About This Quiz
Kissing is kind of funny when you think about it. For non-verbal communication, it can be loaded with meaning both intentional and otherwise. You could kiss your grandma on the cheek or have a passionate kiss with someone you're in love with. In some countries, you'll get a kiss hello from a total stranger, and if movies are to be believed, you might get an ominous kiss from a dangerous person if you've crossed the wrong people.
When you're with someone and feeling a little amorous, kissing can go a long way towards sending a message. A great kisser can inflame those passions between the two of you and confirm you definitely met the right person. But a terrible kisser could throw your whole night off or make you wish you had some breath mints handy.ÂÂ
A lot is going on with just a simple meeting of the lips. Knowing as you do how important it is to put your best lip forward, have you ever stopped to wonder what people are thinking about you when they lock lips with you? What's your kissing game like? Are you bringing everything to the table or are you leaving people feeling like they just encountered a dead fish? Better take the quiz and find out what sort of kisser you are!
