Super Friday Fun: Kissing with Closed Eyes


Hi people, it’s the beginning of the weekend, whoop whoop! I am particularly excited about this weekend because it’s the first weekend after my graduate exams and I feel super cool. It also marks the first weekend of the rainy season in Nigeria and it has been rainy every day since a week so I know I am going to be making love to my bed all weekend long…ain’t nothing better.

On Monday, I read this article about people that don’t know how to kiss and I feel its an unforgivable sin not to know how to kiss! If you fall under this category, Youtube is your friend for practical tutorial. Here is something that can help too. Just dip, nibble and twirl or curl in a sensual and slow way, you don't need to rush.
  • DON'T BITE, 
  • KEEP SALIVA OUT OF IT,
  •  KEEP YOUR MOUTH FRESH AND CLEAN, 
  • MAKE IT MORE INTERESTING BY LICKING SOME MINT  (secret potion) Hope it helps.
So back to why we are here. Guess what I discovered!!! People still kiss with their eyes closed. It beats my imagination even though I have been guilty a couple of times but even with all the western civilization, the "claimed" exposure, most couples still very much close their eyes while they kiss irrespective of the age. I would really like to know why this is so. Who actually invented this custom? It’s like when your eyes are not closed during this activity, you are violating a sacred principle. Even the bride and groom while sharing their first official kiss do same.

Picture this, you meet this super delicious looking person, everything is on point. This said person stimulates your mind, sets your toes tingling, and there’s something in their eyes that makes you just want to lean in. They fill you with this desire that all you want to do is know what it feels like to be up close and personal. So you give in to the insane urge to just taste, experience, feel, sense, KISS and guess what, your eyes are closed.

Now, some experts have explained that the reason is more about the senses and wanting to feel the kiss to its full effect.  With the eyes open, your brain is focusing on all of the stimuli you are surrounded by in addition to the feeling you get from the kiss. 
I had this conversation with a couple of girlfriends and male friends too and they said while kissing, it’s natural that your eyes are closed. It’s almost like your brain just shuts your eyes. A male friend said the most hilarious. According to him, a girl that doesn’t close her eyes while he’s kissing her is a wayward girl. She has seen it all and he might not take her seriously. Can you just beat that? 
 Although, I know I have always felt that the feelings are much more intense when you close your eyes because your focus is just your internal feelings and the kissing experience without all of that other interference, opening your eyes while kissing this person might just distract you and you won’t be able to experience the full effect especially if the said person is a great kisser. Trust me; you want that experience to linger for a lifetime.  
 
This is just me talking, I was able to get response from some people on my blackberry messenger and here’s what they had to say:

1. You wouldn’t want to see what you look like while kissing, so neither would your partner;
2.  Its weird enough to kiss with your eyes open, but even weirder to make moaning sounds;
3.  Its bad for your eyeballs to look that close at anything;
4.  For females, it ruins everything if you’re fantasizing about Chris Attoh when you know the man you are kissing isn’t even close;
5.  For males, if you’re kissing in the middle of intercourse, with your eyes closed it’s easier to imagine kissing that video vixen;
6.  With your eyes open, your lover’s nose looks bigger and funny;
7. Its just natural and it creates chemistry between the kisser and the kissee.

These are just a few of the responses I got. I would like to hear from you and in fact, I implore you to kiss that special somebody this weekend with your eyes closed and then with your eyes opened and share with me the experience. I'm sure it will be fun.  I will share mine *wink*. Have a great weekend

Live, Love and Learn.

My Two Kobo Thoughts Thursday for Lovers

How this gist with my colleague and I at work started I don't know but It inspired me to write this. So we were watching a political rally and we noticed one of the prominent people present was busy grinning at his mobile phone while his wife, the first lady of that state was smiling cheerfully while waving the party's flag. My colleague at work concluded that he was probably sexting his bae and couldn't be bothered about the stupid rally anyways. He probably couldn't wait to jet off to meet his bae already. I was amazed at her thought and I argued that he was probably tweeting about the rally, checking updates and reading news online. She disagreed o! She said the average black man is a cheat as long as he has roots from Africa. So I allowed her continue, and she explained that she had heard so many reasons why men cheat and she can only blame the girlfriends or wives. This reminded me of a friend (Tomiwa) that became a serial cheat overnight. His reason.... h...

LIVING IN LAGOS CHRONICLES BY YOURS TRULY 2

By popular demand, I present to you the concluding part of the blogbuster 'LIVING IN LAGOS CHRONICLES BY YOURS TRULY. Click on this link  LIVING IN LAGOS CHRONICLES BY YOURS TRULY Honestly, I wasn't hypnotized in any way neither was I under a spell of some sort, at least thats what I tell anyone that asks. But was I? A question I keep asking myself till date, I hope at the end of this,you might be able to give me an answer. Story begins..... We drove off to somewhere in Coates Str, EbuteMetta,Lagos Mainland to be precise.We got off the car and made an agreement not to expose the source of the money to the baba, we would tell him that we found the money in a land we plan to buy in Agbara, Lagos. We walked into a sawmill then to a small yard was where we stopped. As we waited for the almighty 'BABA' to come out, I quivered in fear. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea, 'I better opt out now', I said to myself. Just as I was about to let my thoughts ...

Game or Simply Lame

I was having one of my chitchat moments with a close friend and the topic 'Standards' was raised. It was then I realized that many dating couples have too high standards they expect of each other thus many single people or broken marriages. Everyone has standards,they keeps us motivated to do our best, but often times these standards cause undue stress. Some often impose their standards on their loved ones; this is a new source of stress and frustration for partners who feel they cannot meet these expectations. I'm not saying standards are not good or unhealthy in relationship, I only think it shouldn't determine how much or how far the relationship should go. It also shouldn't be a criterium to determine if the relationship will lead to marriage but then again who is to blame? The partner with unattainable standards or the one who isn't truthful to him or herself and believes these standards can be reached.
