Hey all, I’m (32M) planning a trip with my wife (30F) next week and I was thinking of bringing something spicy along as a gift.
I’ve been looking into adult games for couples, but I’m a bit on the fence. I’ve read reviews of a specific one and lots of folks seem to enjoy them a lot. However, the more negative reviews focus on some of the questions and assignments and I’m not sure if it’s for us.
For instance, I see there are some knowledge questions that will just test what you know about certain topics. Others have said you can go from 0-100 really quick and that sexual assignments are timed with an hourglass which may make it kinda rushed.
What I’m hoping to accomplish is for us to reconnect on a physical level. Our sex life is okay, but it’s nothing spectacular. I’m interested to see if maybe we can reach a new level through something like this.
As an alternative, I’ve also seen a game where you can do the assignment on the card or drink if you don’t want to do that, that kinda seems more our speed. Yet I am kinda on the fence because I expect the quality of the cards to be pretty low, in the sense that they’ll go for cheap thrills or things that are more awkward than sexy.
Most cheap, run of the mill, sex games aren’t really going to push any boundaries. It’s going to be a slightly different flavor of what you already know and it probably won’t push you outside of your comfort zones.
It might not be what you want to hear but, especially in longer relationships, healthy physical intimacy stems from emotional intimacy. If you want to have better and more open sex then you need to learn how to overcome your nature and have these discussions without the gimmicks. If you’ve got a conservative sex life then playing games may give you a little insight about what direction you may want to explore but they certainly aren’t going to break down any walls and you’ll still need to learn to put in the work and communicate in order to reap any actual benefits.
