How often do you kiss each other, any sort of kiss ?

@Ponoka7

I've gone off kissing. We are in our 50's. Once a day does me now.
Me too 🤗

Kissing - constantly if we're around each other much to my kids disgust (he's their SD).

Snogging - full tongue tangling, anywhere from once to several times a day? Certainly, a day never goes past without it!

CornishGem1975 · 15/03/2022 10:23

Just to add, I'd rather have no kissing than bad kissing. My ex was awful, we hardly kissed properly in decades. I'd kiss my now DH all day long if I could!

TheLoupGarou · 15/03/2022 10:27

Kissing - loads of times a day.
Snogging - rarely (I find it a bit gross)

Every day, about 3 times a day

ManateeFair · 15/03/2022 10:44

Proper snogs - almost never. Maybe before or after sex, but even then, I’m not that into snogging really.

A peck on the lips or cheek and a hug - at least twice a day, probably more.

Lampface · 15/03/2022 10:59

Lots of pecks throughout the day and a nice snog in bed before going to sleep.

Quite a lot of kissing daily - in greeting, saying goodbye and general affection etc, but snogging is incredibly intimate and something I only do very occasionally and only during sex.

I have a pretty uninhibited sex life, but snogging DH doesn't come naturally to me any more unfortunately. Encouraged by so many on here that do though!

Imperfectp3rf3ction · 15/03/2022 11:27

A few times before he leaves for work type dependant on wether we have time for.. some good morning goodness :L when he gets home to say hello and as thank you for dinner, coffee , bath or whatever when we settle down for snuggles in the evening on the sofa he will kiss my forehead and lips a lot really and then at bedtime 😈 we are both physically affectionate though

Somethingblew · 15/03/2022 11:59

Pecks before work in the morning, getting home in the evening qmd intermittently throughout. In the evening if we are together in the living room, we tend to have a quick peck when either of us leaves the room even to go to the toilet! So basically every time we walk past each other.

A smooch before bed each night.

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 15/03/2022 12:00

@SafeMove we do a lot of hugging in the kitchen. Listen to the arctic monkeys song Mardy Bum Grin

sasparilla1 · 15/03/2022 13:18

I've been with dh for 17 years, and we kiss a lot! We're quite a touchy feely couple.

We kiss when one of us leaves the house, normally when one of gets home and just for the hell of it. We also have lots of smooches, snogs and hugs.

We did have a bit of a barren patch when we were having some issues a few years ago, but I love the place we're in now.

Mybumlooksbig · 15/03/2022 23:10

Can't remember the last time Sad

Hebeee · 16/03/2022 05:15

Occasional pecks, can't remember the last time we snogged....ten or more years ago, perhaps. We do hug lots though.

We used to snog loads, but neither of us initiates it anymore - nor sex very much since the bloody menopause, which began when I was mid forties - and I can't say I miss the snogging, tbh.

We're in our fifties and have been married thirty-three years.

ToniLaRoni · 16/03/2022 09:25

Most days a few pecks. Normally to say goodbye/good night and usually a little peck when we're cuddling which we do a lot.

For some reason kitchen cuddles end in deeper kissing. Who knows why Hmm

Snogging (ugh hate the word) is really only a sex thing so 3-4 times a week.

Late 30s - Been together 19 years.

Maybebaby8 · 16/03/2022 09:39

Minimum 2 times a day. When leaving fir work and when we see each other after work. Some days it's a lot more. But if we're not kissing we're cuddling or holding hand's etc even just a foot touching. There is always intimacy

mydogisthebest · 16/03/2022 17:28

We don't really snog any more but we do kiss each other many times a day.

Always first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Also when DH goes to work and when he gets home. If either of us go out without the other we always kiss goodbye.

We cuddle and hold hands most evenings and will often give each other a kiss. Also when we pass each other in any room.

We are both in our 60's and have been married 42 years

NETSRIK · 16/03/2022 17:32

Never. 30 years of nothing.

Bofthebang · 16/03/2022 17:34

My husband and I have been together over 20 years and we kiss all the time. We’re both very tactile people so there’s plenty of cuddles and kissing on a daily basis in our household - even the dog gets roped into it Grin

CIaireFraser · 16/03/2022 17:38

When DH used to go to work we would have a quick peck goodbye before he left. He's wfh for two years now so we don't do that anymore. Sometimes he'll surprise me with a kiss on the head when he's passing, maybe a couple of times a week. Never kisses me goodnight or anything. We never snog and he doesn't like it if I surprise him with a kiss. We don't really have sex anymore either.

I miss kisses and snogs and sex so much.

GladAllOver · 16/03/2022 17:41

Any time we pass each other. It would be odd if we met and didn't kiss.

doadeer · 16/03/2022 17:45

Been with partner for 11 years. We kiss multiple times a day. Proper snog probably once a day. He is gorgeous it would be rude not to Wink

LemonJuiceFromConcentrate · 16/03/2022 17:46

Quite a lot. Love kissing.
