"Life is short, break the rules.....
forgive quickly,
kiss slowly,
love truly,
laugh uncontrollably,
and never regret anything that made you smile."

WHAT A KISS MEANS....to me!!!.
Kiss on the cheek: "We're friends"
Kiss on the forehead: "Forever you will be mine"
Kissing and smiling: "I'm completely comfortable with you"
Kiss on the hand: "I adore you"
Kiss on the neck: "We belong together"
Kiss on the shoulder: "I want you"
Kiss on the lips: "I love you" Kiss on the top of the head: I will protect you forever"
Kiss on the hair: "Tell me you love me"
Kissing while looking into each other eyes: "Don't leave me"
Kissing with the arms around the waist: "I love you too much to let you go"
Kiss on the ear: "I'm horny" or "I can't live without you
Kiss on the eyes (must be closed)..."Love is in the air"
Kissing on the palms of the hands and toes..."I want to give you pleasure"
Kiss on the stomach: "Let's have sex" or "Let's make love"
Don't ask for a kiss, take one -"there is no rain check"-
If you're thinking about someone while reading this,
