A quick peck on the lips from a male friend, what does it mean?

302 replies

waitingfornaru · 11/08/2011 16:50

I have been chatting to a man virtually every night on facebook for a couple of years. He's a family friend, we occasionally cross paths. Our conversations on there are mildly flirty every so often but neither of us like to progress into anything uncouth online.

Every night otherwise, near enough, talk about anything and everything. We don't use the Chat function or send private messages to eachother (Ok, about 2 each in two years), my reason mainly because he's already told me things like everytime he logs on, particular women always instantly send him messages, so I don't want to be like that. I also agree with him that there's nothing we can't say in 'public' on facebook, so no need for private messaging.

At a family wedding, we had our first real opportunity to sit and talk to eachother for several hours, having previously only been in the company of other family members or similar, here we were pretty much together most of the night, having both drunk, but him only a couple of pints, I gave him the usual hug goodbye and a kiss on the cheek, but he gave me a quick peck on the lips. It wasn't a misjudged aim.

What does that peck mean?

Everyone says that he likes me, but if this is alluded to in facebook conversations we both deliberately ignore it and try to change the subject!

We are both single by the way and in early 40s, both out of very long-term relationships exactly two years ago, both of us.

& ooh, I only just noticed the alcohol being poured I was too busy talking like a robot. God, I could do with some wine. I wonder if they made it in to the cinema, or if they started pressing each other up against the car & had to drive straight home.

FellatioNelson · 23/08/2011 19:37

I wonder if he has made his intentions clear yet? A contract of betrothal may be had before the night is out.

AnyFucker · 23/08/2011 19:39

blimey, sarah, that turned out quite dramatic Shock

what a twunt he is

coffeeinbed · 23/08/2011 19:41

You think?
Holding hands would be my guess.One would not want to do anything inappropiate, because He might misconstrue it.
Or updating their FB status.
But I do hope I'm wrong.

ReadyToDrink · 23/08/2011 19:41

It took me so long to work out what 'betrothal' said then. I was reading it over & over, & coming up with 'Bert Roe Thall' Blush Maybe I don't need wine after all.

Nagoo · 23/08/2011 19:41

their knees will touch in the cinema and it will feel all exciting and hot.

catsrus · 23/08/2011 19:43

oh starting my own thread not sure I'm ready for that readytodrink I might just see how it goes, casual-like, for a week or so - ATM it's me contacting him so I might need to back off and see if there is any contact the other way... put the feelers out via mutual friends, see if they get any vibes an all that.....

catsrus · 23/08/2011 19:48

his hand might brush against hers as he passes the popcorn.... Do we know what they've gone to see? Romantic? scary? weepy? comedy? Scary would be best I think, then she can cuddle him when he hides behinds his hands and asks her to tell him when it's safe to look Wink

FellatioNelson · 23/08/2011 20:29

Is she not home yet? Shock Gracious, it is twenty five minutes past the hour of eight. Mr Bates, get Smithers to saddle up the horses and send out the carriage. Our mistress may yet be staggering up the lane, all ravished and in need of doctor. Fetch hot water and towels and make up a fire!

FellatioNelson · 23/08/2011 20:30

I am enjoying this way too much. Blush

ImperialBlether · 23/08/2011 20:36

I can't wait! God knows how the OP is. If that man doesn't take the hint now, there's no hope for him.

FellatioNelson · 23/08/2011 20:36

I wonder if he is feeling her stockings?

AnyFucker · 23/08/2011 20:38

FN, you are a contrary and wanton filly, make no mistake

Nagoo · 23/08/2011 20:38

fucking hell fellatio is she in labour all ready? What did I miss? Grin

Sorry OP.

Hope you are having a nice date evening :)

AnyFucker · 23/08/2011 20:39

Oh come on now, I reckon he is whacking her nethers with his riding crop as we speak !

MrsSchadenfreude · 23/08/2011 20:48

He is giving her one hard from behind making sweet luuurve to her as we type.

MrsSchadenfreude · 23/08/2011 21:04

Thank you, AF.

geraldinetheluckygoat · 23/08/2011 21:07

I love the Bronte-esque turn that this thread has taken. I love the fact that they communicated in binary. I LOVE IT!!

I am eager, Miss Smith, to hear all about what transpired when they met. If anything unsavoury occurred

(Jesus Christ, OP, HURRY UP! I need an update immediately!)

geraldinetheluckygoat · 23/08/2011 21:09

I hope that this is a saga which continues at least until the end of the summer holidays, as I am a little bored and this is hugely interesting for me. I so want a madly happy ending for Waitingfor.

AlwaysbeOpralFruitstome · 23/08/2011 21:24

Good God it's a quarter past the hour and she is still not back!? Once sullied, a reputation can never be unsullied - I hope Waiting remembers this and is not overtaken by passions beyond her control!

Who am I kidding? I seriously hoping for reports of uncontrolled passions or a bit of frotting round the back of the plex, at the very least. Come on OP, button your blouse up and give us an update!

FellatioNelson · 23/08/2011 21:31

MrsS Shock Please! Think of the children, won't you? What language.

Arf arf arf at 'frotting round the back of the plex'. Grin

MrsSchadenfreude · 23/08/2011 21:38

Forsooth! He doth peel back her silken camiknickers! Gadzooks! He fumbleth with her clitoris! But what is this? My lady doth push back the knave! "Prithee, kind sir," she whispereth gently. "Art thou not aware, as any gentleman should be, that it is tits first?"

(Is that better FN?)
