Kourtney and Travis kissing tongues on the red carpet

It is a mystery that keeps me awake more often than I would like: where do some people learn to kiss? Why are there so many different kissing techniques and why does a bad kiss ruin everything immediately? And if a kiss is bad, does the other person notice or do they think they are doing really well? By the way, I really feel for bad kissers, who will never experience what it feels like to have a truly good kiss. Because let's be honest: if someone kisses badly, you obviously don't say anything about it. Are you now doubting whether you are a good kisser or are you determined to improve your techniques, then avoid these terrible ways of kissing.

The hard tongue
This is the only time I told someone that they really didn't kiss well. Okay, he asked for it himself, but his self-satisfied look indicated that he thought I would give him a passing grade anyway. He didn't expect that I would burst that dream with my ‘it could be a bit softer’ all at once, but what was I supposed to say? So for the love of God: relax that tongue. It's really better for everyone.

The wet rag
If you ask me, there is no scenario in which it is normal to wipe your face after a kissing session. Kissing is still a case of mouth-to-mouth and not tongue-to-chin. Keep that in mind.

The washing machine
I can still remember so well that this was a tip in BreakOut!: open your mouth, stick out your tongue and circle around your partner's tongue. Some people still have this advice framed above their bed, because oh my god, there are so many people who do this. If you're lucky, you can just about gasp for air, but with an enthusiastic washing machine, you don't stand a chance.

The hard biter
Once upon a time, there was a Belgian, a writer, and a night out. It sounds like a bad joke and it actually was. I met him one evening when I was finally exploring the market again as a fresh single. He was the most handsome guy I had ever seen and at the same time, I had never been able to understand someone so poorly. Luckily, you don't need to talk to kiss, but when he felt the need to repeatedly pull my lips almost off my face with his teeth, I was done quickly. Just don't do it.

The hider
One more time for the people with the budget cards in the back: your tongue doesn't have to stay in your own mouth. I used to really enjoy playing hide and seek, but if I first have to search your mouth with my tongue to find where yours is, the moment is already gone. Dare to show it a bit more, it deserves to be seen!
