Page 3 | Do you miss snogging males?

Remember being 14/15 or so onwards and just sooo much kissing, so much fancying of different boys, feeling excited if you’d see them that night and if you’d get to go with them 😂 I don’t think I’ve kissed like that since my mid twenties maybe…40’s now. If you are this age and date again, do you kiss like this? I really have no idea

Together 27 years, married for 25 and still kiss passionately every day. We still fancy each other and love being together. I think maybe some people are less tactile in general, but we are both affectionate people so we are very compatible that way. I would be devastated to never get kissed like that again but that's just how I am.

I am still with my teenage boyfriend and we never lost the habit of this. It’s been twenty five years. It’s a lovely way to relax and be affectionate.

I miss drunken snogs on the dance floor- was my favourite way to round off a night out!

DH isn't a snogger sadly, but is very good at everything else so I can't complain! Do sometimes wish he'd just push me against the wall and french kiss me though!

Ask him for it. I love it. Sometimes DP just comes to my front door and when I open it that’s the first thing he does.

For those who used to with their long term partner, but now don’t, is it simply that you fell out of the habit? Or one of you doesn’t really like it? Or is it an invisible and unspoken acknowledgement on the state of your relationship? Or is it simply the same as ‘we used to have coffee in bed every Sunday, we can start doing it again and we both want to but we stopped because the tray we used broke and we never got around to buying a new one’ ie easily fixable?

@Boredeoboredbored would you feel okay snogging today or would it feel too weird, like the moment has passed?

I think when you reach perimenopausal status, if you snog, I think it's that "fear" that in his head it means "game on" for sex. And I don't always want to have sex. I really need to build myself up for it these days.

Also, it just feels a bit "cringe". It's not that I don't love him , I do. I can't really explain it.

We Australians of Gen X call it "pashing" or "pashing off" and reminisce about it with a cheeky smile. But as teenagers my friends and I had to keep that sort of activity under wraps or risk being gossiped about and thrown out of our private school -- which, alas, did happen to some.

I loved a good pash; I was good at it, and I miss it. These days I write erotic comedy so I can keep the pashing alive in my imagination 😚

So, for all you expert lip-lockers, here's Pash, Kate Ceberano's ode to being 15 and looking for lust at the local shopping centre. If you don't want to snog/pash/tickle tonsils to it, you can certainly dance to it.

Those ones who still do it with their husbands after years and years, i’m so envious, never realised that was a thing

@PyongyangKipperbang And they are called "Men" FYI, not "males"

Thank fuck someone said it.

Do men ever miss snogging females I wonder 🙄.

It’s men and women.

I only said male’s because I was about to put boys (because I was remembering being 15) then thought that sounded a bit weird, so went with males, then couldn’t change it! I agree it isn’t right 😂

Yep me and DH kiss like that most days. Usually before sex but sometimes just randomly. Sometimes I will be making dinner / washing up and DH will come up behind me and start kissing my neck and then spin me round so we can have a snog 😍Absolutely love it!

Hgfvbd · 09/06/2025 09:19

When you snogged someone in a club/party that wasn't your partner, what did you say once the snog ended. I once had a lad say "thank you. I really enjoyed that. That was my first kiss"

Cecilly · 09/06/2025 09:07

I never really liked snogging. It was always so sloppy and gross.

milkandblackspiders · 09/06/2025 09:01

I remember a lot of not very enjoyable snogging in my teens and wondering why on earth I was supposed to like it, until I was 18 and finally met someone who was good at it! Definitely feel nostalgia for how exciting it was to kiss someone passionately for the first time.

Netcam · 09/06/2025 08:57

I'm 55 and DH and I still kiss properly day, been together 13 years.

LoafofSellotape · 09/06/2025 08:52

Been with dh 36 years and snog, I'd think there was something very wrong if we didn't.

Frightenedbunny · 09/06/2025 08:51

This makes me so sad! I loved snogging in my youth but now, no. Married almost 20 years and no longer physical in our relationship. Love him, but in a different way. Menopause has killed any physicality and I can’t see it returning!
Would love a Time Machine taking me back to my teenage years just for a cheeky 2am snog behind the town hall, just for one night!

DancingDangerously · 09/06/2025 08:48

Heh the answers are making me laugh, and I realised I didn't answer the actual question.

No, I don't miss my early kissing sessions. Don't even really remember them. I don't think they involved nasty smells or slobber or grossness, thank goodness.

DifficultEggs · 09/06/2025 08:45

Doitrightnow · 08/06/2025 22:08

No. All the kisses I had as a teenager were sloppy and gross, and the guys were usually idiots who made me feel crap afterwards.

They always tasted of cheese and onion crisps. I’m not nostalgic for it.

ByLemonFish · 09/06/2025 08:38

Yuk

WhySoManySocks · 09/06/2025 08:34

I find both of the words “snogging” and “males” revolting. 🤮

But yeah, DH and I only properly kiss during sex. I suppose that’s not great.

DancingDangerously · 09/06/2025 08:33

DH and I still kiss like that. Keeps the passion burning!

Hgfvbd · 09/06/2025 08:31

Hgfvbd · 08/06/2025 21:20

PPs and @Boredeoboredbored back in your teenage years were you ever a lad's first snog? As in his first kiss was with you.

I'm still curious. I was someone's first snog in a club once. He used his tongue a lot.

Zanatdy · 09/06/2025 05:43

I snogged someone from work the other day and i’m late 40’s. That proper kind of passionate kiss you get in new relationships / when there’s a lot of sexual chemistry. I do love snogging.

zebraprintlov · 09/06/2025 04:23

I used to love kissing on nights out 😂 I find it so passionate

FreshPrinceofKildare · 09/06/2025 04:10

Just thinking about how some words, when you think about them are weird. Snog and snogging are one of those weird words.

Worst snog ever, dance floor somewhere in Liverpool circa 1998. Young lad who had kebab breath, and didn’t use his tongue, just opened and closed his mouth like a goldfish. Bleugh.

Gowlett · 09/06/2025 03:30

I was just thinking about this today. DH was looking for a bit of a kiss & a cuddle, we haven’t been intimate in a long time…

I was remembering how exciting it used to be, when younger, kissing that boy you fancied. The intensity of the kissing sessions!
