Do you think that kiss on the forehead is overrated?

[Anonymous]

I keep reading that it shows more than a kiss on the cheek or lips. What do you think?

[bubbles328]

I heard a kiss on the forehead means love

My experiences with this: a guy I was sleeping with told me he knew I cared a lot about him cos I kissed him on the forehead a lot

Another guy I was sleeping with who had commitment issues sighed when I kissed him on the head looked like he was about to say something then shut up. It definitely provoked a reaction from him.
I personally see nothing in it but I think to guys it means different

[AnnaFight]

In my opinion a kiss on the forehead doesn't show "attractivness" and such like a kiss on the mouth or cheek does.

For me and my guy, we do that as a cute, playful kisd to easily say I love you in a like "cute inocent way" I guess.

In my opinion.. kiss on the forhead is a cute way of saying "I love you" 😊😍

[shelbyr1721]

I’ve never been kissed on the forehead myself by a guy I have feelings for, so I can’t say from experience, but the idea of it feels overrated to me. Then again, that could just be because forehead kisses remind me of a creep from my old church

[wolecollner]

It's not overrated trust me. One day it will happen and you understand. To me it's a great way to show my girlfriend that I am there for her and protecting her, especially because I'm taller than her. I know she feels more safe and comfortable after I do that

[StarieNight]

Bcause of the fact that I am not a romantic person and since I have haphephobia, all kisses are overrated to me... Whether it's a peck on the cheek and the forehead... Or if there is tongue action going on!

[BigBearj]

Depends, if the guy does it before your both commited in a relationship. he's just trying to get in your pants. But there are some guys that do it too soon that mean it. Its hard to tell. But if you can tell the players from the genuine guys you will find the one that will kiss you right

[Asker]

Thank you. You gave me suspicions but that's good. How do I know the difference? Maybe he's just nice and not trying to get in my pants

[BigBearj]

The main difference between a good guy and a player. Is the player constantly hints at sexual contact. The genuine man will want to touch you but in a way where he wants to just be with you and around you. Without begging for sex and physical contact

[Asker]

I understand. This guy kinda does both, hints at sexual contact but also is nice and kind

[Asker]

You helped, thanks

[BigBearj]

He kinda sounds like a player

[coachTanthony]

Its what I do to my brothers dog when he comes running at me lol

[jackster95]

I don't think it's overrated, I think it is used differently, less often than a normal kiss.
A kiss on the lips, for me, represents romance, passion, fire.

A kiss on the forehead represents love, pure and not shrouded in lust. It says something different, and I love that.

Both are important, it's a balance

[Leo3572]

It shows that the person who get kissed is important to the person who kisses. It's a sign of respect and sympathy also it marks the kissed person as someone who get protection from the other person. It has a deep meaning. A kiss on the cheek is something to say hello to family and maybe also friends when you come from the south. A simple kiss on the lips is just a quick sign of casual love.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

To me, a kiss on the forehead is a serious expression of caring and fondness. It's definitely not overrated.

[Ayer93]

Definitely overrated and people just follow trends. If most guys hear that forehead kisses are something that girls like, they would do that regardless of what it meant. Not many people are truly genuine in the world.

[JohnFrost]

Yeah kiss on forehead has more emotional value then a kiss on the cheek. I only kiss people on the forehead that I truly care for and want to protect/calm/help. Kiss on the cheek I do with anyone that leans in for it.

I think kiss on the lips is something you o my do with your SO. And depending on the time of the kiss is in similar ballpark. But with different meaning. Kiss on the mouth is more sensual and kiss on the head is more caring and protective.

[MadeInAmerica]

I don't know if it is or not. I know my very first kiss from my wife when was just in hanging out stage was on the forehead. It was special. It one of those I care or like you a ton type of kiss, and not sexual.

[trhoades259]

It's just a different kind of kiss, one that shows more gently, loving affection. It's just... Different. But not overrated, the amount it can make a girl blush is priceless.

[MickyMouse1231]

I love getting forehead kisses! Its something that's sweet and gentle and makes me feel loved. It's also a little easier for my boyfriend sometimes because he's quite taller than I am lol

[compelledtoo]

It's , in my opinion, not that it's so much more , as so much different. I mean a kiss on the cheek or loops says " i wanna touch you" or "you make me horny " or anything you want it to mean ! But a kiss on the forehead means I love you , thank you for what you did for me, you mean the world to me. I'll be there for you. one love , one life , one kiss.

[wolecollner]

I think when I miss my girlfriend on the forehead she feels safe. I do when I hug her sometimes (I'm 6 foot 2, she is 5 foot 4) or when she is snuggling up on me during movie night. It is just my way of saying I'm here and I've got you

[BloodyM615]

I don't find it overrated, if it were like parents or friends then I wouldn't care but on those in a relationship, I'd always take a kiss on the forehead as a sign that the guy truly does mean that the relationship is serious between us, it might not sound realistic to others but for me I have experienced it a lot more than on the cheek or lips

[brendon76]

I agree it think there is more in a kiss to the forehead than on the cheeks or lips. It has a sort of protective, want to take care of type feeling to it.

[Trisha13]

I love forehead kisses! But my new favorite is when I've turned over to go to bed and my boyfriend leans in and kisses the back of my shoulder. So sexy and sensual. And genuine

[pure7]

I do love kisses on my forehead. They feel special since i didn't get them as often as a kiss on my lips or cheeks. Also makes me feel cute and as if im taken care of. Somewhat a safe feeling ♡

[happyhippo]

I really love it when my boyfriend kisses me on the forehead. It's just so cute and so nice. Maybe it actually shows more than one on the lips or the cheek. It somehow is more pure than the other two.. dunno

[morimorishoujo]

I agree, this type of kiss shows minimum amount of lust.

[markscott]

To me, a kiss on the forehead is less than a kiss on the cheek. A kiss on the forehead is simply affection, that could just as easily be affection for a small child.

[Dloper]

I think its 2 sided. First I think it is very enduring and loving. It shows a deeper connection.
Second I think it's the worst thing to use in a way of saying good by due to the first interpretation i have. Kinda defeats the deeper connection when your saying this is it..

[PasticheGrizzly]

My friends moms give me a kiss on the forehead or cheek when greeting me or saying bye. It really depends on who it’s from. But in my case it’s -you’re like a daughter to me and I treat you as such-

[Rebecca_Tonkin]

It's not overrated. I think that it's cute and an obvious sign of affection. Other types of kisses are signs of affection as wel but I feel like one on th forehead is more precious. Don't ask me why haha

[daynamariex]

It just feels like a very nurturing thing to do. Like the person doing it is prepared to bring you soup when you're poorly, and that they genuinely love and care about you.

[sarisadi1]

Yes! Kiss on the forehead means a lot. When I kiss my gfs forehead it just gives both of us instant peace and love. It's weird but I love it and she loves it!

[Anonymous]

My guy friend kissed me on the forehead and I know he cares for me.
A guy I was dating kissed me on the forehead after sex for the first time, I wasn’t so sure what he meant by that one, protectiveness maybe? Who knows.

[Opinion Owner]

Could have been saying we’re better off as friends for all I know.

[userblame]

I think it can be nice to get one sometimes. But it's not like i would rather have a kiss on the forehead for the rest of the relationship

[arealgirl100]

Romantically it is "I will protect you." I think it's an implicit ILY even if the bestower does not yet know the depth of their feelings.

[riverplate7]

I've never gotten one. been kissed on the hand a few times and its super sweet and tender but I don't know about the forehead kiss

[oftheHowl]

It's not better or worse, just for different context and feeling. It's also gonna be more common for couples where the guy is much taller.

[TrinityD]

I think it depends on individual how they view it as. If that guy thinks that is just what girls like and just do it casually we would have felt the difference. The amount of emotion and feeling that it gives off will be different.

[BrianMerritt]

No, I've never heard of that. I always figured a kiss on the forehead was for people you shouldn't kiss on the lips.
If shs was sick I'd kiss on the forehead.

[DollFace0612]

Depends on the situation. It's different for everyone.

[freddysch]

I just think it's a beautiful way of showing your love to someone and how much you care for them. Sexually or non sexually.

[findingdreamland-1]

Aww no i love them when they kiss on the neck on the forehead 😍😍😍 makes you feel really special.

[Duke07]

No. I will always kiss a woman im with on forehead. Its a action that shows endearment. :)

[Evkaxy]

Any kiss on any part of your body is just a kiss, it's depends on people and the situation to give it a meaning

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Nope i don't think it's overrated , it's form of affection.

[Nik1hil]

nope it is not overrated,
it is perfect for when your partner is sick,

[cjm1016]

Kiss on the forehead is usually down by a parental figure, I would when my lady falls asleep, or when I pull her into a tight hug I would press my lips to her forhead, I also kiss the corner of her eye, and a lot of other places lol

[mdp673]

Depends on the situation but i'd say it's a more endearing way of showing affection.

[SAMI_DABBAB]

It's a sign of non sexual love.
It's underrated if u ask me

[Dre_808]

A kiss on the forehead is for family, or maybe if your S/O is sleep. I've never heard of it meaning more than a kiss on the lips or the cheek even.

[gabebro123]

I think, when your parents used too kiss your forehead, so when your partner gives you a kiss on the forehead, its like them trying to show you how much the care for you. I dont think its overrated.

[ultimega]

Its just being affectionate that ls all - not sure why it would be seen as overated

[Browneye57]

No, it's just something people do as a sign of affection. It's nothing more, nothing less.

[Krimsonkoolaid]

You can't use tongue on the forehead, well you can but it would be weird.

[readywriter]

Its nice and personal but a nice (not sloppy) kiss on the lips should be pretty personal also.

[koulis]

If a boy kiss you on the forehead that means he cares about you more than you think!

[ArronTheSubwayKid]

Its very endearing tbh. Its the kind of shit that'll even make a soft hearted male blush on the inside

[Silwer]

I don't think it's overrated at all! In my opinion it shows more affection if a guy does it then a normal kiss would

[TheDarkWolfSif]

I personally do it to show my contempt and love with someone.

With my girlfriend for the most part. It’s her own personal kiss.

[TomTomTomB]

Depends on the situation... I kiss one night stands on the forehead if it’s during sex, however If it was like a kiss goodbye or randomly I think it means more

[Phirez]

Kissing someone on the forehead is pretty symbolic. It's not something you'll do casually but it helps showing that you really care, that your bond is special.

[redrocket68]

I only do it if Im. really into her I have to feel like I love her

[LegateLanius]

It's something friends or family members do most of the time.

[mrirkre4y4u]

I use it to show love. heartfelt dear enduring nonjudgemental
With no sexual conotations

[asi007]

I think it is the most romantic kiss in that manner. I would like to kiss my partner on her forehead to show how much i love her if i have one... lol

[swastiksy]

No.. infact i like to kiss and get kissed on forehead

[Minahh]

I think it's underrated actually, because I don't think many people give forehead kisses regularly

[twannie]

Nah, a kiss on the lips is much more intimite. I can kiss my best friends on their foreheads without that meaning something

[JTPalmer]

Nope. It's a kiss that doesn't take anything in return.. well, aside from a the scent of the lady I love that drives me a little crazy internally.

[Anonymous]

To me the forehead kiss is the most beautiful kiss of all.

[Kenzo23]

Nope. Time and time again I've heard girls expressed how they love that and it gives them as much as a sense of security.
