A flirty question or a dirty question is not ideal if you want to get to know a man deeper. The best questions to ask a guy you like are those that will make him think and reflect on himself.

1. What does your dream house look like?

Does he care about presentation and appearance or is he environmentally mindful? Frankly, a person's dream home being too consumptive or ego-seeking in nature might be the red flag you need to figure out whether to proceed.

2. Do you believe in making New Year resolutions?

You'll get a grasp on how his outlook on goal-setting, commitment, and this tradition comes with its own set of controversies.

3. What Makes You Unique?

It's a very open-ended deep question. The level of honesty he puts in his answer will tell you how much he thinks for himself vs. how tied down he feels to telling you the answer he thinks you want to hear.

4. What’s Your Favorite Place on Earth?

Does he think of the great outdoors and nature's magnificence or does he choose places based on community and people? You might note his introversion or extroversion.

5. What’s the best thing about your life right now?

The way a person perceives and learns from his experiences that might be frustrating for some and enlightening for others will show you whether he's a glass-half-full or glass-half-empty kind of person.

6. If you could only watch one movie for the rest of your life, what would it be?

What's your favorite movie? Is your celebrity crush there? Kidding aside, the movies that resonate most with us tend to contain remnants of past life memories.

7. Could You Live Without The Internet?

Beyond just yes or no, what is his level of dependency on the information superhighway? Has he been able to recall how the world is without social media? This is the right question to ask to know if he's able to live freely without the internet.

8. What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever done?

Doing stupid things in public is my biggest pet peeve. Regardless, humility and humbleness, and the ability to learn from mistakes will be revealed here.

9. What’s one thing about yourself, personality-wise, that you like?

Does he really know himself? Does he feel social or cultural pressure to self-deprecate? Is he accurate in his assessment of his personality? I don't know about you, but this question is the nicest thing to ask a person you want to know.

10. If you had to describe yourself in three words, what would they be?

Cliche word choices like "open-minded" and "spontaneous" vs. carefully conceived adjectives will tell you how in touch he is with himself and how much he believes he needs to present a certain image of himself.
