Crazy Things to Do with Your Boyfriend at Home

Okay, real talk — sometimes the weather sucks, your bank account laughs at you, or you’re both just too cozy in sweatpants to leave the house. But guess what? Staying in can be WAY hotter, funnier, and more memorable than any fancy date night. I’ve been with my guy for six years, and some of our absolute favorite memories happened on the living room floor at 2 a.m. with zero plans. So grab your person (and maybe a snack) because these crazy things to do with your boyfriend at home are about to level-up your relationship game — no pants required 😉

1. Turn Your Living Room into a Full-Blown Nightclub (Yes, Really)

Who says you need bottle service to rage? Crank the playlist, kill the lights, and go stupid.

• Push the coffee table aside and lay down blankets (instant dance floor).
• Use your phone flashlights + colored scarves over lamps for mood lighting. Looks legit, I swear.
• Make ridiculous cocktails with whatever’s in the fridge. My man once made a “Blue Waffle Surprise” that tasted like regret and mouthwash… we still laugh about it.
• Learn a TikTok dance together. You’ll look like dying flamingos at first, then suddenly you’re Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Pro tip: End with slow dancing to something cheesy like Ed Sheeran. Cue the forehead kisses. You’re welcome.

2. Naked Cooking Challenge (Clothes Optional, Chaos Mandatory)

You’ve seen those cute couples cooking together on Instagram. We’re doing the unhinged version.

Pick a complicated recipe (soufflé, homemade pasta, sushi — anything that can go horribly wrong). Rules:

• You’re both only allowed to wear aprons. Nothing else. Safety first… kinda.
• Every time something spills, burns, or explodes, you lose a piece of the apron (even if it’s already barely there).
• Set a timer for 45 minutes. If the food is edible at the “winner” gets a massage. If it’s trash… you both eat cereal naked at the table and die laughing.

Last time we tried this we almost set off the smoke alarm making flambé. 10/10 would risk third-degree burns again.

3. Build the World’s Most Extra Blanket Fort

I’m not talking a couple chairs and a sheet. I mean architectural masterpiece.

What you need:

• Every blanket, pillow, and couch cushion in the house
• Christmas lights (or fairy lights)
• Clothespins + chip clips to hold that baby together
• Snacks, laptop, and zero adult responsibilities

Once it’s built, crawl inside and:

• Watch childhood movies you’re both embarrassed to love (mine’s The Lizzie McGuire Movie, fight me)
• Play “would you rather” until it gets weirdly sexual
• Fall asleep tangled up like otters

My boyfriend proposed we add a second story (“the penthouse”) and I’ve never felt more accomplished in my life.

4. DIY Couples Spa Night… But Make It Chaotic

Face masks? Cute. Face masks while drunk and trying to give each other “professional” massages? Legendary.

• Buy the $4 clay masks from Target that harden like concrete.
• Light candles everywhere (fire hazard chic).
• Take turns giving the world’s worst massages — extra points for dramatic moans and over-the-top compliments like “your shoulder blades are giving Renaissance sculpture.”
• End with a bubble bath together. Add food coloring and bath bombs for that Instagram blue water (even if nobody will ever see it).

Warning: You will both look like Shrek for 20 minutes. Embrace it.

5. “Yes Day” But Only Inside the House

Remember that movie with Jennifer Garner? We stole the concept but kept it lazy.

Rules for 3 hours straight:

• Whatever the other person suggests, you have to say YES (as long as it’s legal and doesn’t leave the house).
• Past hits in our house: eating ice cream for dinner, drawing Sharpie tattoos on each other, having a pillow fight in underwear, making a music video to “Barbie Girl.”

One time he said yes to letting me cut his hair. Reader… it looked like a Lego man. We buzzed it all off and he still looked hot. Relationship goals?

6. The Stranger Photo Shoot

This one is unhinged and I love it.

• Put on the most random outfits you own (think his work shirt with your thigh-highs, or your prom dress with his basketball shorts).
• Do a full photoshoot around the house using only your phone and self-timer.
• Strike the most dramatic, Vogue-level poses you can think of.
• Edit them with ridiculous filters and send them to each other like you’re famous.

We once did a “sad rich couple fighting over inheritance” theme in our kitchen. The photos still make me scream-laugh.

7. Recreate Your First Date… Badly

Remember how awkward and perfect your first date was? Ruin it on purpose.

• Wear the same outfits (or the cringe is real.
• Re-enact every awkward silence, dumb joke, and accidental touch.
• Order the exact same food (even if you hate it now).
• End with the world’s most over-the-top first kiss redo.

It’s hilarious how much you’ve both changed… and how you still get butterflies.

8. Indoor Camping Gone Wild

Pitch a tent in the living room (or make one out of sheets if you’re broke like us).

• Roast marshmallows over the gas stove (safety third!).
• Tell ghost stories with flashlights under your chins.
• Play the “I’ve never” drinking game until someone admits something insane.
• Zip your sleeping bags together because… reasons 😉

Waking up on the floor with a sore back has never felt so romantic.

9. Tattoo Each Other (With Washable Markers)

Temporary? Yes. Traumatizing? Also yes.

• Buy those thick wash-off markers.
• Take turns drawing the dumbest “tattoos” you can think of on each other’s arms, backs, wherever.
• Mine once drew a flaming skull that looked like a potato. His drew “YOLO” in Comic Sans on my butt.

Take pictures before you shower — future blackmail material secured.

10. The “No Talking” Challenge

This one sounds boring but trust me.

For two full hours you can only communicate through:

• Charades
• Writing on sticky notes
• Dirty looks
• Physical touch (this is where it gets spicy)

You’ll either want to strangle each other or jump each other by the end. Sometimes both. Highly recommend.

11. Make a Time Capsule… For Next Week

Write letters to your future selves, add Polaroids from tonight, toss in receipts, candy wrappers, whatever.

Bury it in a shoebox under the bed and set a calendar reminder to open it in exactly one year.

We did this drunk at 3 a.m. and wrote the most unhinged promises (“We will own a goat by 2026”). Still waiting on that goat, babe.

12. Karaoke Battle to the Death

You know you both secretly want to.

• Queue up YouTube karaoke versions of the cheesiest songs.
• Full commitment: hairbrush mics, dramatic spins, crying during ballads.
• Loser has to do dishes naked. Winner picks the next sex position. Everyone wins, really.

My boyfriend’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” turn-and-drop move lives rent-free in my head.

13. Host Your Own “Chopped” But Everyone’s Drunk & Shirtless

Forget Ted Allen. You two are the judges, contestants, and cleanup crew.

Rules we made up at 11 p.m. last month:

• Raid the pantry blindfolded and grab five random ingredients each.
• You have 30 minutes to make an appetizer, entrée, and dessert.
• Mandatory ingredients both of us got: pickles, Frosted Flakes, and hot sauce. Send prayers.
• Every time the timer beeps you have to take a shot or lose clothing. We lost clothing.
• Plating has to be “MasterChef level” which means we used the good plates and a candle.

We ended up with pickle cereal-crusted chicken nuggets dipped in hot sauce frosting. It was horrifying. We made out anyway.

14. Turn Bath Time Into the Met Gala

Bubble bath? Basic. We’re talking full-on glamorous chaos.

Steps:

• Fill the tub with way too many bubbles, food coloring, and those little LED floating lights.
• Put on your most ridiculous formal wear (I wore my bridesmaid dress from 2018, he wore a full tuxedo T-shirt).
• Play classical music and pretend you’re rich Europeans who bathe in champagne (we used $6 prosecco).
• Feed each other strawberries and judge each other’s “red carpet looks” while sitting in neon pink water.

We took mirror selfies that look like fashion editorials. 10/10 will flood the bathroom again.

15. The “Yes Day” Extreme Home Edition (We’re Talking Dangerous Levels of Yes)

One full day. Whatever the other person says = instant yes. No questions. No veto.

Real things that happened last time we did this:

• He woke me up at 7 a.m. with “Let’s rearrange the entire living room furniture.” We did. It looked terrible. We left it like that for a week.
• I said “I want to do your makeup like a SoundCloud rapper.” He now has photos with teal eyebrows forever.
• He said “Let’s cook breakfast naked.” Pancake batter splatter burns are real, folks.
• I said “Carry me around the house like a princess all day.” My thighs have never been stronger.

We ended the day crying laughing and covered in glitter. Never again… until next month.

16. Create a Couples Bucket List… Then Do Every Item Tonight

Grab a poster board, markers, and zero chill.

Write down 30 ridiculous things you want to do together someday. Then immediately do every single one that can be done inside the house. Examples from ours:

• Have a food fight ✓ (whipped cream + kitchen = divorce papers pending)
• Slow dance in the rain ✓ (we used the shower)
• Get matching tattoos ✓ (washable markers again, calm down)
• Make out in every room ✓ (we have 7 rooms… we got tired)
• Write and perform a rap about our relationship ✓ (it’s on my private story if you’re brave)

We finished 27 out of 30 before passing out on the kitchen floor. Still counts.

17. Build an Indoor Obstacle Course That Would Get You Canceled on TikTok

Use every piece of furniture you own. I’m talking American Ninja Warrior but make it poor.

Our course included:

• Crawling under the dining table
• Jumping over couch cushions
• Army-crawling through the hallway with a pillow on your back
• Balancing a spoon with an egg across the living room
• Final challenge: shotgun a LaCroix while doing a handstand against the wall

Winner gets to pick the next three Netflix shows with no complaints. Loser does laundry for a month. The neighbors definitely heard screaming.

18. The “Strangers in a Bar” Roleplay (Top Tier Foreplay)

Dress up like you’re going out (heels, cologne, the whole thing). Then “meet” at your own kitchen counter like you’ve never seen each other before.

Script we used:

• He’s a mysterious musician traveling through town.
• I’m a bored housewife who “never does this.”
• Flirt horribly. Use the cheesiest pickup lines in existence.
• “Accidentally” spill a drink and offer to clean it up… with your mouth.

We didn’t make it past the “what’s your sign?” phase before clothes started flying. Highly effective.

18. Recreate Iconic Movie Scenes But Badly

Pick your favorite movies and act them out with zero budget and maximum commitment.

Our greatest hits:

• The notebook rain kiss (in the shower with the cold water on full blast)
• Titanic “I’m flying” scene (on the kitchen counter, almost broke my tailbone)
• Dirty Dancing lift (he dropped me, we both cried laughing for 20 minutes)
• Twilight meadow scene (rolled around in the backyard at 2 a.m. until mosquitoes attacked)

Film everything. You’ll watch it every anniversary.

19. Sensory Deprivation Game (Trust Falls But Make It Spicy)

One person wears a blindfold. The other person has 20 minutes to make them feel… things. Using only:

• Ice cubes
• Feathers
• Your mouth
• Whipped cream
• That one massage oil you forgot about

No talking allowed from the blindfolded person. Only moaning or giggling counts as communication. Switch roles. Prepare to lose ability to form sentences.

20. Make a “Couple’s Vision Board” While High on Sugar

Get a poster, old magazines, glue sticks, and an entire bag of sour gummy worms.

Cut out everything you want your future to look like:

• Dream house
• Vacation spots
• Pets you’ll adopt
• Ridiculous things like “own a llama” or “start a cult”

Then hang it somewhere you’ll see every day. Ours is above the toilet. Romantic.

21. The “No Hands” Challenge

Try to do normal couple things without using your hands. At all.

Examples:

• Feed each other dinner
• Open a bottle of wine (teeth only, good luck)
• Change the TV channel
• Put clothes on each other for bed

Everything immediately becomes foreplay. You’re welcome.

22. Host a Fake Cooking Show

Full production. Aprons, terrible accents, pretend audience.

We called ours “Chaos in the Kitchen with Your Mom and Stepdad” because we’re mature.

Segments included:

• “Pantry roulette” where we cook with whatever’s about to expire
• “Will it taco?” (everything goes in a tortilla
• Dramatic judging where we rate each other’s dishes out of 10 while fake crying

We now have 47 episodes saved on an external hard drive. Gordon Ramsay is shaking.

23. Indoor Scavenger Hunt… With Spicy Prizes

Write 20 clues that lead all over the house. Each clue ends with either:

• A piece of clothing removed
• A kiss in a weird location
• A dare (lick whipped cream off my collarbone, etc.)

Final prize? Winner gets to tie the loser to the bed with Christmas lights. Don’t act like you’re not into it.

24. “First Date redo” But You’re Both Trying to Ruin It

Dress up nice. Meet at the front door. Ring the doorbell.

Then spend the entire “date” trying to make the other person break character by being as awkward as possible:

• Talk only in movie quotes
• Order pizza but insist on paying with Monopoly money
• Cry during dinner about your “ex” (playfully)
• Keep “going to the bathroom” and come back in increasingly ridiculous outfits

The person who laughs first loses and has to give a two-minute apology speech… naked.

25. The “Silent Disco” But You Share One Pair of Headphones

One AirPod each. Same playlist. Go.

You’ll spend three hours doing the most unhinged white-people dancing in your underwear while trying not to yank the cord. Bonus points if you attempt to dip each other and fail spectacularly.

26. Make Your Own Escape Room

This one takes planning but holy crap is it worth it.

Hide clues inside cereal boxes, under couch cushions, taped to the ceiling fan. Make puzzles that only you two would understand (like “where did we first hook up?” — answer: laundry room).

Final prize: a bubble bath already drawn with champagne chilling. Or just straight-up sex on the kitchen floor. Depends how impatient you get.

Final Thoughts (Because I Could Keep Going Forever)

Look, going out is great and all, but some of the craziest, hottest, funniest moments happen when you’re both barefoot in yesterday’s hoodie eating cereal off each other’s stomachs at 1 a.m. (Don’t judge us.)

These crazy things to do with your boyfriend at home aren’t just about killing time — they’re about making memories so ridiculous you’ll still be laughing about them when you’re old and gray. So turn off Netflix, put your phones on Do Not Disturb, and go be absolutely unhinged together.

Which one are you trying tonight? DM me the chaos — I need new material 😉

Now if you’ll excuse me, my man just yelled “BLANKET FORT UPGRADE TIME” from the living room. Duty calls. 🏰❤️
