114 Couples Quiz Questions To Test How Well You Know Each Other
10 min read
Has conversation with your partner hit a lull, or are you looking for ways to understand them on a deeper level? You're in luck, because 114 couples quiz prompts are waiting below to get you talking again! Feel free to jump straight to the 114 questions here, but…
I'd suggest reading through this whole guide first. Here's why: a couples quiz can accomplish several things at once.
- It can reveal how sexually compatible you two are
- It's a solid way to learn more about your partner, spanning everything from their family background to sexual fantasies
- It can deepen intimacy with your partner
- It might confirm that you're already aligned on shared values, or…
- It could surface points of friction gently, so you're not blindsided by them down the road

Setting up a couples quiz doesn't take much effort. You could literally just alternate reading questions aloud from this list! But there are other approaches too…
Both answer the same question – Try guessing what your partner will say before revealing your own honest answer, if that sounds like fun.
Print out the questions? – If you're feeling ambitious, you could turn this into a written quiz that tests how well each of you actually knows the other, though that's entirely optional extra effort.
The most important thing – For a couples quiz like this to actually benefit your relationship, both of you need to answer honestly. Don't pick a question you're eager to hear the answer to and then dodge it when it's aimed back at you.
Curious about our take on the "Never Have I Ever" game too? We've got you covered there as well.
Passing on questions? – That said, if you're both on board, feel free to grant each other a pass on a question or two you're not ready to tackle yet. This can be especially useful early in a relationship or when the topic gets heavy. Stick to lighter material if that's what keeps things enjoyable for both of you.
These are conversation starters – Remember, the goal of these questions is simply to spark conversation, not to complete a checklist. Feel free to follow an interesting tangent and set aside the rest of the questions for another time. You don't have to get through the whole list in one sitting, or ever, really. Spreading it out keeps things fresh and fun.
Vary the questions – On that note, mixing up your questions tends to keep engagement higher, so keep that in mind while browsing the question list below! Alternate between prompts focused solely on your partner and ones about the relationship as a whole. You can even turn this into a group game for extra fun.
Keep it fun 🙂 – Lastly, and this is worth repeating, try not to read too deeply into every single answer during this quiz. What your partner says doesn't automatically reflect something negative about either of you or the relationship itself.
Some people just don't do great under pressure or when put on the spot. A question might catch them off guard, or they might blurt out something imprecise while rushing to answer. Maybe they've genuinely never thought that deeply about a certain topic before, let alone said it out loud.
Would you rather? – Framing things as either/or questions or would you rather prompts, or simply giving each other time to think, can help sidestep some of these issues (107 dirty would you rather questions). Also, be mindful of what you ask. Some of these prompts get pretty personal, and not everyone's ready to hear that much detail about their partner's past. Our guide to sexual communication offers advice for tackling difficult conversations.
Whatever the trigger, some discomfort or jealousy might bubble up while doing a couples quiz like this, so try to laugh it off when that happens. You're teammates here, not opponents, and this quiz isn't meant to create distance between you.
And now, here's the full list of couples quiz questions!
