Keep Love Alive With a 10 Second Kiss

By Calvin Sorren

When a couple stands at the altar and vows to love each other, "Till death do us part," they assume they will be intimately connected forever. The kiss at the end of the ceremony symbolizes that connection. It is the most intimate connection possible between two people, even more intimate than sexual intercourse. A prostitute will tell you that they can have sex with her customers, but cannot kiss them.

The kiss identifies how things are going in a relationship, the core of it. Most couples do not even notice when their relationship starts to change. A lot of times a passionate relationship ends up a friendship over a period of time. All of a sudden they wake up and realize they are more like roommates than lovers. The key is keeping that friend and having them as a lover as well.

A 10 second kiss says "I am in love with you," where a peck on the cheek simply says "I love you." A lot of women have confessed that they have feelings of loneliness and emptiness just minutes after their spouse has come home. If this describes you, here is a foolproof way to get rid of this problem.

Of all the homework assignments I give, the 10 second kiss has the most immediate and dramatic effect. In the morning it sets the tone for the rest of the day, in the evening it sets the mood for the rest of the night. It's a passionate kiss that makes you feel warm, close and connected. I want you to grab your mate tonight and plant a 10 second kiss on him. When you hear, "What's gotten into you?" respond with, "From now on we are not going to be roommates anymore. We are going back to being lovers!

Then tell your mate that you would like to try an experiment. For the next week every time you haven't seen each other for an extended period of time (usually the work day), you are to give each other a ten-second kiss. Tell him it doesn't matter how awful his or your day has been. You are to greet each other with a ten-second kiss. You can bring out a stopwatch or use the microwave timer to get him accustomed to the length of this kiss. Have some fun with this.

Ten seconds doesn't seem like a long time, but it really is! Usually couples greet each other verbally with "Hi, I'm home" or "Anyone here?" Because there is not a physical response, they are left with isolated feelings. Once you relate to one another physically, those feelings will be replaced with warm, close ones. After the kiss, you can go about your normal routine, but now you will feel connected to one another.
