How to ask to get to know someone better

You can take it as a game, but the first thing you have to think about is that the key to asking questions is not to ask about their favorite color (which is also), but to ask questions focused on their values ​​to find out how much you have in common. Starting with more superficial questions and then moving on to deeper questions is a good idea to warm up little by little, practicing the slow dating.
