How to Play “This or That”
Pit 2 items against each other, then ask the players to choose one. “This or that” is similar to “Would You Rather,” where players take turns asking each other questions and letting the other person answer them aloud. The goal is to answer as quickly as possible and avoid overthinking. You only need 2 people to play, but it’s more fun if you have a large group of 4 or more players. It’s a great way to learn more about others’ interests and preferences, plus spark a lively conversation. “Before starting the game, discuss what topics are off-limits,” says dating coach and matchmaker Laura Bilotta. This can include things like sex and intimacy, past relationships, or finances. Be mindful of your questions and set rules that allow each person to skip a turn. If you think your question might make someone feel uncomfortable, it’s best to save it for another occasion, such as a one-on-one conversation with the other person.
