I wish I got kissed more

[KC11]

That really..... I am an old romantic at heart, well I'm past 40 anyway. I remember the butterflies of teenage kisses and how exciting they were. Now my DH never kisses me. He says he feels silly and doesn't really like kissing. TV programmes and movies can literally make me swoon. A good old snog gets me in the mood and once that happens I can let myself relax and enjoy. Am I silly? I long for long slow meaningful kisses. Does anyone know what i mean?

Yes! Snogging! (Horrible word for delightful thing.) I remember kissing my teenage boyfriends for hours. Swoonsome.

That's SO sad, that you and DH have a kissing mismatch. TBH DH and I don't kiss much either any more. I must get onto it.

My first boyfriend (me age 15, him age 16) was a wonderful kisser. We'd do nothing more adventurous than kissing. In the cinema, when he'd walk me home and at my parents front door hiding ourselves so my parents would not see. I'm sure they knew. It was soooo nice. He had the most gorgeous long eyelashes. It was so innocent and so sweet. our relationship lasted about 4 months.

I've been married to DH 15 + years and it used to bother me less than it does now. I think I need DH to be more tactile. maybe I'll refer to it as smooching.

We all need human contact. I love it when my nephews and nieces cuddle me and plant a surprise kiss on my head or face. If I could have had children I would have.

Good luck Ohgood Treat yourselves to a good old fashioned snog.

I love bring kissed, and my fairly new lover, although known him ages,kisses me a lot, and hes a lovely kisser, and he thinks i am too, he cuddles me a lot too,
My exh was never into cuddling,
So comforting

I love snogging. Haven't had a kiss or sex or anything for 18 months....

You are so right.... I am recently separated from my non-kisser husband of 15 years. There were lots of issues but the non-kissing in retrospect was definitely one of them. I forgot how much I loved it until I kissed someone else, then it all fell into place and I realised one of the main reasons I lost interest in sex. Now I'm dating and without fail, a good kiss just makes me melt into a massive heap of desire!

Snogging is very much part of our sex life. Either hard, full on or tender and slow. I would definitely miss it if it didn't happen.

I didn't realise how much I missed proper deep kissing until me and DP started doing it again recently. It really helps sex be great. I then realised it was because he'd stopped smoking and tasted good again. Even when he used to brush his teeth and use mouthwash there was always a rank taste of cigs..

I am craving my H's attention and emotional affection. Its what I need. Why can't he listen and try at least. We're not kids He and I should be able to listen and adapt. We're in a right pickle

That's me haribo. I get silly and horns and more affectionate which only leads in onerror direction but H doesn't like it. I was his first GF. Only GF. Now his wife. Over 15 years.

Oh people on here are making my heart sink my DH is no much of a kisser I feel like I’m missing out.

I used to love kissing. My OH doesn't want or feel the need to kiss. Makes me sad. Maybe that's why I'm not much interested in sexy stuff anymore either. My heart swoons when I see a movie kiss scene. Sad.

Not to hijack, hopefully to follow on the discussion. If you're in love with a non-kisser and it is affecting sex life...how does one go about getting him to kiss more?!

I can't imagine going without kissing, seems a bit impersonal. Would rather go without sex. So, people have a sex life with their husbands without kissing ? I don't think I'd get in the mood for having sex if there was no kissing.

We do a kissing reset every now and again. No quick pecks allowed at least 15 seconds and it always get us snogging again. It's easy to lose in a long term relationship.

Sorry . I was replying to other posters.
To OP J want to say - No, of course you're not silly- you need to talk. And surely he must enjoy kissing once you're started. There must be nerve endings ect...?

I don't think I'd manage sex without kissing either.

Bloody hell if Dh didn't like kissing I'd revolt. Essential to me. I think we've got through some very dry sex patches because we always hug and kiss.

I would have some very specific round table discussions with your h. What doesn't he like about it? Are there breath issues? As for the feeling silly bit, the aim is to make his wife feel good! Reminds me of a partner who responded to a request for flowers by informing me that he wasn't a flower person. So? I am!*

*Since then I have grown up and now associate flowers with bastards

I don't know whether to laugh or cry - for 15 years I slept next to someone every night and definitely in most recent years, lay there dreading the poking and pawing that initiated sex. Turns out all we needed to do was get snogging.
Now I'm a single mum, and manage to get out on dates infrequently, but when I do, oh the kissing! So now, permanently horny, with little opportunity

God I miss kissing DP.
We got back together many years after an on/off 2 years as teenagers. Now nearly 40 and been together properly 4 years.
It was so exciting and intense at first, I felt amazing after thinking I would never be confident with someone again after exH made me feel like shit.
Now he has got used to being on SSRIs and isn't bothered. I loved feeling so wanted, and the kissing was amazing at first. It's like he has got the stability he wanted and doesn't feel like he needs to make the effort. I feel crap and unwanted again.
It's good otherwise and I love him so much but I do, I do miss the kissing.
