“These activities force you to collaborate and communicate constructively with your partner to achieve one common goal of finishing the game. “Gaming as a couple can bring out different elements and characteristics of yours that may not be apparent in day-to-day life,” explains certified sex educator and Bumble’s sex and relationships expert, Shan Boodram. Getting a little competitive together can strengthen your relationship, and that goes for everything from those nostalgic board games gathering dust in the hall closet to a rousing hand of cards to video games or activities specifically designed to get you thinking and talking.
If your usual date nights are starting to feel a little stale and you just can't bear to watch one more movie, try playing a game together instead.
