Hello,

I have been struggling mentally and emotionally lately, due to my boyfriend not enjoying kissing. I really enjoy kissing, and his negative emotions towards kissing is a negative bounce of feelings onto me that he does not enjoy it with me. He tries so hard when he kisses me and I appreciate his efforts, but I don't 'feel it' because I know he doesn't enjoy it, even though he is trying for me. It is horrible to say this, but it feels as though its fake. He is so inspiring and a humble, adventurous person, and I love him dearly. This is a big struggle for me because its my way of connecting, and he loves cuddling which is his way of connecting... among other activities... please help me, he is pretty well my best friend. I can behave how ever I want, do what I want and we feed off each other, but this is a hurdle for me.. .

If it bothers your that much then leave, there are plenty of guys out there who will kiss you until your lips dry up, or you can stay and get over it.

I wouldn't jump out of bed and say 'leave'; sounds like the two of them have a great bond, not often accomplished in relationships. You two have other ways of sharing intimate moments. Practice makes perfect, or just put up with it ;)

I agree, I'm just proving a point! Ahah. I know she wouldn't leave, I was emphasizing the fact she needs to get over it. Lol.

Haha... C0bra_M3nace you have quite a straight forward black and white answer haha. Not saying it's a bad thing but id like to state that it doesn't bother me enough to leave him. I would have to be pretty selfish if I left him because he didn't like kissing but I was happy with the other sectors of our relationship. Haha. I would be a pretty sad person if I left him. Haha.

I was hoping some people would have some some suggestions on how I could help him enjoy it a bit more.

And yes tickle... practice makes perfect ;) ill definitely take that on board :P

Something that will help him enjoy it like whipped cream or like dorkey things to do to help him think... "oh this is fun and its making me laugh doing this" so he gets the happy butterfly feelings that I love so much about kissing... something silly and gooberish... any suggestions? :)

That's really something for you both to chat about. I'm not sure of the extent of his "dislike" for kissing, you're really the only one able to find out how he truly feels about it, and go from there.
