Do You KISS Your FRIENDS?

Question

Why or why not? What reasons would you?

SuperFunk · Accepted Answer

Of course, why not? We need to break this concept that we've formed from our current society that contact is in anyway harmful or obtrusive in anyway!!! Quite the contrary- it's absolutely essential to our growth individually, our evolution collectively, and our general healing to maintain a better quality of life!! Human beings are social creatures, and that CONTACT or social interaction becomes imperative to our overall survival... This is important to understand because we shouldn't inhibit this mending chemistry and rejuvenating energy nor should we seek to limit it's ability to work through us!!! The world would be a much more daunting environment without a doubt, if we didn't have one another to learn from our shared experiences or if we couldn't find shelter/ safety when we felt that life was overwhelming or overbearing... We are only strengthened by our presence together, never weakened! It's our own dysfunction and misconceptions that change our allies and make them our enemies. 😘

It bothers the fuckin hell out of me that I have to kiss them. I have to kiss even women that I barely know, and if I refuse, it becomes awkward. The society is such a full of bullshit place. Kissing is not supposed to be given away just like that. That's completely fucked up. I can't wait to move to another place that doesn't work like this. Hopefully there are some left.

Nah. My friends and I had a little new year's eve party, got a bit drunk. Okay, some of them got sloppy drunk. Some cried, two of them decided to make out a little. One of my friends just likes to kiss her female friends when she's drunk, I guess. I myself have never felt the need to kiss my friends, sober or drunk. Like that's the last thing on my mind. I'm not someone who kisses people on the cheek either, so I can't think of a single circumstance when I would kiss my friends. Maybe for a picture if someone suggested a cheek kiss as a pose? Or truth or dare.

Sometimes I kiss female friends on the cheek if they initiate first. A couple of times it was a peck on the lips. It wasn’t exactly intentional and I’m straight. It just sorta happened and I went with it 😝 I prefer cheek kisses though

I dont like male friends kissing me on the cheek. It’s too intimate for me and I worry it gives onlookers the idea that we are dating. I prefer hugs from guys friends.

Cynicaldreamer · Answer

No! Not even my platonic guy friends; it's awkward. Not even a peck on the cheek. I consider a kiss romantic rather than something friendly you exchange with a friend. Heck, they barely get hugs from me and even that feels forced to an extent, haha.

Nor do I want to receive a kiss from them, male or female.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

I think Kissing a Friend just shows mutual Love between the two Friends
i don't think of it being weird or abnormal behavior. Some people draw
things out of proportion. Yes if i had a Friend i would kiss them. I believe
people who judge us by calling us Gay or Lesbian need to go get a life :)

Audifan · Answer

I only kiss my closet female friends on the cheek. Most of the time, I don't find it appropriate especially with complete strangers or folks that I know but rarely communicate with. This one friend I have I find we're very compatible with the exception of one tiny issue, she's twice my age. Really puts up quite a roadblock. We love to joke about it a lot since I am in my early 30s and she's approaching 70 in a few years but we both know staying as friends will give us everything we need, without her robbing the crib and me ordering off the senior menu to put it politely.

chadpattan · Answer

It seems universal that women consider kissing "cheating".

I don't, but it is what it is. I've never kissed a female friend, but I've been kissed by plenty, on the cheek. Quite a few I'm fairly certain if I made that move they wouldn't have rejected me, but I respect boundaries.

BlessedDaddy · Answer

Every woman I have ever been with, save one, was and is a good friend. And let's not forget the single mothers.
I enjoy kissing because it's passionate and wet and it turns me on during and not during sex. And no matter how much I kiss in public, it's legal sexual contact. I could go on for days.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

Some of the reasons I kiss and/or hug my friends:  1. Hellos 2. Goodbyes  3. Thank You s 4. Sympathies  5. Good Lucks  6. Missed you so much  7. Passionate FMF/FMFF participations

captain_enterprise · Answer

No never. It’s not appropriate. Maybe some will give a pec on the cheek which I’m not comfortable with.

Ceasar97 · Answer

No, probably because we are not that close; however, it is not as acceptable for men to be that close as it is for women.

Usernamesrdumb · Answer

I've kissed my guy or girl friends on the cheek out of happiness before. But its not a regular occurrence. Mostly i haven't seen you in a while, we accomplished some goal, or they did something extremely great for me. Im a burner, so at burns there are a lot of hugs and sometimes kisses from strangers. Only time I return the action. But thats a different world.

linds34 · Answer

Not usually. A few times with my best friend when we were drinking, basically for attention.

MorticiAddams · Answer

Yep. On the cheeks, head, and, with those that are comfortable with it, on the lips. I think platonic physical affection is very important in touch-starved, puritanical modern society.

likelyOK · Answer

More gay guy friends and some of my close girlfriends and only a few of my st8 male friends that I know won't take it the wrong way, always on the cheek

gagsucs · Answer

COMMODOREII · Answer

In my culture it is customary to kiss your friends. Usually on the cheek in greeting and when you say goodbye. You also hug them.

tslater · Answer

If I ever had Italian friends and it was clear that that was an expression of friendship then sure I would, but as of right now I don't kiss any of my friends lol

SolifeNolife · Answer

No, I kinda view kissing as a pretty intimate thing so it would just make me feel really weird to kiss or be kissed by a friend.

uh_haha · Answer

Yeah me and my best friend kiss all the time but then again we are secretly in love with each other but refuse to have the conversation😌✌

Jjpayne · Answer

I think for girls it's acceptable but for guys not so much unless you belong to the mafia then it's ok :)

ClosetHoe · Answer

No, I'm a closeted bisexual and people already assume I like girls. I'd like to seem as straight as possible until I move out.

Waseem94 · Answer

I think many people who are open with their besties kiss them oftenly. Its very common. It may be different if the bestie is from opposite sex.

pleasestopthis · Answer

In my culture we greet people with a kiss on the cheek so yeah. And sometimes I kiss my bff on her head or forehead... If you meant a steamy kiss on the lips, then no 😵😵

Sagethewiseman · Answer

A loved one is a loved one. You always feel better when you know someone you care about, cares about you. Kiss away

Satu16 · Answer

Yes, once in a while but I only kiss my male friends. In my eyes it's very strange to kiss someone with the same gender if you are not related with each other.

clampfan101 · Answer

It’s weird that two girls kissing can look like just friendship but not with guys. Why is that?

I'd like to know that. Feels weird when my besties do that to me.
