Who's Most Likely To Questions: 50 Ideas for Couples
Updated:
In "Who's most likely to" you all point at one person in the room at the same time, and the arguing starts as soon as two fingers point at different people. The who's most likely to questions below work for two, for four or in a big group. There are harmless ones to start with, questions for couples and a few that lead into thinking.
How the game works
One person reads out a question, for example "Who's most likely to forget the keys?". On three, everyone points at once at the person the question fits best. Then each person explains why they pointed the way they did. The explanations are the real fun.
For two, the game needs a small tweak, because there are only two possible answers: you or me. It's still entertaining, because sometimes you both point at the same person and both feel caught. You can also write first and then compare, like a little quiz.
A few rules help:
- Point at the same time, or the first answer influences the second.
- Whoever points at themselves gets an extra point for honesty.
- No questions aimed at a real problem you're fighting about. The game shouldn't turn into an accusation.
- Laughing is allowed, laughing at someone isn't.

Who's most likely to questions for friends
In a round with several people it gets louder, and the questions can be a bit cheekier.
- Who's most likely to wear a costume when it isn't Halloween?
- Who's most likely to refuse to give up the mic at karaoke?
- Who's most likely to get lost in a tent at a festival?

Who's most likely to questions to make you think
When the mood is calmer, the questions can get more serious. The answers often tell you more about yourselves than you thought.
- Who's most likely to start a new job just out of curiosity?
- Who's most likely to want to talk through a fight calmly afterwards?
- Who's most likely to ask for help when it's hard?
- Who's most likely to sacrifice something for the group?
- Who's most likely to make a decision they'll regret later but stand by?
- Who's most likely to forgive someone who never apologized?
- Who's most likely to get back in touch with an old friend?
- Who's most likely to stay calm at bad news?
- Who's most likely to cry in secret rather than show it?
- Who's most likely to talk about money before it becomes a problem?
If something comes up with one of these questions that is more than a move in the game, take the time to talk about it. If conflicts keep coming back, couples counseling can help.
Everyday questions for two
These questions suit you if you live together or see each other often. They're harmless and still hit home.
- Who's most likely to get hungry in the middle of the night and raid the fridge?
- Who's most likely to leave the shopping list at home?
- Who's most likely to secretly turn the heating up?
- Who's most likely to keep watching a show even though you'd agreed on one episode?
- Who's most likely to ignore the laundry pile until it topples?
- Who's most likely to stop on a walk to pet an animal?
- Who's most likely to say "I'm almost ready" and take half an hour?
After each question it's worth a short look at the other side: does the picture the other has of you hold up? Mostly it's largely right and surprisingly wrong on one point. That very point is the interesting one.
Variations that change the evening
With reasons. Each person has to explain in one sentence why they pointed as they did. That turns the game into a conversation.
With points. Whoever gets picked by the others gets a point. Whoever has the fewest at the end wins. So the game rewards the inconspicuous, and most people quickly notice they don't want to win at all.
Blind guessing. One person writes down who they think the answer is, and the other answers honestly. If they match, there's a point. That's the couples variant for anyone who wants to know how well they know each other.
Your own questions. Each writes three questions that only apply to you. They're usually better than any list, because they live on your stories.
Goes well with: other games for two
If you want more, play would you rather or truth or dare afterwards. You'll find more ideas for evenings as a pair under games for couples and, if you like a quiz, in the couples quiz.
