Do you still kiss your parents?

[Cuban_Liberal]

A comment Paddy just made prompted me to ask this. Paddy said that one of the things he thinks is so cool about my family is that we all still kiss each other when we get together, and he's right-- I still kiss my folks and siblings, and my folks--- even my dad-- still kiss all of us.

How is your family on kissy/huggy issues?

1. I kiss my mom everytime I say hi or bye

I kiss my sister at times too but rarely my bad. We do give hugs though.

4. I went through a phase at about 13-15...

For some bizarre reason, I let my friends convince me that it was 'feminine' to still kiss my dad, so I tried not to. I eventually figured out that my friends were idiots, and went back to doing it.

12. Ah, peer pressure!

It got you too!:)

I don't remember ever kissing my father. He's not very affectionate.
Actually, I don't really remember kissing any of my male relatives.

16. My dad's very affectionate and gregarious.

He's always hugging, kissing, tickling, teasing, etc. .

:)

19. More so than mom? (nt)

[Cuban_Liberal]

20. No, just in a different way.

Mom's also affectionate, but not as outgoing and jovial as my dad.

2. Well, I'd do a one-up on you but I just noticed you're also a mod.

:P

3. Yes, I do still kiss my parents.

I'm also very affectionate with my husband and children. I hug and kiss my children often.

I'm very huggy with my folks.

5. I would give anything to be able to kiss my dad again.

He died more than 25 years ago. Still love him. Still miss him.

[Cuban_Liberal]

11. I'm sorry.

I dread that day.

:hug:

[Xipe Totec]

17. Thanks

Your words comfort me.

But don't dread the day, instead let your dad know how much you love him while he is still with you.

[Cuban_Liberal]

21. I do.

I'm very much "Daddy's boy", and we both know it and like it.

6. We all kiss

Brothers, sisters, sisters and brothers-in-law, Mom, Dad, Stepmother. Someone would think you were mighty pissed off if you couldn't bother to swing by and greet them with a kiss on the cheek and a hug. This is because we all live apart so when we do see each other it's been a while.

8. not only do we not kiss, we dont hug or touch

too much English ancestory I guess. Its odd though, since I have no problem hugging and kissing my guy friends.

[supernova]

9. I kiss my siblings

always and my nieces and nephews. :-)

[miss_kitty]

10. If they were still focused on the physical plane

I'd kiss 'em both.

[Droopy]

13. No kissy for us

I'm not the kissing type. I don't even hug my dad. I think the last time I did that I was around 14 and it just didn't feel right. We have a good relationship with each other but we're not very close. We're more friends than father/son.

[Vanje]

14. Yep

With everything but tongue

[JohnKleeb]

15. Where's I dunno or don't remember

and no I am not hungover.

[Solly Mack]

18. Everyday of her life. Men/women..we all kiss/hug in my family

I was always glad to be from a family that wasn't afraid to show affection. That wasn't hindered by idiotic notions regarding men displaying affection.

[Cuban_Liberal]

22. Yes.

For as long as I can remember, my dad has kissed us all.

:)

[trof]

23. We are huggers and kissers. Read on:

So was my mom.
My son-in-law wasn't, but boy he is now.
It was either that, or feel terribly left out.

We are also back-patters, hair-touslers, chin-chuckers, cheek-pinchers (lightly),arm-grippers, butt-slappers, and just generally enjoy physical contact.

Except Jack. With me. Until this Christmas.
He's 2 1/2.
For some reason I was persona non grata at Thanksgiving.
"Go WAY, Baba!"

Somethime during the Christmas visit I began to remember things my grandfather did.
"Jack? Is that some sugar I see there?"
"Where, Baba?" (wide eyed)
"Right there (base of his neck). Gimme some sugar. <Mm-mmm snort snuffle>"
Jack howls with glee. This TICKLES!
"Mommy! I got sugar! WATCH!"
Ol' Baba goes after his sugar again. Jack cannot control himself. He is about to wet his diaper, in fact I think he does.
Thanks grandpa.

24. Awwwwwww!

That's such a sweet story, trof!

:D

[trof]

27. I got a million of them.

I'm a sweet guy.
Really.
;-)

[Cuban_Liberal]

28. You've always seemed so.

:hi:

[AngryAmish]

25. No

They are dead.

[Cuban_Liberal]

26. I'm sorry.

:hug:

[terrya]

29. Of course!

Even if I didn't want to, my Mom would be upset!

We've always hugged and kissed. We've always been demonstrative like that. :-)
