108 questions in 9 groups
A quiz question isn't a conversation starter. “What do you love about summer?” is a nice thing to ask. “Which season do I like best?” is a quiz question, because there's one right answer and you already know it.
Every question on this page is written that way, from your side: “my” and “me”. Pick ten, answer them yourself, and see how many your partner gets right. There are easy points to start with, questions about your relationship, picks for girlfriend and boyfriend quizzes, and a hard mode for couples who think they know everything.
Choose a group and tap for a random question. Read it out, let your partner guess, and keep score on your fingers.
Which side of the couch is mine?
The difference between a fun quiz and an annoying one is almost always the questions. A good one has a single answer you'd never argue about, and a partner who's been paying attention has a fair shot at it.
Skip anything that doubles as a bank security question, like your first pet's name or the street you grew up on. Quiz results get shared, and there are plenty of better questions anyway.
Instead of
“What's my favorite food?”
Try
“Which would I pick for a birthday dinner: Italian, Mexican, Japanese, or Indian?”
Favorite food can have five honest answers. Four named options leave exactly one.
Instead of
“Do I like music?”
Try
“Who's my favorite singer or band right now?”
A yes-or-no question with an obvious answer is a free point. Ask for the specific thing.
Instead of
“What did I have for lunch on my ninth birthday?”
Try
“What flavor cake do I want on my birthday?”
Nobody could know the first one. The second is something they've seen you ask for.
Start with a few your partner should get without thinking. A quiz that opens with three gimmes feels fun; one that opens with a trick question feels like an exam.
Favorites make great multiple choice questions. Put the real answer next to two or three things you also like, so it takes more than a lucky guess.
Your partner has eaten with you enough times to know these, which is exactly why missing one is so funny.
Small routines your partner sees every day but may never have noticed. These are where long-term couples pick up easy points.
Stories you've told at least once. Good for checking who was listening, and good for newer couples who haven't shared a lot of daily life yet.
Questions about the two of you. Your partner was there for all of these, so the answer you'd give is the only one that counts.
For a girlfriend making a quiz for her boyfriend. A few are details he'd only know from paying attention, which is the whole point.
For a boyfriend making a quiz for his girlfriend. She probably knows more of these than you expect, so throw in a couple of hard ones.
For couples who've been together a while and think they know everything. Use two or three of these to finish a quiz, not a whole round.
Pick the questions you like, answer them yourself, and send your partner a link. They guess on their phone, the site scores it, and you both see every question they missed next to what you actually picked.
Copy ten from this page or write your own as multiple choice or this-or-that. Start easy, end hard.
Your answers become the answer key. Set how many wrong answers are allowed and what the loser owes.
Your partner plays on their phone, no account needed. Then swap and let them quiz you.
Rather not write your own? Pick one of these, answer it about yourself, and send it over.

On a question with four options, a random guess is right about one time in four. So if your partner gets more than half right, they know you better than chance. Seven or eight out of ten is a good score. A perfect ten is rare if you put a hard mode question or two at the end, which is a good reason to include them.
The number matters less than the misses. A wrong guess tells you what your partner assumes about you, and that's often a better conversation than the questions they got right. Go through the results together instead of just sending the score.
If you're making a quiz for your boyfriend, the girlfriend quiz section above is a good place to start, and our quizzes for girlfriends are ready to answer and send. Making one for your girlfriend? Use the boyfriend quiz section, or pick from the quizzes for boyfriends.
The best way to play is both directions: you take their quiz, they take yours, and you compare who knows who better. The how well do you know your partner quizzes are built for exactly that.
Married, or about to be? The newlywed game questions work the same way, made for couples who share a home and a calendar.
Good quiz questions have one right answer that you know for sure, like 'How many pillows do I sleep with?' or 'What do I dip my fries in?'. Write them as multiple choice with three or four options, start with a few easy ones, and save one or two hard ones for the end.
Seven to twelve is the sweet spot. It's long enough for the score to mean something and short enough to finish in a few minutes. Ten is a good default: three easy ones, five in the middle, and two hard ones.
Pick things about you that he could know if he's been paying attention: your ring size, the nail color you always go back to, where you actually want to eat when you say you don't mind, or which TV couple you think you're most like. Mix them with a few easy favorites so he gets some points early.
Questions about your own habits and favorites work best: your T-shirt size, your go-to karaoke song, the dish you cook to impress someone, or the name of your main group chat. Add a couple from the hard mode section if she thinks she knows everything.
Write your questions as multiple choice or this-or-that, then answer them yourself first. Your answers become the answer key. On Couples Quizzes you can also set how many wrong answers are allowed and what the loser owes, then send your partner the link. They guess, and you both see the score and every question they missed.
On four-option questions a random guess gets about one in four right, so anything over half means your partner knows you better than chance. Seven or eight out of ten is a good score, and a perfect score is rare if you include a hard question or two. The wrong answers are usually more interesting than the number.
Pick your questions, answer them, and send the link. It takes a couple of minutes.
