OH wants me to play with him

This is why we used to love having GS over here when he was younger; he loved to play board games and cards, but we don’t see a lot of him now, and especially not in the present trying circumstances. I’ve sometimes asked DH if he fancies playing cribbage, or dominoes, but he doesn’t see me as a worthy opponent! Can’t think why?!

I can recommend Genius Square and he can play by himself!

I hate board games, always have.

Must admit, though, that some of them can be enjoyable if I can be persuaded to join in. It really depends on how good they are.

We play card games and Anglesey monopoly game it passes the time.

I like board games, just can't stand any card games, which the rest of the family seem to love. But after an argument between DH and myself when I refused to sell him Park Lane, our daughter has banned us from ever playing it again!

I enjoy playing board games and cards at the moment, particularly at that time of day when it is starting to get dark and I begin to flake. We normally combine it with a cuppa and play for a couple of hours before I get dinner prepared. I like gin rummy at present. Give it a try!

Tell him you will only play if you can have an open bottle of wine and a glass at your side. It will probably improve your performance, and certainly your frame of mind. You could let him have a glass too.

Yes your title definitely definitely drew me in . I love a good board game. I hate Monopoly though.

I've got nobody to play with!
I quite like games, but rarely persuade grandson to play a board game.

We play scrabble, chess, backgammon, boxed in, or even monopoly once, after lunch on those winter days when walking is out of the question. It fills an hour or two between housework, craft, reading and tv. NB no ironing.
We chat as we play,so the games are not all consuming and they keep the little grey cells active I’d say yes to the board games, you might enjoy them. If not you did at least try.

The roles are reversed in this household.
I’m losing the battle.

Commiserations. You need some nice prizes for winning.
My late husband loved golf, I tried it but I’m not sporty, just arty. Now he’s gone, I wish I had enjoyed it and joined him in something he loved but it was like rubbing a cat’s fur the wrong way.

Give it a go, you might enjoy it,and it will get your brain working too.
Before Lockdown I joined a board game Group at my local library and it was fun and very sociable. I really miss that and the Book Club I belong to.
