While you search for questions to ask a stranger, the silence continues.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We have all been in the situation of talking to someone new, whether it\u2019s a new colleague, at a networking event, or even a stranger. If you\u2019re an introvert, you get tongue tied and stuck with uncomfortable silence, because you don\u2019t know what to say next. You don\u2019t know how to take the conversation forward.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Such situations are immense opportunities to have interesting conversations. You don\u2019t need to say too much, just ask a few questions to start great conversations. At the end of it, they would have spoken about themselves and enjoyed the conversation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here are some Questions to Ask a Stranger that can make you and the other person comfortable. Be prepared \u2014 you may or may not get an answer. The trick is to move to the next question if you are faced with silence.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Warm-up for a good start<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What was the highlight of your day (or week)?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You\u2019ve asked a positive question and the person is likely to feel good about themselves. If they\u2019re ready, they\u2019ll tell you what is making them happy. This isn\u2019t a personal question, so, there\u2019s a higher chance you\u2019ll get an answer to this one.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What book are you reading?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of course, before asking this question to stranger, you need to ask them if they read. This is an easy question for a person to answer. It\u2019s a great opening. It gives you insight into how they choose books (personal choice or a recommendation). To take this question a little deeper, you can ask them about a book that influenced them the most. This will become a more personal question and will deepen your connection. It does lead to interesting questions afterwards and a comfortable conversation too.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Begin exploring<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What\u2019s your story?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This open-ended question invites people to speak about themselves. There\u2019s a 50% chance for people to share something interesting about their lives.\u00a0 On the flip side, they may say they are ordinary and don\u2019t have a story. Don\u2019t lose heart. Take a deep breath and ask them another question.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Why did you choose your profession?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A person\u2019s choice of profession becomes a long story. If you listen closely, they\u2019ll reveal what defines them, what motivates them, who are the larger influencers in their life, and whether they\u2019re working just to pay the bills or to do what they love.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What was your dream job growing up?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is a way to take a person back in time. To understand their ambition and aspirations as a child. You could continue asking the person if their current profession matches their childhood ambitions. It shows you the strength and determination of the person to pursue what they want.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Go deep<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is one of your most defining moments in life?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is another great question that invites the speaker to share on a deeper level, which builds momentum and rapport quicker. Obviously, a few casual questions before this one helps set the mood for hearing about a profound moment or transition in that person&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You must have noticed that all these questions are about the other person. The best conversations happen when you are willing to listen, when you lead the other person to talk about themselves. Once they know you\u2019re doing this out of genuine curiosity, they\u2019ll start sharing and like you for talking about them. When you make it all about the other person, you can be sure that you\u2019ll be remembered for being interesting.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ready to take your English to the next level?<\/h3>\n<p>Join the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/step.thehindu.com\/blog\/step-coach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Online English Course<\/a>\u00a0by STEP from The Hindu Group and gain the skills to speak and write English accurately and effortlessly.<br \/>\nStart learning today \u2014 your fluency begins here!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Awkward smile. \u2018How are you?\u2019 Another awkward smile. \u2018It\u2019s really hot today.\u2019 You may even be &hellip; <a title=\"6 Questions to ask a Stranger | Conversation starters\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/step.thehindu.com\/blog\/questions-to-ask-a-stranger-conversation-starters\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">6 Questions to ask a Stranger | Conversation starters<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1242,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[148,167,169],"class_list":["post-1241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-personal-growth","tag-questions-to-ask-a-stranger","tag-speaking-to-a-stranger","tag-spoken-english"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>6 Questions to ask a stranger | Good Conversation starters<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Discover the best questions to ask a stranger and start conversations with confidence.
