if you prefer snogs to sex?

Passionate Kissing is one of the best bits of a new relationship
but it often seems to be forgotten later on. I enjoy sex with my bf (this isn't about his skill in bed) but there is something more intimate and romantic in a good snog for me! I think when done really well there is a sensual magic that sex doesn't really have.

I HATE tongue kissing. Nothing sexy about it IMO. I do it for DH sometimes as he likes it but I'm not keen at all.

I suppose it depends on finding a bf that's into lengthy snogging sessions as a stand alone thing? Otherwise it doesn't really work. You want to eat his face, he thinks it's foreplay leading to sex = no one's satisfied.

I think it's fairly unusual in a long term relationship to just sit about tongueing each other.

@SmileyClare
hmm
that's an interesting idea

I suppose I am hooked on NRE but why should we ever stop snogging and touching each other I want to be getting snogged for years to come. Although a quick snog then back to watching tv sounds like a perfect evening lol!

BubblyBarbara that's the most bizarre reply I have ever read about something on here ever 😂 kissing your husband or wife means you arent serious about life. Strange.

Oh, Barbara has form. Their posts rather stand out.

I love kissing. We tend to spend ages kissing and touching before sex (unless having a quickie). I find kissing gets me really turned on as I prefer that intimacy first rather than just getting straight into the shagging part. It helps that OH and I are great kissers together, so it feels really good. Each to their own though I guess.

NRE is new relationship endorphins? I have a feeling you'll change your mind after you've been with him for 20 years..he hasn't brushed his teeth, he's got stubble, he's just eaten a curry etc.

Enjoy it while it lasts though , if he's up for it. I mean you don't want to be lunging at him with your tongue every time he sits next to you

that's exactly right im so lucky my man is a fab snogger too.

@Titsywoo
why not ?
a nasty tongue down the throat I can understand but
a slow sensual French kiss licking each others lips ,twirling tongues around there's nothing quite like it for forgetting the world

ooo I love kissing, sometimes we agree to have a ‘making out’ session without do anything else sexual. I love a sleepy morning snogging session.

Licking each others lips? Really?

I used to love a good snog but Dh has a tongue tie which unfortunately makes him not a good kisser. I miss it sometimes.

Love love love a good snog!

@bluebluezoo
slowly and sideways or in-between lip and gums not like dogs haha!

Joe Wicks recently said on relationships the importance of kissing and how when you stop doing so regularly the relationship soon falls dead which I thought was very true.

And I don’t mean kissing but KISSING it’s what turns the passion on.

I miss those long kissing sessions. I wouldn't swap sex to have them back though. I'd really like to be greedy and have both! Alas after15 years of marriage, Dh isn't up for much kissing unless it's a precursor to sex.

Ive been with men where its excellent and ones where I cant bare it I always thought snogging/French kissing/kissing were the same thing. The alternative is a peck on the lips/cheek.

@SimonJT sounds romantic and ideal will suggest this to bf
that's how to start a day right
is that a weekly or monthly thing?

@OfficeMonkee
in my head I always split it as
kissing- just smooches
French kissing-kissing with tongues
snogging-French kissing with passion and a bit of groping

My god I miss snogging. I’ve been separated from my ex for over 3 years and haven’t been interested in dating but now I could really go a great kiss up against a wall. We were together for 20 years so it’s been a while

I love lots of kissing then sex. Miss that tbh. (It's been a while)

God I miss snogging and cuddling and that sort of intimacy
Don't miss sex at all whatsoever

I love kissing, (passionately rather than a peck hello or goodbye) but my partner doesn't really. The only time we kiss really passionately is during foreplay. We haven't kissed like that other than to lead into sex since we first met.

We are intimate in other ways, physically and emotionally, he's just not keen on kissing haha.

We don’t have an official timetable just whenever we fancy it really. A bit more than usual recently as sex was off the menu for a while due to him having surgery and me being paranoid he’d somehow hurt himself before he was fully healed.

Absolutely love kissing. DH and I have a general goodbye little kiss when we leave in the morning etc but sometimes what’s needed is just a good snog. It helps the intimacy and makes me feel closer to dh

I love kissing in a new relationship, but always seem to go off it a bit and just want the sex bit after a while.

Last of the old romantics, me 😆

Hate kissing specially with tongues. But then I'm not keen on sex either.
Maybe I'm just odd.
