22 'Never Have I Ever' ideas to turn up the heat on your second date

Congratulations! It’s officially your second date together. You have finally made it through the ‘what do you do’ and ‘why do you do’ conversations leaving just enough mystery for date number two. To add a spicy touch to your day out (or night in), a quick and effective game of Never Have I Ever will be the best way to know who your date really is. Whether you're after the funny Never Have I Ever ideas or prefer diving into juicy tell-all truths, you’ll find the perfect mix below for a round that’s both fun and revealing. All that’s left to do is play!

If you aren’t very familiar with the game or need a refresher, we got your back. Here’s how Never Have I Ever works: Your date and you take turns saying something you’ve never done, starting with “Never have I ever…” (like, “Never have I ever gone camping”) and if the other person has done it, they take a big sip of their drink. Test the waters by keeping it light and fun, and gradually throw in some spice to see where it takes the night. 

Never Have I Ever is actually a very situational game, which can make it tough to put together a tidy curation of the very best questions to ask. So don’t drop it hot in the first few rounds, keep it casual but also leave them curious. First off, we have a list of fun and easy-going questions to throw in some laughs and also know if they pass the vibe check: 

Never have I ever gone to a party I wasn’t invited to

Never have I ever cut my own hair

Never have I ever Googled myself

Never have I ever had an online-only relationship

Never have I ever catfished someone

Never have I ever created a fake Instagram account

Never have I ever lied on a first date

You can then cross the bridge over to a juicier part of the game—going into sexual experiences, past relationships, dating habits, and more. Blend this seamlessly in with the other questions only if you think your date is comfortable enough to get into some dirty talking. If you sense otherwise, stick to the first tone of ideas and play along those lines to get more candid with each other.
