80 Creative Would You Rather Questions To Ask Your Spouse and Family

We know you have plenty of conversations about the to-do list, the kids, and even hard conversations about your marriage. There’s a time and place for all these, but in the same vein, it’s equally as important to have lighthearted, fun, “this doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things,” conversations.

That’s why we’ve put together a list of 80 would you rather questions. Would you rather go back to elementary school or high school? Would you rather buy a lake house or a beach house? These would you rather questions bring life into your relationship, relieve stress, remove seriousness, and allow you to talk casually and conversationally—kind of like you did when you were just dating!

So, dream a little, think outside of the box, and have follow-up conversation based on these 80 would you rather questions. You could run through them rapid-fire style and see what your spouse says. You could try to guess what your spouse would say first and then see if you were right. Or, you could ask each question with “why” at the end. Would you rather give up your favorite food or your favorite TV show, and why?

Print out the PDFs of questions to keep in a jar in your living room or download them to your phone to reference at your next dinner date. Check out the list of would you rather questions below.
