What is the best question for someone to ask when they want to get to know you better?
Not to be confused with this question.
Assuming introductions have already occurred and you haven’t told them to leave you alone, what questions should someone ask that would help them get to know who you are and what you’re about?

What are my D&D stats? What do I spend my free time on?
Hmm. Here’s one I’ve never pondered before. Interesting.
Giving myself a moment to filter responses and look for the truth, I think it’s this: There’s probably no such question that you could ask me for that purpose that I wouldn’t answer evasively. That’s because before I let you get to know me better, I’m going to want to know who you are.
Nearly any question can be revealing, though, or lead to some revelation. Whatever you ask will tell me at least a little something about you. And then we’ll see.
“Oh, how cliché!”
Show them a big smile while looking them directly in the eye and say “Hi!” Then talk about something close by, like the music, or the weather.
Be natural! Be yourself! Be a friend!
“So, you got any STDs I need to know about?”
Here it is. You only have to ask me “what do you think of Trump?” With that, most folks discover that they really don’t want to know me after all.
“What can I ask you to get to know you better?”
To ask ME would be “So, do you have any kids?”
So, what do you think of Trump @stanleybmanly?
What I’m passionate about.
@Dutchess III I worship and adore him, and look forward to his canonization.
I, too, would love to see him being shot out of a cannon.
LOL!!! If I’d been drinking anything I would have spit it all over my keyboard @stanleybmanly!
A person could ask about something that they know to be common:
Example: You wouldn’t happen to watch tv every now and then would you?
or
You wouldn’t happen to use computers every so often would you?
Something like “Are you as self-conscious as I am right now?” – followed by “So, why does our species not solve its problems?”
I’m much more likely to be comfortable around strangers when I know they have experience with awkward social interactions. And I’ll tell you quite a lot about myself if you ask me a question I like.
But how do we know what kind of questions you like?! ;)
^ I don’t like that one.~
LOLL!! Well exuuuuuse me!!! :D
I don’t mean to cause any trouble and know to leave when someone says stop to me over and over again but I want to learn, I want to understand, I want to be good…what does it mean to know you can ask a question? I have to leave the room when I do…so you ask certain questions or is it about the person? I don’t…I don’t know and want to know..but I understand if you want to repeat the word stop to me like this stop stop stop stop stop stop stop and have me never bother you again…
First, if some one tells you to “stop over and over again…” then you’ve gone about two overs (or more) past the stopping point. If they tell you to stop, then stop. It’s not rocket science.
The question is about some person asking some neutral question of you in order to get to know you better. Something like, “So, do you have any kids?” not questions where the other party wants to scream “STOP!” at you.
