I have a bday coming up and I want to ask my wife to get me messy. She knows I like wam but doesn't get messy. She's also not a huge fan of getting me messy but she will do it from time to time.
Here is where I need help. I want to make up a fun game where I get messy. Like trivia and for every right answer I get pied. Or I'm blindfolded and have to guess the next substance by feeling it. Ora WWYD game where I have a card on my head and have to do whatever the card says.
We don't have a huge space to get messy in either.
And while most of the posts there are either online games or wagers on outside events (e.g. sports), there's a post about in-person game ideas: https://umd.net/groups/game-repository
I'd guess that a lot of those ideas are a little more grandiose than you're aiming for? But there might be some inspiration for things you could scale down. Either way, good luck!
First thing to do is talk to her and find out what she is comfortable with. There is no point having a great plan setup and for her to be uncomfortable and not want to take part.
You might find that she is willing to more than you think as it's a birthday treat
Is there something she wants or likes to do because if there is you could have some sort of contest and if she wins she gets what she wants. If you win you get messy but you have to be prepared to stay clean
I know for certain she won't get messy. She's made that very clear. Whatever we do it has to be pretty simple. If I make it too complicated she will be less likely to let me do it.
I had some fun with an ex awhile back where she was not into getting messy but didn't mind getting me messy We played a simple higher or lower game of cards. We laid 10 cards out and I had to guess if the next was higher or lower if I was wrong she pied me and I she picked a random forfeit card she had made up of things she wanted me to do for/to her If I got to the end with less than 3 wrong she would pour a carton of custard over me and I had to take her for dinner at a restaurant of her choice. Everyone is a winner
I case you were wondering how it went the meal was good
