How to use this deck

  1. Pick your levels

    Turn on Light for a warm up, add Deep when you have time, and keep Flirty for when the mood is right.

  2. Draw a card

    Tap Next and read the question out loud. Let him answer fully before you jump in with your own.

  3. Answer it too

    Every question works both ways. Swap roles and one card turns into two stories.

  4. Save the good ones

    Tap the heart on any card worth revisiting, then send him your saved picks as a link.

Tips for a good round

  • Ask one follow up before moving on. “What made you think of that?” turns a short answer into a story.
  • Skip freely. Any card can be passed, no explanation needed.
  • Five good questions beat thirty rushed ones.
  • Try Deep on a walk or a drive, when you’re side by side instead of face to face.

Frequently asked questions

What are good questions to ask your boyfriend?

The best ones invite a story instead of a yes or no. Ask about specific moments, like the friendship that taught him the most or the smell that takes him back to childhood, rather than broad favorites. This deck mixes light, deep, flirty and future questions so you can match the mood you’re in.

Are these okay for a new relationship?

Yes. Start with Light, which is made for getting to know each other, and add Flirty when it feels natural. Deep and Us & future can wait until you’ve had a few real conversations; there’s no rush to cover them all.

How many questions should we do in one sitting?

Usually five to ten. A good question can easily fill fifteen minutes, and stopping while it’s still fun makes you want to come back. Use the heart to save the rest for another night.

Is it free, and do you keep our answers?

It’s free with no account. The deck never asks for your answers; you say them out loud. Favorites are saved in your own browser on this device, and nothing is sent anywhere.

Can I send these questions to my boyfriend?

Yes. Use “Send this deck to your partner” for a link to the whole deck, or heart a few cards and send your saved picks, which opens the deck with just those questions.
