Why Kissing Is Even Hotter Than You Realized
Today's post is all about what a good kiss can do (other than possibly paving the way for even more exciting activities, of course). Gathered from the far reaches of the internet, here are some kissing benefits you may not have known about (so if you could use an excuse to lock lips with a certain someone, read on!).
*When you give sugar, you burn sugar. Kissing burns calories, maybe even as much as a jog through the park if it's really passionate! This may help kissing couples to slim down.
*'French' kissing exercises facial muscles, which may keep you from getting all saggy, and therefore help to retain a youthful (or youthfuler) appearance.
*Kissing reduces stress and helps your mind to slow down and relax, which is obviously good for your overall mental and physical health. Sort of like meditation, only a lot more fun!
*Kissing promotes a dazzling smile by producing extra saliva that acts as a natural anitseptic and fights bacteria and gum disease.
Has anyone else noticed a theme here? Seems like doing enough kissing could make one genuinely hotter. Hmm, maybe that's the fitness secret of all those trim bodies we're always seeing on romance novels. Well, kissing is certainly a lot more fun than most other forms of exercise, though you'd probably have to do it as often as the heroes and heroines in those same novels for it to have such a dramatic effect. Worth a try, I say! And with that in mind, here's Derek and Kelly's first kiss, from my novella Glazed :
He was leaning across the seat, which brought his gorgeousness within a heart-speeding few inches of her own body. "You've got something here…" He raised a hand to his face, pressing a fingertip to the corner of his mouth.She mirrored him, lifting her own hand, meaning to wipe away whatever smudge of donut icing must be there as heat flooded her cheeks.He was faster. His lips were pressed against hers before she even had time to register what was happening. When she did she stiffened with shock. That lasted for a brief moment, and then she relaxed, feeling alarmingly as if her body had been turned to jelly. Was she actually melting? His lips were hot, alternately soft and firm as he worked them against hers, slipping his tongue over them and touching it to the corner of her mouth.She parted her lips in response, inviting his tongue in with a sugar-scented sigh. Sometime during the next few moments she realized he'd wrapped his arms around her and had one in her hair. The other rested on her hip, gripping her through her jeans. It was a good thing he was holding her head, because it was spinning pleasantly, her mind whirling with a myriad of electrifying sensations.The kiss ended abruptly when a vehicle sped by, its horn blaring rudely.
Hope you enjoyed these kissing facts & the excerpt. Never hurts to have more reasons to kiss someone special, does it? ;)
