i hate kissing

basically im 18 and kissed a few guys but i really dont like it!

on a few occasions theres been guys tht i like who hav tried to kiss me and i just make lamo excuses not to! i feel awful bout this cos i act like these guys too! more recently whenever i see a guy is interested i get worried and stay out of the way just in case...

i know this sounds really pathetic but its doin my head in and i dont know whats up with me! i just think why not? what the hell? but somehow i still end up heading to the door - at this rate im gonna end up avoiding people and relationships bcos of this. arghhhhh !!

My mum knows a woman who doesn't kiss, she says she tried it when she was 12 and doesn't like it, so she just misses it out.
Maybe you not kissing the right guys, everyones kiss is different. What about it don't you like?

I think the problem is those guys do not know how to kiss and make you enjoy it or like it. :biggrin: :biggrin:

I assure im better than them. Let me try :biggrin: :p: Let me show you a wonderful kiss.

Joking.

ANYWAY, if you do not like it, just refuse.

ive been told im a very good kisser :biggrin:

ive kissed girls who didnt like kissing, but realised the guys they had been with didnt know the art of kissing :wink:

its probably something you'll get used to or start to like, or maybe not, if you feel you cant just hug, but i know a lot of guys will not want to just "hug" but want some lip locking action too! :p:

some people dont like kissing, some of my friends prefere small pecks etc.
personally ive always found a meaningful, passionate kiss i like, a random who are you kiss is just meh
yeah if you really like the guy and you have real feelings for him then i'm sure you'l love the kiss. You probably want more after that :biggrin:!! kissing a guy who your dont fancy "that" much isn't great at all. I'm speaking from my expereince.

I think you've probably just not had much chemistry with the people you've kissed or they haven't been very good kissers. I didn't think I liked kissing until I kissed someone with good technique and I then realised I simply disliked bad kissing. Don't write it off, if you meet someone you like, see how it goes. :smile:

Totally true. Listen to this girl, and don't give up on it yet! Though you might do if you keep kissing guys that fall into either of these categories.

Like the others, I reckon you've just been kissing the wrong guys. I hated my first couple of kisses - one felt like having a slug in my mouth, and the other was a complete washing machine case...ugh. When you find the right person though...mmmm...:biggrin:

Or, and this may seem completely impossible to you, but I'm just putting it out there as an idea, have you considered that it's the guys that are the problem? A friend of mine didn't realise she was a lesbian until she kissed another girl in spin the bottle, having previously not really enjoyed kissing at all. I'm not suggesting anything, but it is a possibility.

u know your mouth is the dirtiest place on your body. the warmth an moisture is heaven for germs!
I don't like kissing either. Everything else is great, kissing just doesn't do anything for me at all. I'm so fed up of people patronising me and saying I haven't met the right guy yet. Why can they not just accept that I don't like it? *sigh*

I find kissing boring, because I've never actually gotten off with a guy through attraction, it's always been in clubs, parties, random places.
I don't worry about it though, because I know that it will be fine once I find someone who I like.
Have you genuinely liked the people you're kissing? Mostly it is boring and pointless unless you really, really like the person you're kissing. Can be exciting at first and after that the kind of kisses you're looking for are the "Bedroom! NOW!" variety. Can't beat those, plus they're an excellent part of foreplay.

Just experiment with different kinds of kissing. I mostly hate using tongues, unless it's just a tiny, teasing amount... then it's hawt.

Yeah, I've genuinely liked the person I'm kissing most of the time. I just simply do not like it. I find it strange that people can't seem to understand that. People would mostly understand if I said I didn't like S&M or even just giving blowjobs, but for some reason not enjoying kissing is nearly impossible to understand. Like I said, everything else is great, I like all that, but just kissing doesn't do it for me.

Well, not kissing on the mouth, at least.
Each to their own, I just think that kissing is a form of affection meant only for people you're really into and that in itself makes it a nice thing.

I don't know what you expect to gain from kissing though? Just the feeling of closeness and anticipation of what it may lead to...

This is exactly the type of moron I was referring to in my above post. Is it not enough that I just don't enjoy it, much like I don't enjoy skiing or abseiling? Why does me not enjoying something suddenly mean that either myself or the other person is doing it wrong?
