A new study shows that 8 out of 10 couples no longer kiss before going to bed
Is romance dead? It feels that way sometimes, especially when I hear that 8 out of 10 couples no longer kiss before going to sleep, and I mean not even in that perfunctory “Lie back, close your eyes and think of England“ kind of way, either. I’m talking nada, zilch, zero human kissing contact. Ouch. more…

Who doesn’t love to kiss? I do, which is why I’m posting this piece from ZenCollegeLife.com. I learned something new today, too: though the average person spends two weeks of their life playing tonsil hockey, my goal is to go for a month. Really, what in life is better? And don’t say sex, ice cream or chocolate…I beg you. I also learned I will never, ever live in Somalia or Bolivia (which I sort of new already, to be honest) because they don’t kiss at all. Can you even imagine? Do those of you who’ve been complaining that you haven’t had a date in ages should feel at least a little bit better? I also realized I don’t want to live in Florida any time soon…you’ll read why below. Freakin’ weird state has some seriously messed up laws. Just sayin’.

I’m pretty sure you won’t be surprised by this (at all), but the act of kissing under a sprig of mistletoe is one of my very favorite Christmas traditions. Yeah, that’s right. Because who doesn’t love a holiday smooch besides Senor Scrooge? Mistletoe is a reminder as to why Christmas is a holly, jolly time: the holidays are all about love, yo.

I didn’t wake up this morning and think ‘God, I want to be kissed’ (though to be honest, a lip-lock is something I crave most mornings, noons and nights) but the subject of smooching has repeatedly presented itself to me today. I heard Sixpence None the Richer‘s incredibly annoying song, ‘Kiss Me.’ Donna Sozio, author of The Man Whisperer, asked me to describe my idea of the perfect kiss for a book she’s writing. Finally, I read a study published in USA Today stating that the neurotransmitters and hormones stimulated by kissing give us a false sense of being in love; we mistake chemical reaction for emotion. more…
I woke up this morning dazed and confused. This is my typical state before two gigantic cups of coffee but it wasn’t my post-sleep state causing disorientation this time. Nope, I had just awakened to a text from a close male friend who said he’d had a really, really hot sex dream…about me. Weird? Yes. Unusual? Completely. I thought I had imagined it, and went back to bed briefly before bolting upright and thinking, “Holy eff. What does this mean?” So, as one does, I researched. more…

I don’t know about you, but I’m the first person to cringe when I see a couple in the midst of a hot-and-heavy PDA session (that’s public display of affection for you plebes) and the first person to be all about indulging in one (with a boyfriend, of course). It’s a good thing then that my latter self lives in California, a state which happens to be A-OK with PDA, according to a survey by Chemistry.com. But where else can you smooch your other half out in the open, and where should you avoid getting handsy with your man? more…
