A KISS ON THE FOREHEAD
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“Oh no, you walked into a glass door again, let me sooth you.”
KATIA SAYS:
“This tender and romantic kiss says, ‘I care about you, put your trust in me.’ It allows them to nestle you close as you dip your head and close your eyes as a sign of trust and vulnerability.”

A KISS ON THE HAND
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I’m very old-fashioned. I might be a person from the 17th century, perhaps one of those sexy vampires you’ve read about.”
KATIA SAYS:
“It depends on the person and how it’s done. It can mean, ‘I’m a little shy buy a traditional romantic at heart who will treat you like a lady’, or ‘I’m confident and a bit of a Casanova who likes to put on a show to get your attention.'”

A KISS ON THE SHOULDER
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I srsly need a GPS – my aim is whack.”
KATIA SAYS:
“It means, ‘I want to be close to you.'”
A KISS ON THE NOSE
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I was looking for your lips, but I got lost.”
KATIA SAYS:
“It’s an intimate and affectionate gesture that says, ‘You’re beautiful.'”

A KISS ON THE HAIR
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“Mmmm, shampoo, mmm.”
KATIA SAYS:
“It’s a nurturing gesture that shows protectiveness and indicates a close emotional bond. It says, ‘I’m here for you.'”
A KISS ON THE EAR
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“Well, this is awks. What am I doing here anyway?”
KATIA SAYS:
“The ears are erogenous zones that can be super sensitive to kiss. A kiss on the ear means, ‘I think you’re hot.'”

AN EMOJI KISS
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I finally worked out the emoji app!”
KATIA SAYS:
“These can be a non-confrontational way of testing the waters, but they can be misinterpreted as some people are naturally flirtatious. Some groups exchange kiss emoticons as signs of friendship. However, if they send flirty emoticons only to you, they’re saying, ‘I am testing the waters to see if you like me back.'”
A KISS ON THE CHEEK
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I’m your aunt Doris in disguise.”
KATIA SAYS:
“A quick peck on the cheek is a platonic kiss that says, ‘I like you as a friend’, but if their lips linger there and they seem to breathe you in, they’re showing interest in a shy way that respects your personal space. This kiss says, ‘I really like and respect you, but I’m not sure how to proceed.'”

A KISS ON THE LIPS
WE THINK IT MEANS:
“I want you to be the Lili to my Cole.”
KATIA SAYS:
“A closed kiss on the lips reveals they like you and are respectfully cautious. It says, ‘I’m really into you and I’ll follow your lead.’ An open-mouthed kiss on the lips says, ‘I’m attracted to you and dying to kiss you!'”
