Kissing someone after they have taken drugs

I understand Drugs is a really sore subject, and I 100% do not condone them at all. I have never been in this position before but wanted to get opinions.

I have searched on the internet but not getting any definitive answers, also no opinions from anyone else is available.
The man in question who I kissed, I know takes cocaine on the off occasion, when I say off occasion- from what I know apparently he takes it ‘very rarely’ most times when he’s out and he wants to ‘last the night’ I know sounds awful. From what he’s told me he ‘sniffs it’ only, so no contact with Gums or Teeth directly…

When we kissed, there were tongues/ it was a full on snog (whatever you want to call it). I definitely got saliva… (sorry!).

I don’t know if this is relevant but before we kissed, he was licking the inside of his mouth which is one of the sure signs of someone who has just taken Cocaine?

Basically, the next morning, I woke up with one of the biggest handovers of my life… even though all I had to drink was 3 Strongbow ciders? I do have a high alcohol tolerance so I knew I would be fine on these. We were at the pub so maybe they are stronger measures, I don’t know? I literally couldn’t lift my head off the pillow/ was sick countless times and felt awful for the next day.

I have never taken the drug before so clearly, it’s not something my body could have handled.

I am wondering if it was possible to contract traces of the Cocaine from him when we kissed? Has anyone ever heard of this before?

Appreciate any responses…. X

I really don't think you would have got any effect from kissing someone who occasionally snorts coke. Seriously, it doesn't work like that and it's really not that strong. And a coke comedown is not really like an alcohol hangover in any case.

3 strongbow ciders is a lot, i would expect a bad hangover from that.

Very unlikely to be the coke

TigerDroveAgain · 24/08/2019 00:24
Hmm
Trees2905 · 24/08/2019 00:25

It’s not the coke.

Herefortheduration · 24/08/2019 00:27

Definitely not the Coke. I'd look at what else it could be, try another 3 strongbows this weekend, lol

Mamaty · 24/08/2019 00:29

Maybe he uses drugs but also spiked your drink ?

Sorry to be so negative

RavenLG · 24/08/2019 00:35

3 strongbows isn’t a lot of alcohol but it’s jam packed with sulphates which give me stinking headaches, could be that?

LemonPrism · 24/08/2019 00:37

Coke doesn't give you a hangover

LemonPrism · 24/08/2019 00:37

Especially not the traces you would get from kissing

Aaarrgghhh · 24/08/2019 00:53

I’m with others, I don’t think you have any effects from a drug he may have snorted. I can’t say why you have a hangover if normally you wouldn’t.

AMAM8916 · 11/09/2019 22:28

It is quite likely that you would have gotten particles of the cocaine in your system by kissing him.

If he snorted it, some of it would have gotten stuck in his nose then dropped down into his mouth then into yours when you kissed him.

If he rubbed his gums with it, again, particles would have been left over and gotten into your mouth.

However, swallowing cocaine doesn't give much effects. Once it hit your kidneys, it would have made them work a little harder and this may be why you felt ill but it wouldn't quite be enough to make you high or have a proper come down.

I'm a big wimp and have never touched drugs so this would scare me!

I am on sobriety court probation and have to test 15 times a month. Cocaine was never my drug of choice and twice now I have tested positive for cocaine and sent to jail after kissing someone who was using that day. I never felt the effects of it tho but it was definitely in my system.

HollowTalk · 25/01/2022 13:38

Can you remember everything that happened that night?

Hybi9 · 06/02/2022 15:16

Not going to lie but i came to the internet for the same reason, the only difference with your case is that i only had one shot to drink the whole night. You do get a numbing feeling and like a weird taste on the mouth. But other than that i woke up the next day having the weird craving for it, which i found weird. I felt all over the place as well. So it might actually be something that affects us if you have any bit of contact with it

MrsColinRobinson · 06/02/2022 15:27

There is no way you are experiencing any second hand effects from kissing someone who snorted cocaine. Absolutely none.

There is also some nonsense written on this thread.

Hybi9 · 06/02/2022 15:47

Honestly, snorted no. But the person i did kiss tongue had licked the small pouch she had it saved.

TinyDiny · 22/06/2023 11:31

I think it definitely is possible. Only minutes after kissing someone who was on coke my lip swelled which I later found out is an allergic reaction. I've been crazily tired like a hangover and horrible sweats. I've seen come downs before and I know I'm experiencing a small type of one. I've also had random heart palpitations to suddenly heart rate dipping. When coke is put in the mouth ots more likely to be transferred through kissing, but I think there is a possibility from snorting too because they get what's known as 'back drop' through the nasal system to the throat/mouth. This is why they constantly are sniffing. If anyone finds themselves experiencing this look after your body, detox and consume alot of water and fruits. If you get an allergic reaction go to a&e !

Yeahyeahno · 09/07/2023 00:22

@TinyDiny this thread is years old you loon

But other than that i woke up the next day having the weird craving for it, which i found weird

do you actually think cocaine is addictive as in you do it once and you wake up with cravings?

You’re all bloody loons
