Tired of the same old get-to-know-you questions? Whether you’re on date 1 or 100, here are some funny questions you should be asking your partner.

Get-to-know-you questions can be such a bore.

You feel like a robot reciting your questions, and soon, your conversation grows stale.

Fear not, for funny questions are on the way! What’s great about these fun games and even funnier questions is that they always manage to reveal new things about your partner, whether you’ve been with them for 2 months or 2 years.

Funny questions about life

Sometimes, life seems to play out just like your favorite sitcom – more fun to watch than to live, in some cases!

iPod library comparison questions

A fun and sometimes hilariously embarrassing game to play with your partner is an iPod or iTunes comparison game. Go through each letter of the alphabet and read off the bands in your library with the corresponding letters. What says more about a person than their musical tastes?

This may not sound funny at first, but once you find out about your girlfriend’s still lively Hanson obsession, or your boyfriend’s secret desire to sing just like Prince, things can start to get interesting.

#4 Would you rather only be able to watch elderly porn, or NO porn for the rest of your life? I hope they choose “no porn,” for the record.

Silly questions

Some questions are designed to deepen your relationship, while others are just designed to bring out your silly side. Throw boring get-to-know-you staples to the wind, and engage your partner in some downright silly questions to get their mind whirling.

#1 Can you recite the alphabet backwards? Don’t just ask, put them to the test!

#3 Do you have any weird hidden talents? If they say yes, make them show it off!

#4 What’s the best prank or surprise you’ve ever pulled off? This is another one whose answer can either result in knee-slapping hilarity, or just plain adorableness.

Fun and sexy questions

Asking your partner sex questions doesn’t always have to involve them revealing a torrid sexual rendezvous or secret kink through a game of “would you rather.” Instead, focus on the funnier aspects of sexy questions, and you may just find yourself howling with laughter.

#1 Did your parents ever sit you down to have the sex talk? Who doesn’t love awkward stories about their mate’s parents? Having the birds and the bees explained to you by the ‘rents makes for a great conversation piece.

#2 Ever faked an orgasm? If so, why? The answers to this question can be quite funny, depending on the circumstance… More so if the one answering “yes” is a male!

#3 Have you ever walked in on your parents having sex or have they ever walked in on you? I have asked this question to all my past boyfriends, and they all said yes to either the first or second question. The stories, while I’m sure are absolutely horrifying at the time, are definitely comedy gold in the present day.

#4 Have you ever sent an inappropriate text to the wrong person? Sending a scantily clad picture of your new Victoria’s Secret bra to grandma by mistake? Priceless. Just one of the many reasons you should never, ever, sext questionable photos of yourself to anyone… especially not grandma!

Some of these questions may be embarrassing to think about asking your partner, but the answers may have you giggling for weeks. Don’t take yourself or your partner so seriously!
