Sound of kissing drive me nuts

Post Reply New Topic

Going slightly off topic here for a mo: true confessions time, reading this thread, I've only just realised after 3 decades that actually I don't really like kissing all that much.

I am - uh - gobsmacked to realise this.

Not sure if it's the sounds or just the absurdity of the whole thing. I hate watching people kiss. There's an expression: face-sucking. It sort of explains the absurd process.

meh. maybe I'm just not in a romantic mood just now

As normally people say "Get A Room", not really the kissing that is annoying you, like someone else said...

& eating the sound would be annoying you, but what really is, is the fact the person to you is been rude.. If everyone else can eat without a loud speaker been attached to they mouth...

Thank God! I thought I was the only one! Every time my Mum kisses her dude it makes me wanna puke! I scream loud to cover the sound which has become a joke for them! I can't sit at the dinner table for meal times either and the noise of MP3 players drives me insane!

Ugh! Even just reading everyone’s comments is making me cringe. The worst for me is hearing people kissing on TV shows or movies. I don’t mind if I’m kissing someone romantically, but I hate getting a kiss on the cheek from my mum, especially if it makes a noise.

Smacking and slurping sounds drive me nuts, too!

Yes, there are a lot of noises that bother me greatly. Repeated crinkling noises or most tapping sounds like if a member of my family tap, tap, taps their finger on a table. I have to ask them to stop. I start to lose all focus and all my attention goes toward unintentionally analyzing the beat or lack thereof that they are tap, tap, tapping....

I do agree that "smooch" "smack" kissing sound is annoying.

What's being described here sounds a lot like misophonia <link>; intense negative emotion due to often very specific sounds. The Wikipedia page I linked to there, has this to say...

I think one of the reasons i view romance/sex as vulgar and carnal is because of the noise and touch- the sensory involvement. Kissing to me looks & kind of sounds like two anuses touching each other, it is beyond disgusting to me.

Probably I do not have as a severe sensitivity to those sounds as the previous posters but those sounds do make me noticeably uncomfortable. I generally do not have this issue with the sounds of climax nor looking at lovemaking.
