- For couples, mix one planning pair with one silly pair so the game does not turn into a to-do list.
- Over text, send one pair a day during the week before Valentine's Day.
- At work, post pairs in a team channel and let coworkers vote with a heart or a candy emoji.
- For a spicier round between adult partners, use the spicy page instead of this one.
