Do you still 'snog' your husband?

We've been together for 7 years, married for 3. I don't think we've had anything more passionate than a peck on the lips for about 6 years Shock - yes, even during sex... Interested what other couples do!?

Yes we do but then he gets all riled up and that is not great if it is in the kitchen and the kids there!
Snogging always leads to sex with us :)

Ilovemypantry · 26/08/2018 00:08

Don’t you both have to have really fresh breath though so sometimes a spontaneous snog might not be very pleasant? Or is that just me being silly?🤔

Funny actually, my husband snogged me for the first time in probably a few years the other day, it was during sex though. I've no idea why we stopped snogging? It was nice though so maybe we'll start again!

headinhands · 26/08/2018 00:39

Occasionally yeah. Usually as part of a lusty groping session on both sides.

OnlyObjectivity · 26/08/2018 00:42

Yeah, what is it exactly about that word "caressing" that makes me shudder too.

All it needs is to be suffixed with "during lovemaking" and I'll be throwing up a whole bucketload of sick...

aperolspritzplease · 26/08/2018 00:44

Nope. 17 years together and I miss it.

Aria2015 · 26/08/2018 00:50

I can't imagine having sex without full on snoging! We've been together 15 years and while we don't snog in the street so much these days we definitely do when it comes to sex.

esk1mo · 26/08/2018 00:53

ive always done that in relationships. maybe if you get drunk together he might loosen up

maras2 · 26/08/2018 01:02

Kisses every day but good snogs perhaps twice weekly.
50 years on and still love kissing. Smile

i refuse to snog my husband Richard anymore because he always eats parsnips RAW even though I always tell him not to!! Now his breath always smells disgusting..

CheeseAndOnionIceCream · 26/08/2018 01:25

I'm properly laughing out loud here at the posters cringing at the words 'caressing' and 'during lovemaking'! Grin

MouseholeCat · 26/08/2018 01:31

6 years together, 3 years married. Back when we were dating we'd have long snogging sessions (although I'd call it making out I guess). Not sure exactly when that stopped, but now it's limited to during foreplay and sex.

That's okay with me- I feel we both put extra effort in during the dating stage to have minty fresh breath. Now I'm aware of DH's love for eating insane amounts of pickles, and he's not a great fan of my love for oily fish.

Choccywoccyhooha · 26/08/2018 01:37

Nah, I never liked kissing anyway. But I have some issues around food and have never felt comfortable with two open mouths touching. I guess we stopped snogging a few years in and it was a relief for me. We've been together for 12 years.

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 26/08/2018 01:45

Haha, yes but same as Gina, only indoors now, no PDAs! Grin

mayandjuniper · 26/08/2018 02:26

Nope, and sadly no desire to. I really wish I did want to, but it's just not there.

Orangesox · 26/08/2018 02:35

Absolutely yes! Mostly during sex/foreplay as like previous posters it tends to always lead to sex. We’ve been together 13 years this year and although we go through sex related droughts due to work commitments, health issues etc... there’s never been a moment yet where I’ve physically not wanted to “snog” his face off Blush

Karen2018 - Virgins? Eh? 🤔

Right that's it - I'm just gonna go in for the kill the next time the mood takes me. I do
really miss it. Yeah we also need a good drinking session together too - that doesn't happen much nowadays either!

I taught DH how to kiss... We kiss A LOT. Only problem is that it turns him on way too easily. I have a real gift 😉

Both of our parents also make out on the regular. Maybe we've just followed suit...

Worieddd · 26/08/2018 04:51

Yes when shagging

MaryShelley1818 · 26/08/2018 05:46

We snog a lot! Most kisses lead to a proper snog! Albeit slightly less frequently than we used to as we have an 8mth old baby.

Flashinggreen · 26/08/2018 06:08

Love snogging, not particularly hung up on shagging. But a good snog can lead to a shag with me, if the timing’s right.

I agree with the above though that I feel mean snogging DH when I know I don’t want to shag as it turns him on too easily.

Been together 20 yrs, married 14 on Wednesday!

CantChoose · 26/08/2018 06:14

Very, very rarely. But we were never reallly snoggers even in the beginning. I was with other partners so I assume it's DH who isn't really into it but I've never discussed it that I recall. We do have different kisses for different situations, it's not always just a chaste peck! But proper snogging with tongues, hardly ever. Not sure I can remember how any more!!

PirateWeasel · 26/08/2018 06:17

Yep! Usually leads to "things" though, so have to time it carefully 😉
