TikToker Sparks Debate on Whether Kissing Your Partner Just to Kiss Them is Necessary in a Relationship

Most adults in this world know what it's like to finally kiss your crush. Even if it's a one night stand or someone you end up marrying, that first kiss is magical. But what about the kisses after the first? Is kissing just for the beginning of the relationship or can you keep that magic going with kisses? TikToker Brooke Owens aka @_spicycounsler says that kissing should be special for the entire relationship, and not just used in foreplay. 

“This can be especially helpful for those that are struggling with sex and feel pressure to have it when their partner starts showing any kind of affection,” she captions her “spicy tip” video with. “Separate it out and focus on the small acts of intimacy themselves.”

As a counselor, she often posts TikTok videos giving tips and advice on having a healthy relationship. However, the viewers of this kissing tip video seem to be split on the advice. Some are very much all about the random special kisses, while others seem to think any sort of kissing that doesn't lead to the act is immature. 

Owens challenges her viewers that are in relationships to try this if they aren't already. Just going up to your partner and plant a sweet kiss on them, or even initiate a make out session, but end it before it gets any hotter than that. Viewers who tried it said in the comments that the kissing works. 

Others are in shock that anybody would be in a relationship with someone who doesn't kiss them just to kiss them. Kissing can be intimate even if it doesn't lead to sex, but many seem to even find them bothersome. Married couples and people in long term relationships are commenting on both sides, with some saying they are always giving each other loving little kisses and can't imagine a world without doing that—while others say they haven't kissed in years and are perfectly happy with that. One person even pointed out that some couples are just starting a family and have jobs and lives and simply don't find the time to make out anymore, but that's no reason for a relationship to go south. 

So the results are still up in the air: Is kissing good for a relationship or is it immature?
