If my H said I would like to kiss you while within the four walls of my bedroom. I would either respond Ok or thats nice. Neither with enthusiasm and more then likely with a hint of sarcasim or eye roll type expression. If my H was to kiss me I would either respond with a peck if not really wanting kissed or a response that says I am open to more then a peck. Both forms of saying I want a to kiss you verbally or physically holds a chance for rejection. But in my case vebally holds the larger chance for complete rejection. I am more of a action person. If I want to kiss my H I will how far that kiss goes will depend on his response. If I want to have sex with my H I will inititate it. Regardless of the outcome may be. The only time I can imagine telling someone I want to kiss them would be if they were a virtual stranger that I had a uncontrollable urge to kiss. Then maybe I don't know. Okay a for sure I can see myself saying this to someone if I had the urge to kiss them and they were miles away and we were on the phone. And it was not possible to just kiss them. The fact that I am a action type person can have its down falls. I do not respond well to my H and his tenative feelers out type behavior. It is actually a big turn off to me. Which causes me to react negatively to his mamby pamby like behavior. (that is just how I see it not saying it is). Though I do not like controlling behavior I do like assertive behavior in my spouse.
