I don’t think I like kissing

I always see kissing/making out as this lavish and electric experience. In books, shows, movies, even described by my friends. After doing it though, I don’t really care for it.

For context, I am bi, so I know this isn’t a sexuality thing. I’ve made out with men and women and it just never seems gratifying. It feels like I’m slobbering all over my own mouth and someone else’s. And French kissing is even worse. Not to mention how tiring making out is. My jaw just starts to lock up after a while.

I do feel like a small kiss is more intimate for me. Or kisses on the body. Like kisses leading up to oral are very erotic. A long ass makeout sesh is just boring and tiring to me though.

I guess I’m just wondering if anyone has any insight on this or feels the same way.
