What is a question I can ask that someone HAS to reply?

I have a friend who answers “No” every time I text him while he is in the same room. Any ideas on how to make him crack?

you could possibly ask a Who, What, When, Where, How question…if he answers “no” to one of those not only does his answer not make any sense you should just give up

Well- He doesn’t mean “no” to the question… he means “No, I will not reply”… therefore I need some question he can’t resist replying to.

Your best bet would be to ask something really personal and something that could be embarrassing if he does not answer

Like maybe Are you gay?
and if he responds no i will not reply
you could then say… Oh SO you are (if he continues you can then say you know another gay person and maybe you can hook them two up)

Or you can even go more personal (eventually he will have to answer the question because there are just somethings that he just wouldnt want people (you) to assume

I’ve tried questions based on inside jokes, or not so inside jokes…. and I’ve tried a couple of those Personal ones.

I’m almost wondering if I shouldn’t ask a question. … he’s good at ignoring that.

he probably knows what you are doing and he probably knows you are only asking him to get him to answer…. in that case nothing you say will get him to answer

maybe lay off a couple days then catch him with his guard down
