1. Common Phrases You’ll Need for a Date
So, you have met your Hindi love interest. Congratulations! Who knows where this could take you…?! However, the two of you have just met and you’re not ready to say the Hindi word for love just yet. Great, it is better to get to know him/her first. Wow your prospective love by using these Hindi date phrases to set up a spectacular first date.
Would you like to go out to dinner with me?
- क्या तुम मेरे साथ रात को बाहर खाने चलोगी?
- kyaa Tum mere SaaTH raaT ko baahar khaaNe calogii?
The important question! In most cultures, this phrase indicates: ‘I’m romantically interested in you’. Flirting in Hindi is no different, so don’t take your date to Mcdonald’s!
Are you free this weekend?
- क्या तुम इस सप्ताहांत को फ्री हो?
- kyaa Tum iS SapTaahaaNT ko frii ho?
This is a preamble to asking your love interest on a date. If you get an immediate ‘Yes’, that’s good news!
Would you like to hang out with me?
- तुम मेरे साथ समय बिताना चाहोगी?
- Tum mere SaaTH Samay biTaaNaa caahogii?
You like her/him, but you’re not sure if there’s chemistry. Ask them to hang out first to see if a dinner date is next.
What time shall we meet tomorrow?
- कल हम कितने बजे मिले?
- kal ham kiTNe baje milen?
Set a time, and be sure to arrive early! Nothing spoils a potential relationship more than a tardy date.
Where shall we meet?
- कल हम कहाँ मिलें?
- kal ham kahaan milen?
You can ask this, but also suggest a place.
You look great.
- तुम बहुत अच्छी लग रही हो।
- Tum bahuT acchii lag rahii ho.
A wonderful ice breaker! This phrase will help them relax a bit – they probably took great care to look their best just for you.
You are so cute.
- तुम बहुत प्यारी हो|
- Tum bahuT pyaarii ho.
If the two of you are getting on really well, this is a fun, flirtatious phrase to use.
What do you think of this place?
- यह जगह कैसी लगती है?
- yah jagah kaiSii lagTii hai?
This another good conversation starter. Show off your Hindi language skills!
Can I see you again?
- क्या मैं तुमसे फिरसे मिल सकता हूँ?
- kyaa main TumSe phirSe mil SakTaa huun?
So the date went really well – don’t waste time! Make sure you will see each other again.
Shall we go somewhere else?
- हम कहीं और चलें?
- ham kahiin aur calen?
If the place you meet at is not great, you can suggest going elsewhere. It is also a good question to follow the previous one. Variety is the spice of life!
I know a good place.
- मुझे एक अच्छी जगह पता है।
- mujhe ek acchii jagah paTaa hai.
Use this with the previous question. However, don’t say if you don’t know a good place!
I will drive you home.
- मैं तुम्हें गाड़ी में घर छोड़ देता हूँ।
- main Tumhe gaadii mein ghar chod DeTaa huun.
If your date doesn’t have transport, this is a polite, considerate offer. However, don’t be offended if she/he turns you down on the first date. Especially a woman might not feel comfortable letting you drive her home when the two of you are still basically strangers.
That was a great evening.
- यह शाम बहुत अच्छी गयी।
- yah saam bahuT acchii gayii.
This is a good phrase to end the evening with.
When can I see you again?
- अगली मुलाकात कब होगी?
- aglii mulaakaaT kab hogii?
If he/she replied ‘Yes’ to ‘Can I see you again?’, this is the next important question.
I’ll call you.
- मैं तुम्हे फ़ोन करूँगा।
- main Tumhe foN karuuNgaa.
Say this only if you really mean to do it. In many cultures, this could imply that you’re keeping the proverbial backdoor open.

2. The Most Romantic Ideas for a Date
You learned all the Hindi phrases to make a date – congratulations! Now you have to decide where to meet, which can be tricky. Discuss these options with your lover to gauge whether you like the same things. Check out romantic date ideas in Hindi below!
museum
- संग्रहालय
- sangraahlay
If you’re looking for unique date ideas that are fun but won’t break the bank, museums are the perfect spot! You won’t be running out of things to say in the conversations.
candlelit dinner
- मोमबत्ती की रोशनी में रात का खाना
- mombaTTii kii rosNii mein raaT kaa khaaNaa
A candlelit dinner is perhaps best to reserve for when the relationship is getting serious. It’s very intimate, and says: “Romance!” It’s a fantastic choice if you’re sure you and your date are in love with each other!
go to the zoo
- चिड़ियाघर जाना
- cidiyaaghar jaaNaa
This is a good choice for shy lovers who want to get the conversation going. Just make sure your date likes zoos, as some people dislike them. Maybe not for the first date, but this is also a great choice if your lover has children – you’ll win his/her adoration for inviting them along!
go for a long walk
- एक लंबी सैर के लिए जाना
- ek lambii Sair ke le jaaNaa
Need to talk about serious stuff, or just want to relax with your date? Walking together is soothing, and a habit you can keep up together always! Just make sure it’s a beautiful walk that’s not too strenuous.
go to the opera
- ओपेरा के लिए जाना
- operaa ke lie jaaNaa
This type of date should only be attempted if both of you love the opera. It can be a special treat, followed by a candlelit dinner!
go to the aquarium
- ऐक्वेरियम जाना
- aikweriyam jaaNaa
Going to the aquarium is another good idea if you need topics for conversation, or if you need to impress your lover’s kids! Make sure your date doesn’t have a problem with aquariums.
walk on the beach
- समुन्दर किनारे चलने जाना
- SamuNDar kiNaare calNe jaaNaa
This can be a very romantic stroll, especially at night! The sea is often associated with romance and beauty.
have a picnic
- पिकनिक पर जाना
- pikNik par jaaNaa
If you and your date need to get more comfortable together, this can be a fantastic date. Spending time in nature is soothing and calms the nerves.
cook a meal together
- एक साथ खाना पकाना
- ek SaaTH khaaNaa pakaaNaa
If you want to get an idea of your date’s true character in one go, this is an excellent date! You will quickly see if the two of you can work together in a confined space. If it works, it will be fantastic for the relationship and create a sense of intimacy. If not, you will probably part ways!
have dinner and see a movie
- रात का खाना खाना और एक फिल्म देखना
- raaT kaa khaaNaa khaaNaa aur ek film DekhNaa
This is traditional date choice works perfectly well. Just make sure you and your date like the same kind of movies!

4. Hindi Love Phrases for Valentine’s Day
So, you now have the basic Valentine’s Day vocabulary under your belt. Well done! But, do you know how to say ‘I love you’ in Hindi yet? Or perhaps you are still only friends. So, do you know how to say ‘I like you’ or ‘I have a crush on you’ in Hindi? No? Don’t worry, here are all the love phrases you need to bowl over your Hindi love on this special day!
I love you.
- मै तुम्हे प्यार करती हूँ
- mai tumhe pyaar kartii hun.
Saying ‘I love you’ in Hindi carries the same weight as in all languages. Use this only if you’re sure and sincere about your feelings for your partner/friend.
You mean so much to me.
- तुम मेरे लिए बहुत महत्व रखती हो|
- Tum mere liye bahuT mahaTv rakhTii ho
This is a beautiful expression of gratitude that will enhance any relationship! It makes the receiver feel appreciated and their efforts recognized.
Will you be my Valentine?
- कया तुम मेरी वैलेनटायिन बनोगी?
- kya tum meri valentine bannogi?
With these words, you are taking your relationship to the next level! Or, if you have been a couple for a while, it shows that you still feel the romance. So, go for it!
You’re so beautiful.
- आप बहुत खूबसूरत हैं|
- aap bahuT khoobsooraT hain
If you don’t know how to say ‘You’re pretty’ in Hindi, this is a good substitute, gentlemen!
I think of you as more than a friend.
- मै आपके बारे में एक दोस्त से अधिक सोचता हुँ
- mai aapke baare mein ek Dost se adhik sochTaa hun
Say this if you are not yet sure that your romantic feelings are reciprocated. It is also a safe go-to if you’re unsure about the Hindi dating culture.
A hundred hearts would be too few to carry all my love for you.
- सौ दिल भी कम रहेंगे तुम्हारे प्रती मेरे प्यार को दिखाने के लिये
- sau Dil bhi kam rahenge Tumhaare praTi mere pyaar ko Dikhaane ke liye
You romantic you…! When your heart overflows with love, this would be the best phrase to use.
Love is just love. It can never be explained.
- प्यार सिर्फ प्यार है. यह कभी समझाया नही जा सकता|
- pyaar sirf pyaar hai| yah kabhii samjhaaya nahii ja sakTaa
If you fell in love unexpectedly or inexplicably, this one’s for you.
You’re so handsome.
- तुम बहुत सुंदर हो|
- Tum bahuT sunDar ho
Ladies, this phrase lets your Hindi love know how much you appreciate his looks! Don’t be shy to use it; men like compliments too.
I’ve got a crush on you.
- मेरा तुम्हारे उपर क्रश है
- meraa Tumhaare upar krash hai
If you like someone, but you’re unsure about starting a relationship, it would be prudent to say this. It simply means that you like someone very, very much and think they’re amazing.
You make me want to be a better man.
- आप मुझे एक बेहतर आदमी बनाने के लिये प्रेरित करते हो|
- aap mujhe ek behTar aaDmii banaane ke liye preriT karTe ho
Gentlemen, don’t claim this phrase as your own! It hails from the movie ‘As Good as it Gets’, but it is sure to make your Hindi girlfriend feel very special. Let her know that she inspires you!
Let all that you do be done in love.
- तुम जो भी करो प्यार में करो
- Tum jo bhi karo pyaar mein karo
We hope.
You are my sunshine, my love.
- तुम मेरी रोशनी हो मेरा प्यार हो
- Tum merii roshnii ho meraa pyaar ho
A compliment that lets your lover know they bring a special quality to your life. Really nice!
Words can’t describe my love for you.
- शब्द आप के लिए मेरे प्यार का वर्णन नहीं कर सकते हैं।
- shabD aapke liye mere pyaar ka vaRnan nahii kar sakTe hain
Better say this when you’re feeling serious about the relationship! It means that your feelings are very intense.
We were meant to be together.
- हम एक दूसरे के लिए बने हैं
- hum ek Doosre ke liye bane hain
This is a loving affirmation that shows you see a future together, and that you feel a special bond with your partner.
If you were thinking about someone while reading this, you’re definitely in love.
- इसे पढ़ते समय अगर आप किसी के बारे में सोच रहे थे, तो निश्चित रूप से आप प्यार में हैं.
- isay padhTe samay agar aap kissi ke baare mein soch rahe the toh nishchiT roop se aap pyaar mein hain

7. 15 Most Common Break-Up Lines
Instead of moving towards marriage or a long-term relationship, you find that the spark is not there for you. That is a pity! But even though breaking up is never easy, continuing a bad or unfulfilling relationship would be even harder. Remember to be kind to the person you are going to say goodbye to; respect and sensitivity cost nothing. Here are some phrases to help you break up gently.
- हमें ज़रूरी बात करनी है
- hamein zaruurii baaT karNii hai
This is not really a break-up line, but it is a good conversation opener with a serious tone.
It’s not you. It’s me.
- यह तुम नही हो | यह में हूँ |
- Yeh tum nahīn hoo. Yeh mein hoo.
As long as you mean it, this can be a kind thing to say. It means that there’s nothing wrong with your Hindi lover as a person, but that you need something different from a relationship.
I’m just not ready for this kind of relationship.
- में इस तरह के संबंध के लिए तैयार नही हूँ |
- mein iss tarah ke sambandh ke liye teyaar nahi hoon.
Things moved a bit fast and got too intense, too soon? Painful as it is, honesty is often the best way to break up with somebody.
Let’s just be friends.
- चलिए सिर्फ दोस्त बने रहते हैं।
- Cali’ē sirf dōst banē rehatē hai.
If the relationship was very intense, and you have sent many ‘i love u’ texts in Hindi, this would not be a good breakup line. Feelings need to calm down before you can be friends, if ever. If the relationship has not really developed yet, a friendship would be possible.
I think we need a break.
- मुझे लगता है हमे एक ब्रेक की जरूरत है।
- Mujhē lagatā hai hhme ēk brēk kī jarūrat hai.
This is again honest, and to the point. No need to play with someone’s emotions by not letting them know how you feel. However, this could imply that you may fall in love with him/her again after a period of time, so use with discretion.
You deserve better.
- तुम इससे बेहतर के लायक हो ।
- tum iss se behtar ke layak hoo.
Yes, he/she probably deserves a better relationship if your own feelings have cooled down.
We should start seeing other people.
- हमे दुसरे लोगों को देखना शरू करना देना चाहिए।
- hume doosre logo ko dekhna shuroo kar dena chaiye.
This is probably the least gentle break-up phrase, so reserve it for a lover that doesn’t get the message!
I need my space.
- मुझे अपनी जगह की जरूरत है।
- Mujhe apanī jagaha kī jarūrata hai.
When a person is too clingy or demanding, this would be an suitable break-up phrase. It is another good go-to for that lover who doesn’t get the message!
I think we’re moving too fast.
- मुझे लगता है हम बहुत तेजी से बढ़ रहे हैं।
- Mujhē lagatā hai hum bhut tējī sē badd rahē hai.
Say this if you want to keep the relationship, but need to slow down its progress a bit. It is also good if you feel things are getting too intense for your liking. However, it is not really a break-up line, so be careful not to mislead.
I need to focus on my career.
- मुझे अपने कैरियर पर ध्यान केंद्रित करने की जरूरत है।
- Mujhe apnē kariyer par dhyān kēndrit karanē kī jarūrat hai.
If you feel that you will not be able to give 100% in a relationship due to career demands, this is the phrase to use. It’s also good if you are unwilling to give up your career for a relationship.
I’m not good enough for you.
- मैं तुम्हारे लिए बहुत अच्छा नहीं हूँ।
- Mein tumhārē liyē bahut acchā nahī hoo.
Say this only if you really believe it, or you’ll end up sounding false. Break-ups are usually hard for the receiving party, so don’t insult him/her with an insincere comment.
I just don’t love you anymore.
- बस अब में तुम्हे ओर प्यार नहीं करता ।
- bus ab mein tumhe or pyar nahi karta.
This harsh line is sometimes the best one to use if you are struggling to get through to a stubborn, clingy lover who won’t accept your break up. Use it as a last resort. Then switch your phone off and block their emails!
We’re just not right for each other.
- हम सिर्फ एक-दूसरे के लिए सही नहीं है ।
- Hum sirf ēk-dūsarē kē liyē sahī nahī hai.
If this is how you truly feel, you need to say it. Be kind, gentle and polite.
It’s for the best.
- यह अच्छे के लिए है।
- Yah acche ke liye hai.
This phrase is called for if circumstances are difficult and the relationship is not progressing well. Love should enhance one’s life, not burden it!
We’ve grown apart.
- हम अलग हो गए है।
- Hum alag hō gaye hai.
Cross-cultural relationships are often long-distance ones, and it is easy to grow apart over time.
