I just watched "Never Been Kissed" (with Drew Barrymore), and that last scene where he stalks out onto the field, and gathers her into his arms for a kiss, well, that really got to me.

I love kissing.

Those slow, soft, gut- tearing kisses that make my eyes roll back into my head, or the type of toe- curling lust created when I am pushed up against a wall, his hands holding my face, teeth biting lips, toungues everywhere. And those surprise kisses on the back of my neck, knees going weak as I lean back.

I miss kissing.

"B" is still around once or twice a week, but he is getting on my nerves. Basically, he's as bright as a houseplant. He is great company.....when he doesnt speak. when his mouth open, Forest Gump pops out.

God, I know this sounds terrible, but I keep him around for sack value only.

Shitboy could kiss.Big Time.
(God forbid I ever need a kiss THAT bad!)

I miss kissing.

Do people still 'neck'?
You remember...as a teen sitting and kissing for a long long time,building to a desperate scramble with the clothes, or not. Maybe not, maybe just kiss.

Mmmmmmm kissing.

March 1983,school dance, Robby (Mmm Robby!)and I slow dancing, and he kissed me. I went limp, and my head drooped back. He held my head, so gently, and kissed me totally senseless. We didnt even use any tongue, we were so young. I was hooked.

well guys...Does anyone else miss kissing? Or am I the only one 'not getting any'?

I'm a big fan of good kissing..I could go the rest of my life and never have sex with another human being except my husband, as long as every few years I could have a toe curling, first kiss from someone...Oh, man. I LOVE 'em.
Glad you're back Kelli

Oh goody, Kelli's back !!! I've missed you !

But I am not kissing you !

Now to the op.

I love to be kissed, when I was 15 I was dating a guy who could and would just make-out for hours at a time. First guy that ever made me WANT to do more than kiss. But he wouldn't, I was 15, he was 20, can you say jail bait ?

Everyone we knew swore we were "doin it " , but we never did. ::sigh::. He also knew how to give a great hicky.

If I weren't married to The LION now, I would hunt him down and jump his bones ! And let him kiss me till I suffocated to death !

I have to stop thinking about this now ! It gets me all flustered !

Welcome back, Kelli! Many more have said it, but damn if it ain't good to have you back!

Kissing is highly underrated because so few do it right. It ain't just "swappin' spit". It's an art that so few have mastered.

I love soft sweet slow wet kisses that last 3 days. My favorite part of a womans' body is that strip between her ear and her collarbone.

The last woman I fell in love with had a mouth like a piece of rotten fruit; soft and sweet and juicy. we spent 2 weeks on a bus tour through mexico that presented a lot more opportunities for kissing and caressing than intercourse, and I didn't feel deprived in the least. Wow!

I could kiss the right woman for days.

Sometimes the right simile means everything, doen't it. William Carlos Williams would be proud.

On topic, I love kissing. Have once or twice even had the sublime pleasure of bringing a woman to orgasm solely by kissing her: face, lips, breasts, belly -- sweet beyond words, and the greatest foreplay ever devised by man, beast or demi-semi-hemigod.

Sunbear: Considerate of you, but nah. Not falling for that one. I have heard from many people the 'sex is overrated' thing, but never about kissing.

And yes, I have never been kissed.

Guanolad, I hesitate to post this for fear of appearing patronizing, but FWIW, kissing is not instinctive like some books or movies would have you believe.

Take equal parts passion, affection, and communication, sprinkle in a pinch of humor (never take it too seriously), and blend slowly over a warm heat until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed, and remember that it's the relationship between the participants where the magic occurs.

Thanks Lvick, but no need to worry. When things happen, they'll happen. I'm sure I'll figure it out when it arises (to coin a phrase). Up until now, they've never happened. It's really that simple.

Guano..you mean you have EVER kissed a woman?

You seem like such a little stud.....how did you miss out on that?

If it didnt cost over 2 thousand bucks to get to you, I would fly over, and kiss you myself!


Gotta go to work, back in about 10 hours.
B'Bye!

Zette, I'm with you. I could (am) faithful, but I do wish kissing wouldn't be considered adulterous. Sometimes you just can't help looking at a man's lips and wondering....

I've said it before: intercourse is overrated and making out is underrated. The kids today that jump right to the intercourse part are missing out on some awesome sexual experiences.

Humpf.. you're just sucking on a 30 ft pipe, the last 3 ft of which is full of shit.

Naw.. one of the great things about kissing is it gives you time to explore your lover before the two minutes fifty seven minutes of squishing noises starts. I always find it a turn on when a girl jumps me instead of vice versa, so if I can find just the right spot on the back of the neck.. it makes the time worth it.

A little stud??? Well, a compliment's a compliment.

Confession time
I have given at least five women orgasms without ever touching them. And most of them have told me it was some of the best sex they've ever had, and came back for more.

Ah, the power of the voice...

Errrrr.... care to elaborate a bit, Guano ?

I've done some wild things in my day, but I never TALKED a woman to the roof

Or are you trying to say you just popped in a Barry White CD ?

Yeah, okay, some people were touching some things, which undoubetedly helped. But they definitely all said it was my voice, what I was saying, and how I said it, that brought them up to and over the edge.

I'm seriously considering being a phone sex guy for a living, actually...

Kissing (w/GBS of course) is a good thing. A very good thing. Morning pecks. G'nite busses. And passionate lib locks.

Much like wines, kissing comes in many varieties... and vintages.

Kissing is a mighty fine thing, yes. But....

I feel compelled to recall something said once on a sitcom: to guys, kissing is like the comedian who comes out before Pink Floyd goes on. It's not that we don't like the comedian...it's just, that's not why we bought the ticket....

Hi kelli!

The very best for me is that first kiss. You know, you both sorta move toward each other and your entire body is humming like mad... you never know what it will be like until your lips touch.

I haven't had a really great kiss in a long time but I'm sure there is a great pair of lips just waiting for me out there. Hopefully, they are attached to a face!

Best!

Welcome back, Kelli, how's your Mom doing?

I remember (changing the subject back to the OP) a guy I met at Limelight (a then-trendy NY club) in the mid-'80s. Cute Wall Street type. Only met him that one night--don't even know his name--but I still remember, 15 years later, his kisses, which melted the soles off my shoes.

Wonder whatever happened to him . . .

Kissing is de-fucking-lightful!
Sure, I like all the other stuff, too...very much. But a good kiss is like that feeling just before orgasm....mmmmmmm, feels so good it's excruciating.

And what's all this about "kissing vs. sex"? Kissing is a big part of sex! If you don't feel that way, you ain't doing it right.

Well spoke Tennhippie, Dear Max, please have the grace to speak only for yourself. I have been to shows where the opener was the best part on more than one occasion. Besides, IMHO excellent kissing can happen when there's no intention to move on to sex. All the parts can be enjoyed for themselves or as a part of the whole,

Sigh... kissing. There is nothing more erotic than a good, long, passionate kiss. Orgasms? Sure, I like those, but I can take care of that myself if need be. There is something about really good kissing that trancends all of that carnal pleasure stuff and puts it on an entirely new plane... I have to stop now, 'cause I'm starting to get really excited just thinking about it...

Hee! I laughed, Max....and it's all in WHO you kiss, babe....

I remember my first (and only) kiss. Guy was a smoker, which was a turnoff....but DAMN, could he kiss. Melted on my front porch when he decided to kiss me one night. (We had been friends for a year) Then the kisses stolen in the hallway at school the next day....of course, I later found out he was dealing drugs, and that was the end of that. Wonder where he is now....

It can be, but in my experience kissing is given too little priority in the ultimate quest for intercourse. Since I've been married for 10+ years, I find myself wanting to return to the days where intercourse was not a guaranteed thing, just so we could go back to necking for hours and hours.

My top three things in life:

1.hugs.
2.sex.
3. kissing.

And what a wonderful world it is when you can get all three at once!

Those long, slow kisses...with just a hint of tongue...tracing her lips....sucking on her tongue a little...nibbling on her lower lip....

OK, I'll stop now.

Handy -- I've run across that story, too. Interesting supposition but pretty much zero firm evidence. One could easily imagine a hslf dozen other theories or the origin of kissing which are equally plausible and equally without direct evidence.

Don't even get me started on the "origins of human intelligence" stories. I mean, really, throwing rocks?!?!

I adore kissing. Often I like it better than the actual sex, which in my case often makes me feel as though parts of my anatomy are going to fall off from exertion. But I could just lie there naked with him and kiss for hours.... what a picture. Excuse me, I have to go now.

Kissing was born when a mother would chew her food and drool it into the babys mouth.

Kissing is great... I love it. However, kissing someone who doesn't know how to do it properly or can't be bothered to kiss you before going straight for the bullseye is a drag.

Re: the "origins" of kissing.
I don't see why there would necessarily be a practical need that evolved into what we now know as a kiss. All kinds of animals display various impractical behaviors during mating rituals. I think Nature approves of fun.
