Re: How many kisses?
LOL, when you see the starlets doing it, it's totally phony.
When you're actually in a country where it's the norm, it's actually a nice warm feeling. I'll try to explain it:
When I got my first (from Barney Boatman or Marcel Luske..can't remember who was first) it was a cool feeling, kind of like, "Great greeting, I like it! I felt liked and respected, as if I had a new friend (not "liked" as in "I want to sex her").
From that point on, I've made it a point to show that I'm in tune with the custom of that greeting from certain cultures. Such as when in St. Maartens. The casino manager greeted me with a kiss/kiss every morning, and other employees/residents did as well. Then in Costa Rica and in Canada. It's really only in the US that we get all funny feeling about it.
However, I'm also a demostrative person so take it as you may. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
