‘Would You Rather’ Top Tips
Playing ‘Would You Rather’ is simple. But, there are some steps you can take to make the game fun and hassle-free.
1) No dodging allowed
Seriously! We know some of the questions can be tricky, but not allowing skips keeps the game playful and spontaneous. Half the fun is making your partner squirm with impossible choices. Lean into the chaos!
2) Throw in a follow-up question
If you really want to get to know your partner, ask them why. Why would they rather fight off 100 duck-sized horses? Why would they rather only drink coffee for the rest of their life? Why don’t they want to get married abroad? Some of their answers might be surface level, but others might reveal something about them that you didn’t know. Dig deeper and ask why!
3) Don’t overthink it
This isn’t a job interview, so don’t overthink your answer. Go with your gut and embrace the ridiculousness. Whether your choice makes total sense or is completely unhinged, that’s part of the fun. The weirder the answer, the better the conversation with your partner that follows.
The Bottom Line on ‘Would You Rather’ Questions
‘Would You Rather’ can either be a fun, lighthearted game to get to know your partner, or a meaningful and intimate way to spark deeper conversations. Whether you’re playing for laughs or trying to peel back another layer of connection, the beauty of this game is how flexible and revealing it can be.
So, grab a comfy seat, pour a drink, and get ready to ask the big questions, whether straight from or inspired by this list—like whether they’d rather give up pizza forever or never kiss you again (rude, but important intel).
And if you’re ready to take your relationship to the next level and start planning your dream wedding, look no further than Bridebook!
