COMMUNICATE!
Don't be afraid to tell your partner what you like and don't like! Why? Because the more you like to kiss him, the more you will. And kissing is such an important part of a relationship. In fact, studies have found that couples who kiss more often communicate better.

With your mouth, that is. Try the neck, ears and lips-in that order. Mixing it up keeps your partner engaged and wanting more.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT WHAT COMES NEXT...
It can be hard to do, but savor the kiss for just that-a kiss. Not as foreplay. You'll reap more of the benefits of a kiss-like how it makes you feel more trusting of your partner-if you don't focus on what's coming next.

NEVER STOP KISSING!
Well, maybe at a family dinner you can keep your hands and lips off each other for a little. But most couples admit to kissing drastically less after the "honeymoon" period-i.e. the very beginning of the relationship-is over. Don't let that happen! In fact, after you've known each other for a while, your kisses will probably just get better!
Pucker up!
