Next, we worked for a young company and as we were all growing in our careers together, we became friendly and often partied with coworkers; in fact, several of us lived together for awhile. One weekend night a coworker had a big board game party which my GF and I both attended. One of the board games was Pictionary and we two were paired up as a Team. The more rounds of Pictionary that we played, the easier it became for me to quickly guess the answers. My GF started to notice a pattern and started testing that supposed pattern on her own by thinking hard about the answers and finding that I could quickly guess them correctly. I think it was probably after about three attempts at this kind of testing, she slightly twisted what would be the final test. She put her pencil to the paper, held it still, looked directly into my eyes, and focused hard on the target image everyone was supposed to draw. But before the timer could be turned on to start the round, I guessed the correct answer. No drawings, no clues from other competitors, just my GF's gaze. My GF jumped up and down and clapped her hands, and her face had the widest grin possible. As she told me later that night, she had confirmed that I had read her thoughts. So that was a step up to a slightly more mystical interaction than we had previously had.
