Questions about his future

It may sound a bit weird to ask questions related to a guy’s future on a first date! It’s because future is not something that you can make sure of. It’s true, but it’s something that you can predict by looking at the actions and planning done in the present time.

Asking questions about his future plans doesn’t mean that you are already sure to get married to him. The point is that you can have a clear view of your possible relationship. Why wasting time on a guy that doesn’t even care about his future? So let’s see what kind of future related questions you can ask him:

1. How do you see yourself 10 years from now?
2. What is your next goal for the near future?

4. What is your opinion about family and kids? Can you imagine yourself as a parent?
5. What is the next place you want and plan to travel?
