So nice 😍😍, you enjoy yourself op

Blimey, skin elasticity in your 50s is different to in your teens. You could end up sucking on someone's neck, and leaving a big old flap of skin hanging about for days.😂

Caswallonthefox · 09/01/2025 22:45

Never liked hickies in my teens, never mind my 50's. Normal bruises hurt enough, why the hell would I want self inflicted (so to speak) ones?

Thank you and I will.

if our daughter asks - “what’s that on your neck?”

we will simply explain :

”well, when a mummy and daddy love each other very much…” Grin

I expect you’ve all been there ..

I thought you were talking about some sort of new snack. It sounds like a chocolate brownie or something like a mini cocktail sausage.

But no I think this is grim.

'LoveBites' sounds like a posh vegan cocktail sausage... marketed at people wanting a romantic picnic date.... "Love each other, and love animals".

Idontjetwashthefucker · 09/01/2025 22:53

Nice? No. Gross? Yes

corvidconvo · 09/01/2025 22:56

I wouldn't, but then I've never found the idea appealing, at any age.

onceuponatimelived · 09/01/2025 22:57

Oh no.

This could sound profitable if it was marketed in the right way …

Valentine’s Day snack or similar ?

Disgusting at any age and so childish

We did them but not visible in ordinary clothes.

starsinthedarksky · 09/01/2025 23:22

I think it’s gross. I’m 25 and would want one/to give one now never mind in 25 years time! I think the last time I had one was 15 and I hated it!!
