What does it mean when a guy kisses your neck?
There are many meanings to the neck kisses men give you.
Here are 15 meanings of kisses on the neck for guys:
1. He is in love with you
The biggest reason a man will neck-kisses you is that he loves you. A neck kiss is unmistakably romantic, but it also screams “I Love You”.
If a man truly loves you, it’s possible to be certain that he will eventually kiss your delicate neck.
2. He wants intimacy
Guys know that neck kisses can be a great way to express your desire to be intimate with someone. It is also one of the most romantic kisses for women.
You should still be able to discern if he wants intimacy or just sex by the way he kisses you. He’s seeking a deep connection if he is giving you a gentle or passionate kiss. He may be only sexually attracted if it is a simple love bite.
3. He wants to give you pleasure
Sometimes, guys want to make you smile when they kiss your neck. You may also be able to get some sexual tension from them by giving you a playful tease-type hug on your neck.
If he knows that you like your neck being rubbed (which most women do), he will likely give you a few vampire kisses to let you shiver and to hear your soft, sensual moans.
4. He doesn’t want you to kiss him back
If a guy doesn’t want to have you kiss him back (for instance, he wants to control the situation sexually), he will likely get a deep kiss on your neck.
This doesn’t necessarily mean he is in love with you. However, he will likely do so if he wants to dominate you.
5. He trusts you
Guys aren’t romantic and are not as familiar with the different types of kisses as more experienced men. If they trust you, a neck hug is likely to be in their future.
You may be surprised by his passion for your neck, as it is such an erogenous area.
6. He wants you to feel better
If a man wants to make you feel better and knows that kissing you on your neck will help you forget about the world for a while (or at least until you get over it), he’s more likely to do so when you’re feeling down.
It may be a way for him to kiss you and rub your skin with his teeth. Sometimes, however, men do it from a sweet, friendly place and not as a romantic partner.
7. He wants to have sex
One of the most common meanings for guys kissing your neck is that they want to have a good time with you. The more he kisses your neck and bites it, the more likely he is to want to have an affair or make out with someone.
8. He wants to drive you crazy
Some men just want to make you mad by biting/kissing and kicking your neck. It all depends on how well he knows you and whether they want to be with you, date you, or sleep with you.
If he loves you, even your long-term partner or husband might kiss you on the neck.
9. He knows you love it
Men will love to kiss your neck if they know you are fond of it.
Keep your secrets if you don’t want to be a hostage to potential vampires.
10. He is Testing the Waters
Sometimes, guys just want to test the waters by pecking your neck.
They don’t care if they want to have babies with you or just get into hot, steamy makeout sessions, a few kisses on the neck are a good place for them to start.
How you react will determine how they proceed with their master plan.
11. He is Making a Statement
You may think you know a guy if you just met him, or think he is a particular “type”. Even if you’re just friends, a friend might give you a shocking kiss on the neck to surprise you or have fun.
12. He is initiating a makeout session
No matter your relationship status, a guy may begin to kiss you out of the blue if he is truly into you and comfortable with you.
This is because, if he’s looking to initiate a makeout session with you, kissing your neck is a good place to start. He also knows this if he has some experience with women.
13. He is a Sensual Being
Believe it or not, some guys can be incredibly sensual. It may seem difficult to believe, but depending on past relationships, some guys can be more than just sensual. They are considerate enough to show affection and even regularly kiss you on the neck.
14. He wants you to know that he cares
If a man kisses your neck, it could be a sign that he is caring about you or about something/hardship that you are going through.
These kisses don’t come from a place where there is sexual desire but are more intimate and sweet.
15. He wants to feel your reaction
Last, but not least, the 15th meaning of guys giving you smooches around the neck is that they want your reaction. It’s not something you can see, but it is something you can feel. Experienced men know that you will get goosebumps and that your hair will stand taller than normal. Your muscles will tighten up.
If he touches your neck with his hands and then steps in close enough to touch your skin, chances are that he wants to feel your reactions.
How to respond when a guy kisses your neck
There are almost as many ways you can respond to a guy kissing your neck as there are meanings behind why guys want a kiss on your neck.
These are some of the most common ways a guy will respond to a kiss on his neck:
Stop talking immediately
Stop talking right away when you get neck kisses. Focus on the sensation and enjoy the moment.
His Hair is Yours to Play With
You can also allow him to focus on your neck by zipping your lips, and playing with your hair while you do this may encourage him to do it even more passionately.
Gasp/Moan/Enjoy
Typical responses include gasping for surprise, crying from joy, and enjoying the sensation of his neck kiss. If you don’t respond in this manner, at most a little, you might need to question the man kissing you on your neck.
Show/Expose More About Your Neck
It’s a great idea to expose more of your neck if you are enjoying the moment and don’t want it to end soon. This will let him know that you are in the moment and want to keep it going.
Bring Him closer to you
You can pull him closer depending on your preference. You can now force him to bite your neck or take his turn kissing his neck.
Wrap Your Arms Around Him
Once you have him in your arms, wrap your arms around you and lock him in place. To give him more access, tilt your neck towards your mouth. He’ll immediately understand and will do your pleasure bidding.
What does it mean if a guy wants to kiss your neck?
A guy asking permission to kiss his neck is often one step away from asking permission to pull your shirt up or to take your skirt down in his mind. It could be a way for the guy to claim you, show his love, flirt with you, or just have a good time.
What do neck kisses mean?
Depending on the man, your relationship status and the circumstances in which the kiss takes place, neck kisses can have many meanings. A neck kiss can indicate that a man is interested in sex, is interested in you and/or loves you. A neck kiss is a way for men to test their limits with you before they make bolder moves.
Do Kisses on the Neck Make You Happy?
Kisses on the neck, which are almost always considered to be good, have a sexual undertone. Kisses on the neck can be very erotic and exciting, regardless of whether your guy is trying to get horny or just wants to check your reaction to his warm breath, wet lips, and sensitive area.
How do you tell if he loves you by his kiss?
You can identify the signs that a man is kissing you and how they feels about you by looking at them. You should feel his love for you in his kisses. His kisses are longer, more tender, and more intimate than those from men who don’t love you as much as he does.
