I am an aficionado of the kiss. No other act is so simple and so intimate. The light suction, the flick of the lip, the playful nibble, the deep advance and retreat of the tongue—a good kiss is like jazz, an improvisation of melodies, flirtatious staccatos, and passionate brassy crescendos. A good kiss is a rapport enacted physically, like sex, but more erotic.
Many women don’t realize this. I’ve been surprised at how many treat kissing like it really is “first base,” just a step towards something better. And when I meet such women, I face a dilemma, like being a music lover who discovers that a new friend has bad taste. Do you break it off, or do you educate? And if you educate, how do you give lessons without giving offense? Read more ...

You know you’re a good kisser when they melt right in your arms.

I once dated a guy who was such a good kisser that all I needed to do was look at his lips and my knees gave out. Oh yeah.

Ah, kissing. When it’s bad, it’s pretty horrific. But when it’s good… when it’s really really good? It’s better than most sex. If I could either have sex whenever I wanted but almost never have a great kiss, or have a great make-out session whenever I wanted but almost never have sex, I’d choose the latter, no doubt.
I’ve been with maybe three excellent kissers in my life, and those moments with them were transcendent. I think kissing is an art and, as the article implies, an act of poetry and passion. Once I met someone who could climax simply while kissing. Now she was someone who made me feel very good about my technique.

The second guy I kissed was an amazing kisser, and so I asked him to teach me be better. And now I think I am much better, and many guys have told me I am a great kisser. It really does make a huge difference.
