I welcome you to my blog. When it comes to having fun, we all have different things we engage in to while away time and have fun as well as make memories. I have friends for whom the truth or dare game is always the first thing they suggest when asked to make suggestions of games we can actually engage in and have fun with, but for me, the truth or dare game is no fun, and I hardly participate in it, so once that suggestion is made and they have other people's support, I already know it is either I watch from the sidelines or I am forced to get busy just so I am not part of the game.
Sometimes I feel like the truth or dare game is an opportunity to pry into people's privacy as well as get them to do things you know they would not do on a normal day. So many people have actually regretted the things they did all in the name of truth or dare; many relationships have crashed for this game, daring somebody's partner to do something crazy, and then their partner takes it up, and things go bad. When you are at a party and they say, "I hope we are all adults in here," just know they are about to start something crazy, and if you don't want to be part of it, it is at that point that you go home.
Parties are fun; playing games to help keep the fun going is still okay, but sometimes when people are at this game, the questions they ask each other are too personal, more like they have been waiting for an opportunity to actually get to know what is going on in each other's lives, and if they approach them privately, they might not open up, but using the game as an opportunity to get them to open up in front of a whole lot of other people. Right from my high school days, I never liked the truth or dare game, and I try not to be a part of it. The truth is more interesting when you watch from the sidelines and get to see people answer the questions they are asked or rush to do what they were dared to do.
I have always avoided being part of the game, but it always annoyed friends until they started complaining about how I don't like being a part of the things they do, and they got me one Friday evening to be a part of the game. I had to give in after so many complaints from them just to please them. That evening they made me dislike the game even more; it was like they had it all planned out. They already know my likes and dislikes, and I could not avoid them in any way. At first I said the truth, and they asked me a very personal question, and it was at this point I lost interest in the game but did not leave.
It got to my turn again, and I said dare, and they dared me to sing 🤦. Everybody close to me knows I don't do singing because I don't even have the voice to. If you cannot get it done, you take a shot of vodka, but we were out of vodka, and these guys made me sing for about three minutes. That was the last time I participated in the game, and I don't see myself even giving in again for any reason.
