We've all experienced a bad kiss. Whether the person's breath smelled like red onions or they used way too much tongue, it's an experience you're unlikely to forget.
So how do you prevent yourself from becoming someone else's bad kiss story? Here are a few tips on what to avoid when going in for your next kiss.
Don't lead with your tongue.
A kiss can be magical, but the one thing that is bound to break the magic is the feeling of a squishy, wet tongue being the first thing hitting your lips.
Always lead with your lips at the start of a kiss. Once you get a rhythm, you can incorporate your tongue, but definitely hold off until the time is right.
Don't become a human faucet.
While everyone produces a different amount of saliva, you can control the amount that ends up on your kissing partner's face.
Try not to push too much saliva out of your mouth while kissing and be careful with how wide the motions of your mouth are. If you're getting their chin wet, you've probably gone too far. No one should need a towel for their face after a make-out session.
Don't go over-the-top.
We all get caught up in the heat of the moment, so if you're both on the same page with getting aggressive at the get go, far be it from me to cool you down.
But if you're starting every kiss like a lion going in for the kill without being aware of what your partner wants, you're likely doing it wrong. It's best to start slower and build up to a passionate kiss.
You can always increase the heat later as long as you're both comfortable.
