Kissing Tips for Your New Year’s Celebration

As holidays go, New Year’s Eve can be more romantic than Valentine’s Day. Sure, it’s just a night of partying, noise-makers and funny hats, with hordes of people gathering ‘round to watch a giant lighted ball fall from the sky, but all that build-up to midnight culminates (if you’re lucky) in the famed New Year’s Eve kiss.

For the attached, the holiday can be a stress-free celebration. No presents required: just food, drink, merriment… and the kiss, as your relationship turns the corner on another year. There’s always at least one couple who gets engaged right in Times Square, right at midnight, and countless others who do so in more private venues. (Any place is more private than Times Square on New Year’s Eve!)

For those without a steady lover, the moment of midnight is also wrought with great significance. Who will you kiss? On the lips or cheek? Public—perhaps in front of a television audience of millions—or private? Will it mean anything?

Whether the kiss is a fleeting moment in time, participants kicked to the curb by morning like last year’s Christmas tree, or the harbinger of something big, the kiss, at least, should be a good one.

And so, because time is a’wastin’ as 2009 approaches, we bring you kissing tips for the New Year.

Don’t forget the mints. After an evening of drinking and hors d’ouvres, you’ll want to freshen up. Miss Sweet has always preferred Altoids, the original mint formula, because they pack such a punch. If your kiss turns into something more after midnight, Altoids add a bonus tingly sensation to oral sex, too.

Go in strong. Nobody likes a wimp. Once you’re sure of your partner’s New Year’s kiss intentions (full and on the lips) don’t hesitate. Firm but gentle is your mantra.

Don’t slobber, please. Yes, this is pretty basic, but there’s nothing worse than a guy (or gal) who drools all over you. If I wanted that, I could have stayed home and made out with a beagle.

Not too dry, either. Hopefully your mouth is still tingly from the champagne, your lips moist and succulent. One of the experts at www.lovetoknow.com recommends licking and pressing your own lips together to moisten, soften and warm them before the big moment. Once you go in deep for a long French kiss, let nature take its course. It’s not called “swapping spit” for nothing, after all.

Kiss her (or him) like you want them. No matter how poor your technique, it’s hard to resist a kiss from someone who puts his entire heart into the action. I’m going to leave you with a quote from Robert Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land, regarding the Martian’s famous kiss, so heartfelt it caused one of the other characters to faint.

“Mike doesn’t have technique…but when Mike kisses you he isn’t doing anything else. You’re his whole universe…and the moment is eternal because he doesn’t have any plans and isn’t going anywhere. Just kissing you.”

Happy New Year’s from Vibrator.com and may your 2009 be filled with love and kisses!
