20 Awkward Questions to Ask a Guy

Show me a woman who hasn’t put her foot in her mouth at one time or another with a man, and I’ll show you a liar. Every single one of us – even the most sophisticated and elegant women in the world – has put their foot in the mouth from time to time. We have a thought and that thought makes its way out of our mouths about two seconds before our brain says, “Yeah, no…keep that one to yourself,” but then it’s too late. It’s awkward. So, so awkward. We mean well, we really do. But sometimes we don’t phrase things as well as we might have had we taken a few minutes to think that through.

With a girlfriend, we can laugh it off. With a guy, we have two choices: admit to speaking before thinking or play it off as a joke. Either way, prepare to see a recap of your most awkward moment on social media ASAP. On that note, we can’t stop you from making things awkward all the time, but we can help you by providing this list of questions you just shouldn’t ask a guy. Like, ever.
