Kissing isn’t for only when you’re about to get the ‘cookie’, kissing can stand as a sport on its own (if you know what i mean). Nobody every forgets their first kiss and some argue that kissing can be therapeutic. In the past the African culture frowned against kissing in public and they believed kissing should be done only in the bedroom between a man and wife but times have changed and people now engage in a lot of PDA.

Here are 6 awesome and helpful reasons why you should kiss more often

1. IT STRENGTHENS YOUR RELATIONSHIP

I once watched a movie about kissing and one of the actress said “A kiss seals two souls for a moment in time”. I agree, it promotes togetherness and couples who kiss regularly live five years longer than those who don’t (says science research, i didn’t make it up). Another known fact is that couple’s who kiss more have closer bonds, this might be hard to believe but kissing is more emotional than s*x.

2.PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

Like every other task or skill the more you do and practice the better you become. It’s said that we become expert at a task after doing it for 10,000 hours. Your lip-locking technique is no exception. We’re sure this is a practice you’ll enjoy. Who knows, your first kiss might be the reason that guy/girl will want to remain with you because it was so awesome.

3.IT CALMS YOU DOWN AND PROMOTES PLEASURE

Imagine you came back from work all tired and frustrated because your boss has been a d*ck. Then as you enter your wife is all nice, feeds you and gives you a long romantic kiss as desert, wont you agree that the kissing(with other actions) have aided in calming you down? It increases levels of oxytocin otherwise known as the “love hormone” which calms us. Kissing also reduces pain through our saliva which contains a kind of anesthetic and increases pleasure by releasing dopamine.

4.BECAUSE ITS GOOD FOR YOU

Kissing is good for more than your pleasure. It burns calories, builds strong facial muscles and other health benefits. For those of you looking to burn fat in some area’s of your face like your cheeks and chin then you better start kissing more. Its a fun and enjoyable exercise.

5.IT MAKES YOU HAPPY AND BRIGHTENS YOUR MOOD
Happiness is like a kiss – it feels best when you give it to someone else. Kissing improves our mood by increasing endorphins, which are our feel-good hormones. Then again, do i really need to start explaining why kissing makes us feel good.

6. BECAUSE IT’S FUN AND FREE
The fun and free explains it all

Finally, please do yourself a favour and try and brush before you kiss, nobody want’s to kiss someone with mouth odour. I once kissed a girl with mouth odour and I never called her back after the first kiss. In her mind she would think i’m a player but she wont know her mouth odour was what sent me away.
