AngelofMercy's advice column

I am a 29/f that loves to listen and try to help out. I have always been the one people go to for advice.

I will tell you how I feel about it. If you don't like my answer, I'm sorry. However, usually what I say is true, people just can't handle the truth.

advice

my subject lacked something that i couldn't fit in.. but like i have a guyfriend and we're pretty tight you know and we like playing games. so we usually talk via email so our we get responses every few hours (this might affect your answers).

so like we used to play word association games like
me: apple
him: orange
me: sun

etc. like the last word typed => what word comes to mind afterwards?

and then we got bored with that, so now we're playing think of a word using the last letter of the last word like
me: ipod
him: demon
me: name

and we're going to continue playing that for a while in our email threads.

but that's only two games! can someone please suggest some other fun games i could play with him via internet? we've also tried the "i say a sentence, then you say another sentence in response to it" etc. game but that only works well with like 20 people, not two cause you inadvertently include the sentences before. we also can't exactly play truth or dare / ask SUPER DUPER personal questions cause we recently got over that awkward stage in our friendship when i liked him & he didn't like me and visa versaa (timing makes all the difference..)

in addition, would you rather / truth or dare gets hard because we can't think of good questions to ask each other (anymore, at least)

in summary, i need some new ideas on what games to play with my close guyfriend without being awkward! thanks in advance

You could try finish this sentence and it could be played out several ways. For example:

you: I have to...
him: go skydiving in...
you: Japan to find...
him: those scissors I dropped...
you: down the toilet yesterday.

You can keep it going until it has played out but limiting it to only 4 words maximum for each turn.

Alternative way:

you: ...because I lost the monkey.
him: I had to call the zoo...

You are doing the ending of the sentence and he is starting it, in reverse order. Or, the same applies in forward.

You could also do categories like this:

Topic~ fruit

A: apple
B: banana
C: canteloupe

Each taking a turn down the alphabet.

Another thing could be done would be riddles.

Each take a turn asking a question~riddle~, then the other answers. When you have completed the round, you switch the asker and the answerer.
