Yes or no questions for couples are a great conversation starter for all occasions. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, they’re accessible and take very little time to go through.

There’s only one golden rule that you have to remember, and that is “no cheating”! The game is called “yes or no” for a reason: no matter the questions, you should only use those 2 words to answer.

Stick to the theme and avoid answering with “oh, it depends”, “I don’t know” or the like.

A lot of the time, the first answer that pops into your head is what you actually want to say in that scenario; it’s the truth. If you stop to think about your answer, you’re trying to justify it or to contradict yourself.

What’s more, what better time to be honest than when you’re having a conversation with your significant other?

You can also choose to throw each other a few curveballs and see how the other one responds (they could be funny or deep couple questions).

If you’re curious why the answer is “yes” or “no”, just note down that question and talk about it more later. It’s always a good idea to spend quality time together and have meaningful discussions with your loved one.

So without further ado, let’s get into the toplist!
