Well, buckle in Cliq–ers, because we’re about to dive into the world of questions, helping to give you the confidence you’ll need for your first date/s or meet-ups.  

Just like peeling layers off an onion, the right questions help you to unravel the unique qualities that make up a person.  

Without further ado, let’s talk about the art of asking questions that help set the stage for amazing connections. 

So, you’ve taken the plunge and started a conversation on Cliq – kudos to you! Now, what’s the next step to ensure those early interactions become the building blocks of something special?  

It’s all about asking the right questions. But what’s the right questions to ask? Well, you can start with the basics about family, friends, work, life etc, remembering that there’s no right or wrong, as it’s always better to ask more questions and show you’re interested rather than talking about yourself the whole time! But once you’ve worked your way through those questions, here’s a few other pointers to mix things up and get the conversation flowing!  

1. The Icebreaker: Start with a bang! Ask about their go-to ice cream flavour, favourite childhood cartoon, or the last song that made them dance. It’s all about breaking the ice and discovering the fun quirks that make each of us unique. 
    

2. Passions and Pursuits: Dive into their world of interests. What hobbies light up their days? Whether it’s painting, stargazing, or collecting vintage stamps, understanding a person’s passions can reveal shared interests and ignite engaging conversations. 
    

3. Travel stories: Dream destinations, bucket list adventures – everyone has them! Discover the wanderlust within and share your travel dreams. Who knows, your next connection might be a fellow explorer with a passion for the same hidden gems. 
    

4. For the foodies: Bonding over food is a universal joy. Ask about their favourite comfort meal, the weirdest thing they’ve ever eaten, or the cuisine they’re dying to try. Food connects us all, and discovering food likes and dislikes can be the gateway to delicious connections. 
    

5. Bookworms: Books are portals to different worlds. Ask about the last book that stole their heart or the one they’ve been itching to read. Discussions about books also open the door to new recommendations. 
    

6. Movie Magic: Everyone loves a good movie. Inquire about their all-time favourite film or the last movie that made them laugh or cry. It’s a great way to gauge their sense of humour and emotional depth. 
    

7. Life’s Joys: Find out about the small things that bring them joy – a favourite childhood memory, a cherished tradition, or the simple pleasures that light up their day. These details can create a foundation for shared happiness. 
    

8. Goals and Ambitions: Envisioning the future together can be exciting. Ask about their short-term goals and long-term aspirations. Understanding each other’s dreams helps pave the way for mutual support and encouragement. 
    

9. The Laughter Test: End on a light note! Ask about the last thing that made them laugh uncontrollably. Sharing funny stories sets a positive tone and ensures that your Cliq conversation feels fun from the get-go. 

    

Remember, Cliq Connection is all about authentic interactions and finding the people that will one day make up your ‘clique.’ These questions are just the beginning – let the conversation flow and enjoy discovering the distinct story that makes each connection special. Good luck asking those weird and wonderful questions, and we look forward to hearing how it all goes!
