We'll get along if: how to answer it (with examples)
By the bestsideofyou teamLast updated
“We'll get along if” is about shared habits and tastes, so name one specific thing you'd do or enjoy together. Pick a small, real detail (a snack, a routine, an opinion) that says something about you. The best answers make the right person think “that's me.”
What this prompt reveals about you
Your everyday personality and what you'd share with someone. It works as a filter in a friendly way. A good answer reads like an inside joke someone can join.
8 example answers
Illustrative examples written by us, not real profiles.
You also read the last page of a book first. I need to know if the dog lives.
You like long walks with no destination and stop for every cat on a windowsill.
You think breakfast for dinner is a complete personality. Mine is pancakes. Yours had better be good.
You leave parties early without announcing it. I'll meet you by the coats.
You call your mum on the way home and you're not embarrassed about it.
You can handle a little competition. I'm undefeated at Monopoly Deal and I don't intend to stop.
You have a favorite gas station. Mine has the good ice. I will drive past three others.
You get excited about seasonal soups. October is my Christmas. I own four soup pots.
Common mistakes
You're chill and down for anything.
You'll happily sit through a three-hour film festival documentary about cheese with me. I've already bought the tickets.
“Chill” and “down for anything” are on most profiles. Give one real activity.
You like dogs.
You'll stop mid-sentence to greet a dog. I will do the same. Our conversations will take hours.
Liking dogs is common. Show how you are about them.
You're nice.
You let people merge in traffic and still wave when they don't wave back.
“Nice” is a label. A small scene shows it.
Pair it with
Pair it with a candid photo with friends, which quietly shows you get along with people.
- I'll fall for you if
- The key to my heart is
- We're the same type of weird if
- A photo: candid, mid-laugh. Shows what you are like when you are not posing. Ask a friend to talk to you while they shoot.
- A photo: with friends, you obvious. Shows you have people. One photo is enough, and you should be easy to find in it.

Questions people ask
Is this the same as “We're the same type of weird if”?
Close. “We'll get along if” is more about everyday habits; “same type of weird” is for odder quirks. Pick one.
Should I list several things?
One or two at most. A long list reads like requirements.
Can I use a strong opinion?
Yes, a light, funny opinion works well and gives people something to argue with.
