Say -"ooh don't kiss me on the lips I think I may be getting a cold sore"

He may never kiss you again

My MIL started doing this to DS when he was young and I'm sorry to say it made me cringe. So DH said we're trying to teach him not to kiss on lips as he copies and does it to his friends (which was true), and they are usually running with snot. MIL either took the hint or was so repelled by the idea of kissing DS who'd been kissing snotty friend that she's not done it since.

Bu I guess you can't do that with your FIL! He really should take the hint when you turn your head - offer more ear zone than cheek - this worked with DH's snoggy uncle. Now he bellows 'she doesn't want to kiss me' and I just smile and agree!

When you post an AIBU and everyone agrees with you then you just ^know" that your fil is so out of order.

YUK YUK. I have this too and have no advice some fils are very thick skinnerd, I try the squirming away, turning my face etc but sometimes they still get you!

Ewwwww.

I would find a make-up artist to construct a big cold-sore before you see him next.

Yuk

Glue a few rice krispies on your lips and tell him you have a highly contagious skin condition.

i don't mind people kissing ds on the lips (he's 2), i don't mind my friends kissing me on the lips, not even my mum or dad. My grandma does it though and i hate it. i think it's the wrinklyness of her lips. yuck.

Absolutely YANBU. It is an invasion of your privacy.

I'd go passive-aggressive and eat loads of garlic before you have to be around him, then point this out before he tries to kiss you. Make it into a bit of a joke if you can.

Snap, bananaskin. I opened the thread with the intention of suggesting making a gigantic weeping cold sore from loo roll papier mache and food colouring.

I kiss my own Dad on the lips but if DP's tried to kiss me I'm sure I'd be sick
