Every Couple Should Try These 25 Things

21.

Have a drunken living room Youtube karaoke night.

22.

My girlfriend and I have a “bet” dollar. We will pick anything where two outcomes are possible and we each pick a winner and the prize is you get to have the Bet dollar flipped to your side on the fridge. I know it sounds pointless, but it is actually quite fun. We have bet on everything from who is going to win a baseball game, to whether or not a lady at the restaurant was going to order meat or fish.

23.

Chase the sky! Perhaps only do-able if you have a car, but the sky was turning a beautiful shade of pink and we got in the car and followed where the color was brightest. When we found a spot we were satisfied with, we pulled over, got out of the car, and just watched the sun set. One of my favorite memories ever.

24.

Dress up for no apparent reason, and enjoy a day out.

25.

Once a month, my wife and I both have to come up with one new thing for the two of us to try. It can be anything – as long as it is something that we never have done together before. Anything from watching a new tv show, to taking a walk at a different park, to trying a restaurant, seeing a film, listen to new music, planted something in the garden, play new games, walk into a store we never have been to, etc. It doesn’t take a lot of effort but she and I really enjoy it.
