Silly things that you do with your partner that you wouldn't do with anyone else...! (Light hearted)

Okay I will start... Been with my partner for 4 years, despite the below, we are both mature adults in professional jobs but behind closed doors we can be like big kids!

* disclaimer: some embarrassing and immature things below,, honestly I expect some negative comments... that's okay!*

  1. Whilst we are cleaning our teeth we whack each others tooth brushes like we are having a sword fight
  2. We get in to playful fights, lots of light pinching and tickling!
  3. Bottom burps still makes us both roar with laughter
  4. Silly little pranks- Last week I flicked my partners penie whilst having a wee resulting in very wet joggers!

More to follow..!

Anyone else as silly/immature as us at times?

Throwing open the curtains and shouting "Good morning, city!" like in the Lego Movie.

Making our cats speak in silly voices - we do this all the time!

One of us dresses as Santa, the other tells what they would like for Christmas, and says what they think they've done that's naughty or nice.

EvangelineTheStar · 01/01/2019 18:20

We used to play fight all the time, but now we have D.C., we are too knackered! Grin

QueenofallIsee · 01/01/2019 18:34

When hugging it is the law that one of us says ‘I wuv oo’ and the other one has to respond ‘I wuv oo more’ - it is utterly nauseating and if anyone heard us we would never live it down.
Regular raspberries blown at inopportune moments.

MrBrown · 01/01/2019 19:07

Whoever is following the other up the stairs pokes them in the bum hole and shouts 'POKEY BUMHOLE'.

Debag whichever one of us is washing up.

Cupcake each other or waft smelly farts.

Winterfellismyhome · 01/01/2019 19:13

Replacing words in songs with fart, poo or bum. Big fans of toilet humour in this house 😁

pinkiepie1 · 01/01/2019 19:13

Oooh we do pokey bum too haha. (never admit that irl haha)

Elephantina · 01/01/2019 19:20

We do impressions of all the people who have annoyed us recently, repeatedly

Do impressions of each other

Roar at each others farts like 6 year olds

Try to pull the others trousers down whenever their hands are occupied

I don't do this but my DH is an expert at blowing a perfectly timed raspberry whenever I bend or lean down - usually in public. The last time he did it in Sainsburys the bloke standing near me nearly pissed himself.

Gotstuckwiththisname · 01/01/2019 20:06

We each sing a line of a specific song, getting more and more ridiculous and operatic with each line, until we get to the end and both boom caterwaul the last line.

fruityb · 01/01/2019 20:12

Debagging each other whenever the other can do nothing about it

Dancing in his undies in a morning in an apparently sexy fashion - usually with them hoisted up high and his socks pulled up

Making fart noises whenever I bend down to do anything or get up or whenever

Sticking my finger up his nose

Doing a victory lap whenever one of us gets a question on only connect or university challenge

WheelyCoteClaus · 01/01/2019 20:16

Go to kiss each other but blow each other's cheeks up first.

He waits for me to fall asleep and tickles my nose. When I wake up...he says 'wasn't me'

Cakeandbake229 · 01/01/2019 20:25

We are also guilty of the bum one going up the stairs!

We hug tightly then jump round and round and round until we both get dizzy

When I'm in an annoying giddy mood in bed sometimes I will lick his arm or face like a 3 year old!

Glad it's not just us that are immature silly buggers haha

Ah, I love these threads about silly couples' rituals!

It's our custom that when he wraps my presents or makes my birthday cake, I'm there with him, so I'm "in on the secrets". I love hearing the wrapping, and it would be great if I knew what was coming... but alas, I'm blindfolded and can't see!!!! (wails) Sad I get my own back at Easter: if he wants an egg hunt, he knows that I will blindfold him and enjoy watching him scrabble about, and that I get to eat any eggs he fails to find! Easter Grin

AlpacaPicnic · 01/01/2019 23:02

We insult each other a lot! Like he'll say 'oh did you see that stupid thing on the news?' and I'll reply 'your face?'
We also use the cats to insult each other... 'whats that, dcat? Daddy hasn't fed you because he's a big stupid meanie? Well that's ok, mummy loves you enough to feed you' etc...

We do love each other really! This year is our 26 year of bring together, and I'm only 41 :)

SirVixofVixHall · 01/01/2019 23:05

You all sound brilliant, i have to say. I ❤️ You.

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 01/01/2019 23:11

"Critically" eye each other up in the chest /breast region, then lean over and put a hand over each side and "straighten" them up. Then nod approvingly.

SirVixofVixHall · 01/01/2019 23:13

My DH has an alter ego called Ear Truffle Pig, who creeps around the house snuffling loudly, hunting for ears, which then get snuffled madly. The dcs scream at this, it isn’t just for me, although i also fall victim to the ETP.

Brook1yn · 01/01/2019 23:16

I love these threads!

If I make a cuppa, DH will inspect his beverage and query if I have spat in it. I'll say 'no more than usual'

We used to have lay ins on the weekend followed by epic play fights resulting in trying to shove each other off the bed. Alas since having DC lay ins on the weekend are as real as unicorns!

We have for the best part of 10 years pretended he is having an affair, first with a lady called Wendy and now 'busty Barbara' and will incorporate this into day to day conversations for a laugh.

donajimena · 01/01/2019 23:20

We 'argue' through gifs.

SlatternIsTrying · 01/01/2019 23:24

If one of us asks ‘have you got the key?’ it is a physical impossibility for the other one to respond with anything other than ‘ no, but I’ve got the secret’.

If DH asks where anything is, I always pretend to think it through, and then reply ‘it’s up your arse’.

The cats are really rather rude to DH, they tell him to ‘feck off’ regularly.

ShortandSweet96 · 01/01/2019 23:29

I live with my OH, no kids, I'm not 20's he's early 30's.

We keep a nerf gun in the kitchen on top of a cupboard, we use it on eachother at in-suspecting moments.

Sleep the pokey bum thing as mentioned above.

After sex I mostly always say something along the lines of "Thank you for your service" or "congratulations, you're a man!"

ShortandSweet96 · 01/01/2019 23:31

Mid 20's not, not!

MrsCatE · 01/01/2019 23:48

I sing a lot to the cat - I tailor it to him, different words to ancient 60/70`songs — everything from stuff released by 'Middle of the Road', 'Chichory Tip' via a bit of more respectable motown.

Husband just ignores so I twerk him into corners / back onto the kitchen island etc.

I think he's rather scared re my twerking.

MrsCatE · 01/01/2019 23:52

Re my previous post. I'm now going to investigate 'flossing' as possibly a more embarrassing dance to twerking.

ikltownofboothlehem · 02/01/2019 00:04

Pretty tame really.

If we're going somewhere we'll say 'Ready when you are Sergeant Pembury'

If we get exactly what we need from a shop one of us will say 'No luck then Ted?'

If we're watching a film and loads of people run into one place (eg a police raid) we'll say 'Found this spoon, serge'

Stephisaur · 02/01/2019 00:20

We laugh at farts. We’ve just had a baby who produces some epic sounds, which have us in fits of giggles.

We have a LOT of stuffed teddies, all of whom have names and who ‘speak’

Probably a million other things that I’m so used to I consider them normal!
