5 Proven Conversation Starters That Actually Work

  1. "What's been the highlight of your week so far?" - Opens up positive sharing opportunities
  2. "I noticed you're into [hobby/interest]. How did you get started with that?" - Shows you pay attention to their profile
  3. "If you could have dinner with anyone, living or dead, who would it be?" - Reveals values and interests
  4. "What's something you've learned recently that excited you?" - Demonstrates intellectual curiosity
  5. "What's your favorite way to spend a Sunday afternoon?" - Gives insight into lifestyle compatibility

These conversation starters work because they're open-ended, positive, and encourage storytelling rather than simple yes/no responses.
