Hobbies And Interests
Best Qualities
Create a list of questions focusing on what each of you likes best about each other and your relationship, such as: "What do I do that makes you smile"; "which part of my body do you like best"; "what has been our most romantic moment"; "what is your favorite thing about me"; and "what is the best thing about our relationship." Take two sheets of paper each and list your own answers about your partner on one, and what you think your partner will say about you on the other. Compare results -- you will probably be surprised.
How Well Do You Know Me
Create a list of questions based on details from your past and personal tastes such as "where I went to school"; "what was the name of my favorite childhood pet"; "who is my oldest friend"; or "what is my favorite food." Divide a box of expensive chocolates between you before you start. Each time a person gets an answer wrong, he must give one of his chocolates to the other. That will help lighten any upset if one partner doesn't know as many answers as the other would have hoped.
Truth or Forfeit
This twist on an old favorite is great fun, but can be a little bit dangerous, too. If jealousy or trust issues are a serious problem in your relationship, this game may be best avoided. Both partners should take several note cards and write on each one something they'd love their partner to do for them. Place the note cards face down in a pile. If one partner doesn't want to answer a question, that person has to pick up one of the other person's cards and fulfill the forfeit.
Childhood Favorites
Playing favorite childhood games as adults soon leads to a release of inhibitions and laughter which can help bring a couple closer together. Non-sexual contact games, such as Twister, blindfold hide-and-seek and even arm-wrestling or a simple game of tag (to chase and catch the other) can all help bring couples together and develop intimacy.
