| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 2/29/2008 2:07:58 PM | While I am sympathetic to your dilema Cimacutie, I think you have to look at it, in the context of the overall relationship. It's difficult to say how important kissing is, it' a very personal question. And of course, how important it is to you, is the real question here. And obviously you are having some trouble figuring that out, or you wouldn't be here asking. I would suggest that you ask yourself how much you really miss it? Does it affect your ability to feel affectionate & loving towards him? Does it affect your sex life (assuming that you are sleeping together & yes, I know I shouldn't make assumptions, just flailing around in the dark guessing here). If it helps for you to know this, I have been in a relationship with a terrific guy for 2 & 1/2 years now, & he doesn't like kissing much, either. It's been a hell of an adjustment, but compromise is sometimes neccessary, in a relationship.
EDIT> Ok, I just went back & re-read the entire thread. This thread was originally started in early December, so if she hasn't dumped him (or him, her or whatever) it has now been over 6 months. OP, could you give us an update? Have you talked with him about this? Has it improved? Or not? | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/2/2008 12:21:25 AM | If I'm not kissing you, I don't care about you (you = guy I'm dating). If I never saw you again, I really wouldn't notice. Kissing is far more intimate than sex for me, when I tire of relationships you won't notice cause I start turning down sex. You'll notice because my lips will cease to be on yours. So I'd say, yes. But every person has methods unique to them for demonstrating emotional intimacy. You really should ask him. Maybe he's very, very shy? lol | |

Posted: 3/2/2008 1:43:27 AM | Ok i understand that perhaps after many years the kissing may die down, but FOUR MONTHS...Kissing to me is the most intimate thing between a man and woman, as its the lead up from the intensity, which makes lovemaking, making love! He doesn't seem to be a very passionate person, and if you are, then this will bring about problems. I'd feel used if i didn't have a nice kiss, how else do you create passion and chemistry which leads to the ultimate between a man and a woman. Think carefully, and ask him why he doesn't enjoy it.

They have to be a great kisser before I will get intimate with them. The ones that chew off your face ewwwwwwwwwwww, the ones that tonge your entire face double ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. | |

Trust me if you're with a bad kisser, do you let it go any further????? I sure don't. I love to kiss and want someone who can really kiss like no other. | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/2/2008 11:48:28 AM | If you can't get the guy to take lessons from you and you totally miss it, you should move on. I know that a man that can kiss...wow! Part of some amazing foreplay in my opinion! | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/2/2008 4:13:18 PM | | It is to me! That's where it all starts! If you've been dating him for 4 mos. and you always end your night with just a hug....maybe he's gay? What kind of man wouldn't want to kiss a pretty woman good night? You probably need to get a "real" man if you want a real good night kiss! | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/8/2008 10:17:44 AM | Holleee Crap! Are you kidding me? I would absolutely NOT date someone who didn't find kissing to be either important or sexy. Everything begins and ends with a kiss. Intimacy begins with a kiss, you say goodnight or hello with a kiss! A kiss, if done properly, and I know I am probably gonna get bashed for this.... is a long forgotten art! Properly done, should leave you feeling body buzzed, starry eyed and glazed and wanting more. As far as Im concerned, good kissing should be as great as sex itself, anything less, get dressed and get outta my room! And I am guilty of choosing dates based on how well the kiss | |

Posted: 3/9/2008 5:27:38 PM | | Someone once told me, "Kissing is a deal-breaker," and I think it might be true - your description sounds to me like he's not that interested in you - the quality of the kissing says a lot about a relationship and how people are feeling . . . | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/9/2008 5:51:24 PM | I have dated guys like that too. I can't figure it out. I hate it. I need kissing maybe more than sex. I don't trust men that don't like to kiss. Like they are not into the relationship. The one guy like this is a sweet guy. Just not into kissing. Can't figure it out either. | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/9/2008 10:41:41 PM | | For me kissing, cuddling, and hugging are extremely important for me to get aroused. They provide essential closeness that makes sex much, much better. | |

| Is kissing a important part of intimacy??? Posted: 3/10/2008 10:15:37 AM | | Oh my gosh! Kissing is one of THEE most important things in the world to me. I could never date a man who didn't enjoy kissing. It is an extremely important part of intimacy. Sometimes, it's even more important than sex! How can anyone NOT like to kiss? I don't get it! | |
