Show your smartphone’s search history
These days, it’s so convenient because you can look up anything on your smartphone.
That said, isn’t it a bit embarrassing to show someone your search history? It’s like they might peek into your mind—seeing you mostly look up food, for example.
So let’s turn that into a penalty game.
It may be embarrassing, but on the flip side, it could be fun to catch a glimpse of someone’s unexpected side.
In any case, the act of suddenly showing your phone is quite a penalty in itself, so if they strongly refuse, drop it.
First love story
When was your first love? Many people only remember it in fragments, or feel too young and childish back then to recall it without blushing—the memories of a first love are often like that.
How about making it a dare to talk about your first love? From sweet, innocent stories from kindergarten or elementary school to the times you messed up and got completely rejected—embarrassing as they are, let’s tell them candidly! Talking about it might even bring back new memories… (lol).
Number of times I’ve been confessed to
A classic confessional game couples can enjoy with a little flutter of excitement: the “How many confessions have you gotten?” talk.
Because it touches on each other’s past, this topic not only gets lively but also reveals unexpected sides, mixes in a bit of jealousy and embarrassment, and acts as a spice that brings you closer.
You can start light by asking by time period, like “How about in middle school?” or “After you started working?” It’s easy for the conversation to branch out—being surprised with “You were that popular?” or teasing with “Only once… who was it?” works well.
You can answer seriously or turn it into a joke.
It’s a romance talk topic we recommend trying during downtime on a date or while relaxing at home.
Show a photo of your student ID or driver’s license
Why is it that driver’s licenses and student IDs never come out looking good? And lots of people have terrible passport photos too.
I bet many people absolutely don’t want to show them to anyone! Making someone show theirs would be the perfect punishment game, wouldn’t it? Plus, for people hiding their age, that’ll give it away.
And the worse the photo, the funnier it is as a punishment—so don’t worry about it and keep throwing them into the mix.
Reading aloud an embarrassing XX
Everyone has probably written various kinds of texts over the course of their life—elementary school essays, old diary entries, and so on.
This activity is about digging up those old writings that everyone likely has tucked away and having them read aloud with heart.
You’ll get to truly feel the embarrassment, including the clumsy parts, as you see what your past self was thinking and how you used to write.
Since you can’t predict the content, it’s best to choose pieces from as far back in time as possible.
Exposing embarrassing stories from the past
If you’re alive and human, you’ve probably had your share of embarrassing experiences.
Even now, many of us break into a cold sweat just thinking about them—but if you consider that those moments helped shape who you are today, aren’t they kind of endearing? How about sharing these embarrassing stories as a punishment game? Whether you go for a hard-hitting tale to get laughs or keep it mild to protect your pride is up to you.
If you keep losing, you’ll have to unload a significant amount of your dark past.
That’s pretty amusing too, isn’t it?

Moments when your partner makes your heart skip a beat
When you’re with your partner, don’t you sometimes feel that little flutter in your heart? It might be something tiny, a small gesture or expression, or something that comes from genuine care for each other.
There are so many reasons to feel that flutter.
So why not talk with each other about the moments that make your heart skip a beat? You might find out that something you do without thinking actually makes your partner’s heart flutter.
And your partner’s unexpected confession might make you think, “So that’s what you’ve been noticing.” It could also help you spend time together with even deeper affection.
