The right question turns a stranger into a real conversation in seconds. Here are the ones that actually work.
"What's something small that made you smile today?" "What are you into lately?" Easy to answer, impossible to fake.
"What's something you'd love to be good at?" "What's a place you think about going back to?" These open people up.
"What's a moment that changed how you see things?" "What do you wish more people asked you about?"
The best way to learn these? Use them on someone new. Match with a stranger and start asking.
