    The Love Map

    20 Questions Game
    From: The Seven Principles that Make Marriage Work by John Gottman.

    Play this game together in the spirit of laughter and gentle fun. The more you play the
    more you’ll learn about the love maps concept and how to apply it your own relationship.

    STEP 1: Each of you should take a piece of paper and pen or pencil. Together randomly
    decide on 20 numbers between 1 and 60. Write down the numbers in a column on the left
    hand side of your paper.

    STEP 2: Below is a list of numbered questions. Beginning with the top of your column,
    match the numbers you choose with the corresponding question. Each of you should ask
    your partner this question. If your spouse answers correctly (you are the judge), he or she
    receives the number of points indicated for that question, and you receive one point. If
    your spouse answers incorrectly, neither of you receive any points. The same rules apply
    after you answer. The winner is the person with the higher score after you’ve both
    answered all 20 questions.
