I can see where she is coming from. There are times I’d rather just sit around and have an interesting conversation than get roped into playing board games. Years ago my housemate’s girlfriend always used to do this, particularly Pictionary. She was an only child, so this might have something to do with it. But yeah, some days I was just not in the mood and board games killed off a fun conversation.
