- Would you rather get a good-morning or a goodnight text?
- Would you rather only text or talk on the phone?
- Would you rather go on three mini staycations or a week-long destination vacation?
- Would you rather meet your favorite actor or artist?
- Would you rather go on a date with your most recent ex or the person you lost your virginity to?
- Would your rather date a relative’s ex or a friend’s ex?
- Would you rather give up sex or your favorite food?
- Would you rather be handcuffed or blindfolded?
- Would you rather have sex in a car or an airplane?
- Would you rather accidentally send a nude photo to your parent or post it to your Instagram Story?
