Stumped for something to do with your best friend?
Playing best friend tag is a fun way to show your BFF what you know — and what you don’t know yet.
It could spark an exchange of personal stories and challenge you both to share more about what makes each of you the way you are.
After all, best friends are those who stick by you even (or maybe especially) when they learn how different you are from what they expected.
A best friend should bea haven for you— someone you can trust, even if you don’t know everything about each other.
Asking questions is part of learning, anyway.
When you make those questions into a game, though, it feels less like prying or fishing for gift ideas.
So, what will you learn aboutyour best friendthat you don’t know now?
How to Play the Best Friend Tag Game
To play the game, you’ll need plenty of best friend questions, which you’ll see below.
You can toss a coin or play rock-paper-scissors to determine who gets to ask the first question.
You can either take turns asking questions, or you can decide to “tag” your bestfriendwhen he or she answers incorrectly, giving you the opportunity to score points untilyouanswer incorrectly.
If you answer a question correctly, you earn a point. If you answer incorrectly, you lose a point.
Keep going until one of you reaches the goal, whether that’s 25 net points or more.
If you both use all the 50 questions in this article, you can score a possible 50 points if you answer all of them correctly.
You can also use a notebook to keep track of the things you learn about your best friend while playing this game (as well as your scores) — and to write down newquestion ideas.
As you play the best friend tag, take advantage of the opportunity to correct any misunderstandings and to fill in the knowledge gaps.
At the risk of sounding like a worried parent, please resist the temptation to turn this into a drinking game. With 50 questions, that would getdangerous very quickly.
This game is about good, clean, sober fun with your BFF.
Besides, you’ll want to remember what you learn about each other.
Instead of taking a shot, you could tell your bestie something they don’t know about you every time you answer a question incorrectly.
It doesn’t have to be top secret; trivial details are fine.
Then, when one of you wins, you can both celebrate by enjoying a treat together.
