What the hell did you eat? Have you ever came close to a disturbing smell lingering out of your date’s mouth? Was your passionate kiss delayed or did you continue to embrace upon a journey of no return? Did you think it could never be that bad, but realized the aftertaste left you sick? My lips were always sealed, escaping from another unforgettable love story, but we know William Shakespeare’s Juliet was unbelievably in love with Romeo that she kissed poison off the lips of her dead man’s corpse. Although the dagger was more potent in this situation, what if you came close to toxic lips that Britney Spears seems to enjoy? Those lips gave her a ride and a “poison paradise”. I highly doubt bad breath kisses will cause an addiction. If they do, please send me or yourself to Desperate Kissing Anonymous.
If you chose taste in my senses challenge, the problem will still linger throughout the evening. The problem will be entirely different from the smell of burnt cookies in a lover’s kitchen with the Lover’s Christmas List. Maybe you woke up to this problem after engaging in no strings attached snuggling? What if you engaged in hot passionate sensualist foreplay? What do you do in these situations without hurting your date or partner? I will explain my perspective and experiences on this, and hopefully you can understand my motives. After you read this blog post, I hope the holiday season can still bring you intimate kisses under the mistletoe without leaving an aftertaste of obligation.
One of his hands finds a spot on the side of her face, the other sends the fingers out to roam aimlessly through her hair. A seductive exchange of eyes and grins entices the couple to embrace their lips. A delicate forehead kiss starts the fun, cheeks are anxiously awaiting for their turn. The nose awaits its turn too and Eskimo kisses are always fun to do. The perfect transition is down to their lips, but hindered confidence pushes aside this intimate idea. The pores of his masculine face shed tears of garlic from the romantic candlelit Italian dinner an hour ago. The feeling of dishonesty, betrayal and obligation may leave them thinking, “What’s next? Maybe we should have bought the Tiramisu for dessert instead.”
You saved each other for dessert? Yeah, I would do the same. I would never have to worry about gaining calories, rather enjoyably shedding them off. Now, what happens next? Do you change the topic and ask the waiter to bring out the dessert menu? Do you go back home and face the awkward blow of Italy’s most potent dish in the restaurant? Regardless if you chose the first option to sweeten up their lips, maybe the smell of Tiramisu and garlic will really throw you over the edge. Garlic cappuccino, anyone? Mama mia! The two love birds will eventually have to leave, unless you are staying the night. Be sure to brush your teeth before hitting the sack. The departure will be an exchange of prolonged hugs and good-bye’s. Possibly his wandering hands fill your back pockets and your noses occupy with each other awaiting for the signal to shift further down. To exchange a goodnight kiss or not to exchange a goodnight kiss – that is the question I will answer. I will give you some suggestions on how to end a night out with a perfect alternative of battling your partner’s bad breath. If you have any other suggestions, please feel free to send them in the comments below.
Location, location, location!
Yes, we are marketing our lips as temporary hotel stays. We want the best location for the most passionate embrace. What if the location was ideal for a quickie before stepping into the door where your parents lurk around for your arrival? Location is essentially important for any public display of affection. I will briefly go over the most commonly used places for a good-night kiss. Then, we can decide what to do after that destination is discovered. If you have a special place where you enjoy the lips of your partner or casual dates, let me know under the comment section below.
The Restaurant
Well, it has to start somewhere! I am trying to convey the message here that it is perfectly fine to kiss someone at a restaurant! However, it is not fine when they have bad breath. How do we avoid being intimate with a lingering enemy taking over your attractive date’s lips? We let them win, but we play back harder. It is perfectly fine if you never kissed on the first date, most people feel the same way. What if you went out for a night with your girlfriend/boyfriend or spouse? I am sure they will love these alternative approaches to restaurant etiquette. I will explain three of my favorite alternatives to being playfully passionate and assertive.
The Restaurant: Footsie
Ah, yes, a very discreet way of expressing your playful submissive side without exchanging lips. Try it sometime! This is not necessarily limited to the restaurant setting. You can also do this at home at the kitchen table, on the couch or in bed.
Communication is essentially important, especially non-verbal communication. If your partner is receptive, this is a win-win. If they are too oblivious or uncomfortable, at least you tried. In the bedroom, toes can be used like fingers. Be soft, gentle and playfully outgoing. Practice and find a perfect technique that you are comfortable doing outside the bedroom. Always remember to maintain restaurant etiquette. Make sure you showered before your socks slip off, and look around to see if anyone would notice. In advanced, request for a booth, unless you are an exhibitionist for public attention.
The Restaurant: Hold Hands
Can it really be that simple? Yes! You can do this anywhere you want and most people will actually approve. You might make other couples jealous. Do this before and after your meals, or even during your meal! Caress their fingers, massage their wrists. I am not asking for much here. This is casual, but very effective. Think of this as an under the counter addiction. Communicate them with words and actions. Talk is extremely cheap, and this speaks everything you could never explain. If you are a professional hand holder, you may sway them to forget about the kiss or possibly entice it. Whether or not they understand that you declined the kiss, they will be more than happy to hold your hand until the check comes.
The Restaurant: Breath check, please?
Let’s face it – you are not confident enough to kiss them in public, especially with a lingering Italian garlic monster. That is completely fine. The dinner towelette is an idealistic suggestion thrown on the table. Ask for two mints, and head out the door. Maybe the mint and the fresh air will help the problem by the time you arrive home. Next time, go out for ice cream or hot chocolate at a local diner after a movie date. Keep the garlic possibilities aside.
The Bedroom: Good Mourning!
Rise and shi .. SHIT! Morning breath is not a fun battle every morning. I have no problem with it, but I did experience a no strings attached snuggle with someone who did. They thought it was extremely bad, however my personal rating was below the worst one I have ever experienced. Although a “good mourning” is an oxymoron, nobody wants to mourn over any morning unless it’s Monday!
The Bedroom: Foreplay? No, more like foul play!
The romantic dinner at the Italian restaurant was priceless, even if you skipped satisfying your sweet tooth for dessert. You are both sprawled out in bed, looking up at the ceiling, and wondering, “What’s next?” Do you tuck each other in for bed or take up on the rain check for dessert now? Did the breath mint help resolve the problem or did it make it any worse than before? Regardless whether you woke up to this morning surprise or brought it home with you as an Italian dinner souvenir, you have to learn how to work around it.
The Bedroom: Embracing the Sensualist Approach
Learn how to seduce them without kissing them right away. I cannot emphasize this enough. Everyone seems to pucker up without hesitation. Learn how to balance out the playful and submissive side. First, check out my other article on The Art of Seduction; Revealing the Sensualist Perspective. Take some mental notes, and come back. It will save me a lot of time rewriting those ideas. The core message that I want you take from that article is how to avoid kissing their lips right away, and how you can do this in a sexy, confident manner.
The Movie Theater
Aw, a romantic Italian dinner and a movie? Wait, we all know you aren’t really watching this movie! Could have fooled me! Do chick flicks make you think, “I could kiss better than that! Watch!” Well, hopefully garlic glazed popcorn isn’t served in this theater! Does it still smell or maybe the bad breath was before the movie date? Do you feel obligated to look as cute as this couple on the left? You might want to try that pose, but it might do more harm than teasing them instead. Try these alternative approaches during the boring scenes!
The Movie Theater: Hold Hands
I’m sorry but this is when I repeat myself from earlier:
Can it really be that simple? Yes! You can do this anywhere you want and most people will actually approve. You might make other couples jealous.
No, honestly, you paid good money for those seats! Enjoy the movie, even if you end up looking anticipated to make your moves. Now, one last time I repeat why you should embrace those fingers together:
Caress their fingers, massage their wrists. I am not asking for much here. This is casual, but very effective.
Honestly, let those hands wander aimlessly around. Guys, massage her arms. Girls, play with his arm hairs. If you really want the exhibitionist way of doing things, sit in the back with the wall behind you. As long as it is consensual fun, enjoy yourselves. It is extremely difficult when you try your best not to kiss them, but kiss them somewhere else. Try for their neck! As long as you set your morals straight, you will never have to worry about traumatizing a little boy’s movie theater experience.
Home Sweet Home
Whether you had a romantic Italian dinner, a movie, or possibly both, the date was a success. Now, it is time to leave your own ways until the next time your eyes meet once again. If you’re married or living with them, just follow the bedroom section. Now, do you exchange your kisses here at the front door, or do you embrace the hugs? Are your parents watching outside the windows or your siblings are running outside to make front row seats in the nearby bushes? Just remember the article I suggested earlier. It might be too explicit for you, but the core message is communication. Understand what their body language suggests and learn how to work around it. Does it look like they want to kiss you? Maybe they need more time to re-evaluate the date? Maybe they already know they have bad breath from a self-check in the restaurant or movie theater bathroom? Learn how to playfully change the mood about kissing them. An easier way to remember this is to take the ‘u’ in “fun” and turn it the other way around to make it a ‘c’. Now, you have “FCN“ which stands for, “Forehead, Cheek, and Nose.” Give them forehead kisses, two cheek kisses, and then some Eskimo kisses. Unless the breath is that bad, stay away from the Eskimo kisses for a while. Never let the bad breath garlic monsters hinder your romantic experiences!
Have you ever experienced bad breath on a date? How did you work things out? Do you have any suggestions? Leave the comments below!
You are most likely a hopeless romantic following my blog for an instant emotional and intellectual connection within yourself. My recent blog posts may have helped you release your daily stress from work, school or taking care of children. Possibly, you could have all three of those emotional burdens hindering some time alone for yourself. You may argue that you do manage your time wisely to schedule personal time alone from reality, however it is only limited to meals, showers and sleep. It is unfortunate that my presence is absent to fulfill your innermost desire for physical touch and the embrace of two bodies with legs intertwined by engaging in no strings attached snuggling. There is a guarantee that you can find someone else who will make you completely comfortable with that taboo concept of snuggling with strangers. You may decline to take part in the latest trend to market your snuggling skills as a professional cuddler, like the woman in New York who owns 
w, intimacy is a different path to understand. If you have snuggled with your best friend for a while, you cannot say that you have no intimacy within that relationship. Intimacy requires a closer relationship with the person by effectively understanding them better through warmth and affection. As an experienced person with no strings attached snuggling, I have a tendency to show warmth and affection regardless if I barely know them. I do it under the consensual conditions that we are both relaxed, comfortable and willing to exchange little perks of affection to help relieve stress and entice the release of hormones throughout the body, like serotonin. The feeling of physical and emotional compatibility will generally offer more affection to those who fit my qualifications. If I go out of my way to become more affectionate, understand that I have feelings for you. This is only common when I have a strong attraction for you earlier in stages of our relationship, or a gradual acceptance over a few months of spending time together. Everyone has different perceptions on intimacy, however it is entirely up to them to talk about what they can and will not accept when you snuggle together. Discuss this with them and find out all the restrictions. Maybe they will allow forehead kisses, Eskimo kisses, cheek kisses, butterfly kisses, and chin kisses. Communication cannot be emphasized enough – just talk to them.
snuggling with Jacqueline to discuss these same policies and make sure the clients are comfortable in pursuing your intentions for no strings attached snuggling. She does reassure you that “although sexual activity is not permitted,” she mentions that arousal is “perfectly normal and should not make anyone feel uncomfortable.” The exchange of communication is also mentioned, and should only be up your personal preference whether you wish to talk during your session or not. Yes, everyone has their own personal preferences for everything they do, especially when they subject themselves to something physically and emotionally mutual. However, we must control ourselves with platonic intentions, unless you wish to pursue the sensual intentions mentioned earlier. I would recommend it if you are completely aware of the situation and how you both will move on from this experience without being emotionally hurt. Discuss the circumstances and the “what-if” scenarios. If you knew that you would crave more of their sensual touch after that night, leaving you left with unrequited love or the lack of a mutual exchange, you will definitely feel left out. Be extra careful with your feelings on this one. I will also emphasize that you should never do something or say something that you know will cause a significant impact on their emotions and feelings. This is not a moment to lead anyone on. That is the least of their concerns. Although it might sound ideal to just embrace sleeping with someone with no other intentions, people will seek more options to explore. Discuss this with either the person you barely know or your lover for that cuddle session. Your boyfriend or girlfriend may take an advantage, but that does not necessarily mean it is right. Let them know. This also goes with marital concerns. Please understand the controversial topic of marital rape. It is a matter of self-control and being assertive. Lay out the barriers, respect each other’s requests, and do not attempt to alter any decisions. If you have animals, why would you decline their offers? We all know you are comfortable about this one! Just take it and appreciate it! Your bundle of fur will hold a grudge if you ignore them. I suppose that also goes to everyone else.
No, really, this is an extremely bright idea! Close your eyes, feel the embrace, lips touch and we’re face to face. Put your arms around my waist, the holiday spirit has much more to taste. Eventually, you’ll decorate something together. Whether you have a Charlie Brown tree, a real spruce, or an artificial – have fun before tackling the tree with lights. If you’re celebrating your first Christmas together, this one is recommended! Take your time and be extra careful not to break any of the lights. Release your wild side, but control yourself at the same time! Explore outside the living room! Bring these lights into the bedroom and let loose. If you are stuck with someone who cannot bring themselves down to this level of being intimately playful, lure their inner teen out to play. It’s in there! Be creative and everything will go perfectly fine.
Are you from New England? Alaska? Somewhere cold? Do you have enough snow for snow angels? If you said yes, great. If not, consider sand angels. Making snow angels solo can be very difficult. There are no extra hands for support to pull you up to make a perfect snow angel. When you have someone, maybe the perfection isn’t all about the angel itself, but it is simply in the kiss. A passionate kiss in the snow might allow your mind to drift off before realizing that you are losing body heat. Well, it was definitely worth the hypothermia! Go after that vulnerably exposed neck for love bites. When you two are caught up in the moment, you might lose track of the time. Don’t stay out too long, frostbites are not fun at all. Would you rather stay inside away from the cold? Try using thermal sleeping bags that can undergo the cold pressures and obligations of staying outside for your loved one and maintaining your warmth. Do you have a few blankets lying around the house? Bring your comforter outside instead! There are so many fun alternatives to embrace the first snow fall of the year. Take a moment out of your busy day, and relax in the innocently white snow.
Are you feeling Jack Frost’s winter blow across your face? Let’s go inside for more intimate ways to spend quality time together. One of the first passionately creative ways to have fun this year would involve heating up the kitchen. You are not a lover unless you know how to use your kitchen counters the right way. If you aren’t confident enough to bake homemade cookies, buy the slice and bake. It is completely fine, but the fun will only be limited to simplistic measures. Now, buy the ingredients and take off those clothes! You should leave your bra, panties, and boxers on to create a sexually appealing atmosphere. It may entice something new or spark up your love life by rekindling old flames. If you make your own holiday cookies, you can lick the excess mess off each other later!
A personal recommendation would be gingerbread stripper cookies! Check those guys out above this paragraph! One dollar at a time, folks! If you are way too enthusiastic about being intimate with each other in the kitchen, pushing the baking aside, grab yourselves two cans of whipped cream! Just imagine whipped cream kisses! Maybe spray some along the side of your desirable neck awaiting for a tongue’s embrace as a sweet sensational moment. Try other places as well! I heard the movie, “Varsity Blues” enticed a trending whipped cream bikini idea! Why not try that out? Maybe you prefer edible underwear or lingerie? Look, as long as you both understand that the quality over the quantity matters the most. Make the holidays an excuse to explore each other’s passionate sides better. Invest some time thinking about creative ways to make sensual foreplay in the kitchen, bedroom or living room with edible alternatives. If you haven’t discussed allergies, now is a great time! Personally, I don’t have any. Feel free to express yourself with me in any way possible. Well, now that you are a hot mess, maybe it is time to take a cold shower?
Let those hands wander, let them run along their neck. Watch out – it might lead into something they hope to expect. Give them a stare, give them a smile – move further down and stay for a while. They will lean their neck over to feel the moment of burning desire. Take an advantage of their vulnerably exposed neck and don’t ever retire. Soft gentle blows across will do the trick, while you run your fingers through their hair and slightly tug quick. Wherever you two may be for the night, enjoy it.
