

Girls love confident, moderately arrogant guys, but a feeling of confidence is always an acquired feeling, and it comes with experience. Once you learn how to ask vulgar questions correctly, you can easily get out of the friend zone.

How to ask a girl in an original way: “How are you?”

When your imagination is at zero, but you still want to surprise a girl, you need to use your entire arsenal

Do you often ask your friends how they are doing? I think yes. However, you get the same question in return, perhaps even more often. Sometimes such a question is not at all appropriate, and sometimes the person who is interested in your affairs is not part of your circle of trust, and accordingly, you will not tell them about events in your life.

The most common question is “How are you?” occurs during a pause or while maintaining a conversation and is nothing more than a note of politeness. In any case, politeness is important, so let's learn to answer the question in an original way!

Originally Answered: How are you?

To such a simple and almost daily question, we are used to saying: “Okay,” and closing the question with that. But you need to understand the current situation, the environment and your attitude towards your interlocutor.

Thus, this question can be answered with a witty joke, but provided that you communicate with friends. It is strictly not recommended to respond with cutting phrases to parents, superiors and unfamiliar people.

Friends - answers to the question “How are you?”

Let's look at some answers to a question asked by a friend:

If you like to get smart, you can answer in an original and philosophical way:

  • Just utopian subjectivism.
  • Incredibly banal erudition.
  • The paradox of life.

To the question: “How are you?” Can respond using humor. But don't forget that you can only joke with friends. In this case, you can find a lot of appropriate options:

“How are you in your personal life?” - how to answer such a question?

Most people simply cannot do anything about their curiosity, and some ask just like that, so this question can be heard just as often.

I always don’t want to answer this question more often, because not at all necessary to let others know about the details of your relationship with your significant other, and even more so to talk about a particular situation or a weekend spent together.

For this reason, you can simply prepare original answer, which will not oblige you:

  • Everything is perfect
  • Thank you excellent. What about your life?
  • There's nothing to complain about.

How to answer the question “How are you?” guy?

In order to answer this question to a guy, you need to analyze your intimacy. You can answer as expressing your sympathy, and in a rough form. In other words, you can give a closed and open answer.

If you answer openly, you will encourage the other person to continue the conversation. A closed answer is a signal that you are not in the mood to talk right now.

Are you attracted to the guy? In this case, it is worth taking advantage of some reticence, for example:

  • Very good. After all, you started a conversation with me. How are you doing?
  • Great, I'm improving! Will you join me?
  • I smile and communicate with you. Guess.

In cases where the relationship with a guy not the best, you can answer something like this:

  • Mood swings, tummy tugs and much more due to PMS. And how are you doing?
  • What kind of business do you think I might have?
  • I was drawing, now I had to take a break from this enjoyable activity.
  • Do you have good reason to ask me this?

You can also answer more neutral, but closed:

  • Everything is fine.
  • I'm digging in my head.
  • I meditate.

Options for answering the question “How are you doing?” incredible amount! The main thing is to correctly assess the interlocutor. After all, we all should show respect even to strangers. We should not forget that we must behave the way we would like people to behave towards us.

Unfortunately, many people don’t want to understand this, but you shouldn’t follow them. If you answer the question correctly, people can place in one's favor, and if necessary, let them know that you are not ready to talk.

You can even answer in English. If everything is good, we say: “Fine, thanks.” If you are not in the best mood, you can answer: “Could be better.”

Answering in English, in your pocket several advantages, for example, this is creative, in addition, such an answer will be more superficial, and it is unlikely that the interlocutor will want to know even more about your life.

If you are still interested in the life of your interlocutor, it is better to reciprocate. You can ask yourself whether he is doing well, and after analyzing the answer, you can offer to celebrate (if everything is good) with delicious ice cream or to cheer him up (when things are not so good) with delicious coffee.

If I suddenly found myself next to you right now, do you think we would kiss?

This question is an original invitation to yourself into her bed.

In the modern Russian language there is an emerging trend according to which the phrase “how are you?” refers to a speech etiquette formula. It's easy to explain. When addressing a person with the words “how are you?”, we do not want to receive a detailed answer about how his life is currently going in different areas; most likely, we are simply expressing our sympathetic attitude. Therefore, the answers are usually short - good, not bad, everything is fine. In some countries, people who ask the question “how are you?” don’t even bother to wait for an answer. However, if you are really concerned about a person’s state of affairs, but are tired, like a parrot, of repeating the same thing day after day, we offer you alternative options for how to ask “how are you?” in an original way.

the great and mighty Russian language

In the Russian language there are a lot of options with which you can diversify the same question. Here are some of them:

  • How are you doing?
  • What's up?
  • How are you?
  • well, how are you?
  • Everything is fine?
  • what's new?
  • how is it going?
  • how is it?

The phrase "how are you?" in different languages ​​of the world

If you want, you can show off your knowledge and ask a question that interests you in a foreign language. It will be very original. You can even use a new language every day.

In English

  • How are you? [how a yu] - literally: how are you?

French

  • Comment vas tu? [komon wa chu] - literally: how are you doing?
  • comment allez vous? [komon talevu] - literally: how is it going with you?

Remember that the stress in French is on the last syllable. Well, and the most informal phrase: ça va? [sa wa]

In German

  • Wie geht"s? [wie gates]

In Spanish

  • What do you think? [como estas]

In Italian

  • Come stay? [kome stay]

In Polish

  • Jak sie masz? [yak shi mash]

In Vietnamese

  • bạn thế nào? [ban tae nao]

other methods

In the end, you can always ask a person how he feels, whether he needs your help, how the previous day went, how his mood is. This will serve as a replacement for the boring phrase. In addition, you can always ask what happened if you see that a person has changed his face.

If, on the contrary, you have not seen a person for a long time and want to be original when meeting, you can say this: “You have changed. Perhaps your life has too?” Or vice versa: “You haven’t changed. What about your life?”

Remember, even if you don’t find the inspiration to come up with original phrases, even a banal “how are you?” better than silence.

Every day we hear “How are you?”, “How is life?” and “What are you doing?” several times. These questions are most often asked out of politeness, or to keep the conversation going.

We say something in response, without thinking about the meaning of what was said. In fact, there is actually a correct answer to all these questions, which depends on the current situation and the interlocutor. Let's consider a wide variety of options to answer the question “How are you?”

Standard answers

When everything is fine

  • "I'm fine, and you?". By doing this, you give your interlocutor the opportunity to tell about yourself.
  • "Great!". Charge your interlocutor with a good mood, tactfully making it clear that you do not intend to listen to negativity.
  • “Normal” A neutral answer, non-binding.

When things are bad

Here the answer depends on how willing you are to share information about your personal (work) affairs with your interlocutor, and whether he will be interested in listening to your emotional outpourings.

  • “Not very” You hint at the subsequent question - “Why so?”
  • "Doesn't matter…." Details follow.
  • “It’s bad, but I don’t want to talk about it.” Next, the interlocutor waits for you to ask, “What news do you have?”


Subtleties of etiquette

Etiquette rules discourage giving answers that could be misunderstood or poorly interpreted. The person asks this question out of politeness, and does not expect a long story about your problems.

If you are guided by etiquette, the most optimal answer would be “Wonderful” or “Normal”.

You can only practice wit when communicating with people you know well: otherwise, your sense of humor may be misinterpreted.

The answer to the most popular question is dictated primarily by those who ask it. The caustic, sometimes vulgar phrases such as “she hasn’t given birth yet”, “the prosecutor’s business”, which are acceptable when communicating with peers, will be unacceptable to the older generation, bosses, and parents. In these cases, the answer should be short and concise.


Parents
- a separate topic. These are the only people who are sincerely interested in your affairs. Therefore, the answer must be specific and comprehensive to the smallest detail. Don’t forget to inquire about your mom or dad’s health in return.

Boss. He is absolutely not interested in your personal affairs. By asking the question “How are you?” he means work. Therefore, as an answer, he expects a detailed report on the latest achievements. In exceptional cases (for example, a corporate event), you can limit yourself to a banal “Okay,” be sure to add “Thank you.” It's enough.

Playful and funny answers are most appropriate in Internet (SMS) correspondence and when communicating with young people. Friends will always find something to talk about, so here you can give yourself free rein.

  • I'm still alive and that's why I'm happy.
  • Now I’ll tell you, you’ll start to be jealous, I’d better not say anything.
  • Like in a horror movie - the further you go, the more breathtaking it becomes.
  • With the letter X (don't think it's good).
  • Get crazy.

At work

The main thing here is subordination and corporate ethics. The answer should be brief, without irony or sarcasm.

  • It’s normal, how about you (what’s the news).
  • Everything is the same.
  • OK, thank you.

On the personal front

Not everyone is interested in knowing all the details of the personal life of the interlocutor. And if you are not going to tell anyone all the details, then these options are suitable here.

  • Thanks, nothing new.
  • Everything is fine.
  • How are you (you)?
  • Not complaining.

Rough

Statements in a rude form are used in cases where the very question “how are you” comes from the lips of a person who is unpleasant to you. This is a kind of protective reflex that is triggered in those moments when you want to protect yourself from annoying communication.

  • Back off
  • Go to hell
  • None of your business

To a stranger

This question is the most popular for first acquaintance - during correspondence or a casual meeting. The answer should make it clear to the stranger whether you intend to continue communication or not.

To continue dating, you can answer something like this:

  • Everything is great, as usual.
  • Thank you, great.
  • Just like others.

In this case, it is inappropriate to shine with wit. Answers like “Like on Mars - there is no life”, “Things are moving along, but they’re passing by”, “It could have been worse” are better reserved for a more appropriate occasion.

If your intentions are not to continue communication, then it is better to immediately, in a polite manner, make it clear.

The optimal answers in this situation would be:

  • I'm married (to a guy).
  • I'm married to (a girl).
  • None of your business (rude, but it works).
  • You won't be interested.
  • You've made a mistake.

How can you respond nicely to a question?

"What's up?"

  • Life is like a striped zebra.
  • Today is better than yesterday.
  • Wonderful, and I wish the same for you.
  • The best, but no one is jealous.
  • I'm doing great, looking forward to the next question.
  • As you asked, things have gotten better (a little rough).
  • It depends on what you compare it to.
  • It hits like a fountain and hits everyone on the head.

"What are you doing?"

  • I’m improving (or I’m degrading), let’s do it together.
  • I'm surfing the Internet and texting.
  • I prefer to listen to others.
  • Guess! You have the opportunity to ask leading questions.
  • I ignore it.
  • I'm trying to remove you from my contact list.
  • I meditate (live, breathe, etc.)
  • I'm flying on a hang glider (parachute, airship).
  • I’m reading a report (taking an exam, a test).
  • Sorry, I'm underwater, I can't talk.

In correspondence, after the question “How are you?” most often followed by the no less banal “What are you doing?” Here you can finally show your imagination. The person who asked this question usually expects the answer “I’m working,” to which he will ask the counter question “Where and by whom?”

You can turn the conversation in a different direction with a cool and unusual answer, depending on whether you want to “send” your interlocutor in an original way, or are in the mood for a friendly conversation in a positive way.
