Real talk: Keeping a conversation going with a guy—especially one you, ahem, like—can be tricky sometimes. Fortunately, we have the perfect solution to fill any awkward silence that may befall your talking stage: asking questions. Whether you’re looking to strike up a conversation with your crush, spice up a run-of-the-mill convo with your partner by asking some sexy questions, or looking to get to know your long-term love even better than you already do, asking questions is a great way to strengthen your bond, reheat a lukewarm text sesh, or just get better acquainted with someone you have your eye on. Hence why it’s always a good idea to have a handy list of questions to ask a guy in your back pocket—and hence why we’ve rounded up this list of options for your inspiration.

Now, you don’t want to just rattle off random questions at the dude like it’s an interrogation. (That said, suggesting a round of 20 Questions is actually a great way to revive a fading text convo.) Ideally, you’ll want to, uh, actually pay attention to what he’s saying and respond with relevant Qs that encourage him to go into more detail. But if you need to break an awkward silence or rekindle a flagging converastion, dropping a fun and thought-provoking question can be just the thing to get the vibes back on track.

Should you find yourself in need of a little inspo, here are literally 153 questions to ask a guy, from light and low key to fun and flirty to hot and heavy. Keep these in mind for your next date night or sprinkle them into tonight’s texting convo, and I can assure you no awkward silence will go unfilled.
