List of topics to talk about

I’ve separated the topics into sections (topics to get the conversation started, topics

to get to know someone, tech topics, personal history, and random topics)

Under each topic are a few sample questions to get you started and to help you think of other questions But remember that these are just the beginning of the question you can ask There are many more possible questions for each topic Come up with your own questions based on their answers or from your own creativity

Once you stumble upon something interesting or something they are interested in, keep talking about that for a while Branch off from your initial topic and ask follow up questions about whatever they seem interested in Usually people like talking about themselves, so it’s usually good to focus on them and be a good listener with occasional prompting follow up questions

So for example, if you are waiting for something you might ask how long they’ve been waiting Or if you are at a show or an event you might ask if they’ve seen the performer or speaker before If you are traveling somewhere you might ask where the other person is headed If you are at place that is serving food, talk about the food If there is music playing, talk about the music

How long have you worked there?

What’s your favorite book?

This topic usually only works if you both have children So you have something

in common to talk about If one of you doesn’t have children, you might want to skip this topic

Are there any comedians you really like?

What are some of your favorite comedies?

What websites do you spend the most time on?

What awards or trophies have you won?

What is the next big thing you want to accomplish?

When was the last time you went fishing?

What do you do that makes you happy in the short term but makes you unhappy

in the long term?

At what age would you like to retire?

Given the chance, would you go to colonize Mars if you knew you would never

be coming back to Earth?

Do you like exercising or lifting weights?

Where is the most beautiful / dirtiest place you’ve swum?

What’s the most important lesson people can learn from history?
