Roughly where do you live? > Please feel free to offer any extra information or stories! 1. I’m 27. 2. I don’t usually kiss opposite sex friends on the lips. I kiss them on the cheek, depending on the friendship; the closer we are the higher the likelihood of a kiss. I do kiss same sex friends, usually on the cheek, quite often on the lips. I do not kiss family on anything, the most that is shared is a hug. We are quite a cold family I suppose! 3. I live in London, UK. ---

1. Roughly how old are you? - Mid-40’s 2. Do you kiss opposite sex friends good bye on the lips? - I used to, with a small, select number of female friends with whom I had flirty-type friendships to begin with. I must say I [del]kind of[/del] enjoyed the practice. 🙂 Once I started to get serious with the girl who is now my wife, it didn’t feel right anymore, and I cut it out. 3. Roughly where do you live? - Chicago area [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/kissing-friends/504519.md?page=3)
