Do you kiss your spouse/SO when you leave?

[olbear]

My hubby Fred gets up most mornings at 12:30AM, just after midnight. He is a truck driver. But I still get my kiss and we tell each other I love you. He always tells me, "Have a nice day". We both have nextell's so we radio each other through out the day for this and that and always tell each other "I love you". And when he gets home, I get even more "lip service".

I'll never forget, a few months after we had been married, he just left and didn't kiss me goodbye. I just cried like a baby. When he got home that night we talked about it. I shared with him the pain of losing my brother to a drunk driver and you never know when you will have your last chance for a kiss and ILU, so we promised never to let that happen agin. We haven't missed since. And it will be 20 years for us July 28th. (well, there was Dessert Storm, and his Military Drills.)

We have always held hands as we pra before each meal, and kiss afterwards. Then chow down! LOL!

Blessings,
Winnie

Always...even if I am mad at him...

I try to live by the thought that you never know if there is going to be a tomorrow...make every parting as if it were your last...morbid, but unfortunately true for many people every day...

also think about this tonight when you see each other again...many marriage counselors recommend a 10 second kiss when you see each other at the end of the work day...doesn't seem like long, but try it...hard to stay mad at anyone if you are kissing for 10 seconds...starts to feel GOOD

Shoot, I kiss him when I pass him in the kitchen and in the hall and in the garage and every chance I get!

DBF and I kiss every chance possible(no PDA if that's what you mean )

 

[rhanditresmom]

Nearly every time he leaves, I kiss him! Not always when he comes home...usually dealing with dinner and kids at that point. We ALWAYS tell each other that we love each other at the end of phone calls, when we leave for work, when we go to bed...any chance we get!

Always! I save her as the last kiss when I leave and the first when I come home.

It's great to be greeted at the door by both daughters and DW (and the dog) all of whom want Daddy's attention.

We teach the girls that our relationship is the basis of the family, so Mama and Daddy get first smooches and then everyone else

 

[cynsaun]

Yes, we kiss goodbye and hello. Additionally, we say "I love you" every time we hang up the phone. With his line of work, we just never know what could happen!

Every time and plenty in between.

Always, and we also say I love you after every phone conversation.

Without fail. Being in the Navy is tough enough and the separations can be very long. We make sure to kiss and say we love each other every time.

Whoever is leaving has to go give kisses.

When DH gets home it is a race for DD and DS to see who can give the first kiss!

DH ALWAYS kisses me when he leaves. I kiss him 9 times out of 10 when I leave. When don't always kiss when we get home, but we say I LOVE YOU EVERYDAY. I don't want one day to go by without DH hearing it. He knows I love him and I know he loves me, but it's always good to hear.

ALWAYS kiss hello and goodbye, even if we've had a tiff before we part. I'd never forgive myself if something awful happened and I hadn't kissed him so he knew I loved him.

 

[shmoogrrrl]

We usually kiss hello and good-bye whenever someone is coming or going.

 

[honeywolf7]

DBF and I are a very kissy couple.

 

[Danauk]

Always when we leave the house seperately and when we return home from work.

 

[charlie,nj]

I know a couple that doesn’t really kiss each other goodbye/hello everyday. Does that make us..err I mean them abnormal? Should they see a therapist? (not the kind of therapist that Pop Daddy needs to see..the other kind)

 

[Cthia]

My DH kisses me every morning when he leaves for work. We always say I love you when we talk on the phone and when one of us leaves the house. I usually kiss him when I get home but not so much right now with a young baby.

 

[DisneyAddict_M]

I always did. And now we're divorced. Guess my powers over him wore off.

How ironic that this post is here today, since this is the subject of conversation a lot with my husband and was the main subject of conversation last night.

We always kiss in the morning before we leave but not always upon returning home. I don't know why it's so important to me maybe I am just being anal about this, but help me out here. I believe that since my husband most of the time gets home from work after me, he should come to me and kiss me hello. When I return home after him, I always go up to him and kiss him hello. Also, in the morning since I leave first, I always kiss him goodbye.

Kissing goodnight is a whole other topic! I guess I look at it as I am doing things for him all night long...such as making him dinner, cleaning up dishes, washing his clothes and so on and so on while he gets to relax. I feel that kissing me hello and goodnight is the least he could do. Although, I do have to give him credit for kissing me for dinner each night. I guess I am venting because I am just mad at him today since I have been feeling neglected lately.

There, I feel better already!
