Wowzer! 10 Sex Games To Build Trust And Intimacy With Your Partner - Page 3

3. “Yes, No, Maybe” List

This game is a great way to establish open communication around physical intimacy and desires. According to The Romantic, each partner creates a list of sexual activities, fantasies, or preferences and categorizes them into three sections: Yes, No, and Maybe. Afterward, you can discuss your choices and explore areas of mutual interest. The giver spontaneously decides to do something special for the receiver, but first, they always ask for permission. For example, the giver might ask, “May I kiss your hand?” or “May I massage your shoulders?” If the receiver agrees, the giver can continue. However, if the receiver objects, the giver must stop immediately. If the response is a “maybe,” the giver can proceed with caution, checking in to make sure both are still comfortable as things progress.

The goal is not to jump straight into sex, but to share moments of connection—whether it’s through a tender touch, a kiss, or even reading a poem. While the game itself focuses on building intimacy and affection, it can naturally lead to sex once the game is over. Think of it as a mix of loving gestures and thoughtful foreplay, creating an opportunity to bond and enjoy each other’s company in a meaningful way.
