Conversation starters for couples are a must-try! Sure, it’s easy to talk about the weather or our current Netflix binge (mines The Office if you were wondering). But THE best conversations are the most thought-provoking and rich. Nothing beats diving in deep to a meaty discussion filled with intrigue, interest, and really having to wrack your brain to think.
It’s easy to fall into repeated conversation styles with your partner. We moan about work and our boss or the annoying person driving too close behind us on the commute. We talk groceries and what to have for dinner and um and ah about whether to order Uber Eats (the answer is always yes).
Good conversation falls by the wayside, which is why conversation starters are one of my favorite things to bring out at dinner parties or on a date night with my partner. They pretty much guarantee that you’ll learn something new about each other. That’s the magic of conversation starters for couples.
I’ve listed below 25 pretty cool-as-cucumber conversation starters for couples. There’s also a printable PDF below so you can print them and cut them out ready for that date night or dinner partaaaay with friends. Here’s to meaningful conversation and deep conversation!
