Couple Quiz: How Well Do You Know Your Partner?

You probably know your partner's coffee order by heart. But do you know their biggest childhood fear, or the song that always puts them in a good mood? This couple quiz is a fun way to find out how well you really know each other, and to learn a few new things along the way.

It works for new couples and for people who have been together for years. All you need is something to write on and about half an hour.

How to Play the Couple Quiz

1. Decide who goes first. That person is the one being quizzed in the first round.
2. Read a question out loud. The other partner writes down the answer they think is right.
3. The partner being quizzed then says the real answer.
4. Give 1 point for every correct answer, and half a point if it's close.
5. Swap roles after each section, or play the whole quiz once for each of you.

Keep it light: a wrong answer isn't a test failed, it's a story you haven't heard yet. Ask "why?" whenever an answer surprises you.
