Do you still snog/kiss with tongues?

Just wondering how many of you still snog with tongues? My OH and I have been together four years and still eat each other’s faces off at every given opportunity 😂

Of course men can use the site, but only one poster has decided to give a weird, creepy TMI about his relationship and about his wife making a thread about him and not really about the OP's actual question.

It's why I never use the sex section. It's over run by gross men.

OneWiseUmberPanda · 30/05/2025 12:50

Oh and yes, op! But only before sex now. I'd happily do it all the time but I think DH really sees it as foreplay rather than something on its own.

@Eric1964 oh love. You need to get out. Find someone who wants to snog your face off !

Oui! Brigette can't keep her hands off me.

Monsieur le Président, she might be less keen when she sees that you can't spell her name Grin

So they say that you should have at least one 6 second full on kiss a day to keep romance alive. 6 seconds is enough for the arousal to trigger.

I've told a few of my mates male and female. Most have agreed it has improved things somewhat.

Eric1964 · 30/05/2025 14:48

@OneWiseUmberPanda Well, I can't deny being a bloke! Don't think I'm "gross", but maybe you know better.

I suppose we could restrict all contributions to this thread to simply "yes" or "no" but where's the fun in that? What would we learn?

limecola · 30/05/2025 14:51

We do 29 years together, we don't do a full on snog as he leaves for work in the morning of if he's dropping me off somewhere but we do still "snog" in private.

I suppose it will vary a lot, some couples don't have sex at all, some don't sleep in the same bed, some don't even watch TV together. I'm not sure their is a normal.

C'est une petite blage que nous avons.

(I aways 'ad the poor spelling at school when she was trying to teach me things.)

Here's a weird thing:

My wife and I had sex the night we met. Her idea. Yet, right from the beginning, she completely banned kissing with tongues, which is a nightmare for me because I find it intensely intimate and erotic.

Mind you, she went on to have at least one affair, and we recently went seven years without sex. I think she has some peculiar hangups regarding sex. I should point out she's far more sexually experienced than me.

Why are you still together?

Eric1964 · 30/05/2025 16:58

greatyak · 30/05/2025 16:54

Why are you still together?

Because, after her affair, I thought reconciliation might work. Good people do stupid things. Who knows - it might work, but it's a lot harder than I thought it might be. And how long does reconciliation take? A week? A month? A year? Nobody tells you, because nobody knows. This time next year, I might not be married. Anyway - no wish to hijack this thread, but thought your question deserved an answer.

F1LandoFan · 30/05/2025 17:11

25 years together. We do still kiss with tongues yes, it usually leads to sex, and we kiss with tongues during sex. But we don’t tend to just randomly snog through the day. It really is only when one of us wants sex or during sex. Other than that it’s just a peck on the lips.

juicethoseoranges · 30/05/2025 17:34

Love a nice snog, together almost 30 years, still feel mid 20s in my head. We do it randomly throughout the day too not just when having sex.

HarryGrotter · 30/05/2025 17:59

Absolutely 30 years in and just love it, as does dh, always know where it’s leading!!

Tbh we've reached that point 5 years in where tongues pretty much always means sex.

This! Been with DH more than half my life now ha (I'm 35)

(That doesn't mean it doesn't happen! 😁)

This is tough to read. Her hangups are she’s not sexually attracted to you or if she ever was. To top it off, she’s now a cheat and still cheating Eric!. I would leave her in the dust if it won’t affect any children. You deserve better.

myfaceismyown · 30/05/2025 18:20

32 years married, and yes of course.

She’s a cheat Eric. You deserve better than that. Leave her if you can and find someone who loves and respects you and everything you’re into (Kissing with lots of tongue)

LSTMS30555 · 30/05/2025 01:32

There’s only one place I want his tongue and it ain’t in my mouth 😋🤭

Gurrrrlllll 😂

PorgyandBess · 30/05/2025 18:30

Of course! We know a couple that once admitted to us they never snog and my husband and I were secretly so surprised, we still talk about this, years later! Particularly intrigued about the sex aspect.

vdbfamily · 30/05/2025 18:34

I don't think this is too do with libido, I think it is personal preference. DH liked a good snog prior to marriage( when we were not having sex) Once we got married and started having sex, the snogging seemed less important. He is less keen than me and he is also ND so would love to see if there is some reason there. Maybe we should ask same question on the thread for those married to someone with Asperger's??
Libido still fine for both of us 23 years in.

Why are you still together? Seven years without sex is a long time, are you sure she was celibate the whole time? Banned kissing with tongues but still had an affair, something not adding up there @Eric1964

ForRubyMoose · 30/05/2025 18:49

Oh God not without brushing teeth

CoffeeCakeAndALattePlease · 30/05/2025 18:49

Not really but we never really did much snogging anyway. I’m not a big fan of kissing with tongues, never really have been.

I like kissing but minimal tongue.

we've been together 14 years but it hasn’t worn off as such, we still kiss a fair bit and have regular sex. I still fancy him.

Julia001 · 30/05/2025 18:55

After 30 years, if the tongues are out the undies are off 🤣

ElizaJ74 · 30/05/2025 19:01

Love it! Kissing is so underrated. Nothing better than snogging like teenagers
