Playing games as a couple can boost active engagement, intimacy, and spontaneity, says Shelley Sommerfeldt, Psy.D., a clinical psychologist and relationship coach. “Without the ability to separate and reunite on a regular basis, which can reignite the spark, couples may find themselves falling into a rut,” she explains. While some couples may simply enjoy the extra quality time, others may be experiencing a lull in intimacy, says Kate Balestrieri, Psy.D., a sex and couples therapist and the founder of Modern Intimacy. Whatever you choose, these picks are sure to turn a regular evening into a fun, creative date night that the two of you will never forget. There are so many different games to choose from-flirty board games, conversation-starting card games, and even the best sex games for couples.
If you’re looking for a way to reconnect with your partner or reignite that romantic spark in your intimate relationship, trying out some games for couples couldn’t hurt.
