The type of kiss you and your partner engage in can say a lot about the relationship.
Australian dating coach Debbie Rivers of Dare 2 Date revealed the seven types of kisses and what they potentially mean.

‘A forehead kiss comes in the same category as a cheek kiss, and is more ‘friend zone’ than passion,’ Debbie tells FEMAIL.

1. FOREHEAD KISS
A forehead kiss is something you might give a child and is not an intimate or passionate kiss.
‘In the child/parent relationship, it’s about caring, but there is a power dynamic attached to it,’ Debbie says.
‘This kiss comes in the same category as a cheek kiss and is more “friend zone” or care zone than passion.’
2. STOMACH KISS
A kiss on the stomach represents intimacy and sexual attraction, and often leads to more erotic places.
‘It’s a definite that they are comfortable being with you,’ Debbie explains. ‘It’s not likely to happen during a casual one night stand as they will be more interested in other things.’
3. NECK KISS
A neck kiss is highly erotic and a clear sign of sexual attraction in the relationship.
‘Often in long-term relationships the neck kiss is something that falls by the wayside. It’s a very sensitive spot that is about passion,’ Debbie says.

4. CHEEK KISS
The cheek says more about friendship than passion, Debbie notes.
‘It can be more of a going through the motions type of action, than about being connected and in the moment,’ she explained.
However Debbie says that the meaning can be different if it forms a trail of kisses.
5. ALL OVER THE BODY
‘This is an indication of passion, connection and being into each other,’ Debbie says.
Wanting to touch each part of your partner is very intimate and about connection, and the sign of a healthy relationship.

6. DEEP AND PASSIONATE KISS
There is nothing more intimate than a deep and passionate kiss, Debbie notes.
‘It’s about not being able to keep your hands off the person, and wanting to be as close as possible to them,’ she said.
Debbie says that this type of kiss is intimate, genuine, shows connection, and not something you can fake.
7. SLOBBERY KISS
If this is a new relationship, Debbie suggests going about teaching your partner how to kiss.
‘If you really like them I would recommend teaching them how to kiss through actions,’ she says.
‘You may need to have a chat about it as kissing is such a wonderful part of a healthy relationship.’
