100 Flirty Questions to Ask a Guy That Will Really Get His Attention
Updated: Mar. 28, 2024
Got a secret crush? A new boyfriend? A handsome husband? We've got the perfect flirty questions to ask a guy to fan the flames of love.
Witty banter. Batted eyelashes. A sexy smile. The art of flirting is a time-honored tradition that’s as fun as it is important when it comes to your romantic relationships—whether it’s a guy you’ve just met or the man you’ve been married to for years. “Flirting can break the ice, foster a sense of intrigue and excitement, and create a memorable impression,” says Elizabeth Campbell, a marriage and family therapist in Spokane, Washington. In established relationships, “it keeps the spark alive and deepens emotional connections, contributing to the longevity of romantic partnerships.” And the right flirty questions to ask a guy will definitely do the trick.
But before we reveal the best things to say, an important reminder: When it comes to flirting, how you say something matters just as much as what you say. Use a warm and inviting tone, maintain comfortable eye contact and offer a sincere smile to create connection, says Campbell. If you’re already in a relationship, add a flirty nickname to make things more intimate. Above all, though, be confident. There’s nothing sexier than a self-assured woman, and that can foster a sense of equality in your relationship too.
