Rihanna Kiss (Source | gify.com)

Boys, whether you like it or not, your girl kisses and tells and sometimes, it isn’t good! Whether it’s your first time or the hundredth, mint/mouthwash and everything that smells and tastes great while kissing was created for a reason. Your girl might never tell you this (I do hope she does), but consider this as an act of generosity as I tell you the eight things you should NEVER consume before you kiss her.

Attention! These items could actually gross the person out.

1. Garlic/Onions

Uh, Oh! You just ate what!? Please leave! GO!

2. Eggs

Did you not know eggs are nature’s stink bombs? – Just one whiff is enough to send most people running!

3. Excess Alcohol

Being drunk in love is great! But no girl wants you burping inside her mouth after overdosing on beer. This is a complete no-no!

4. Garam Masala

Mommy made Biryani today? “Is kiss se achi toh Garam Masala picture hi thi”. No kidding!

5. Paan

Well, I’d rather make out with a toad instead! Vomit happening.

6. Paneer

Your mouth stinks of paneer….No kiss for you. Deal with it!

7. Fish

So my friends gone through this and I must say – ain’t no amount of furtive breath mints gonna mask your stinky breath. Not tonight, and probably not till Tuesday.

8. Cigarettes

Here’s a surefire way to guarantee your date ends in a handshake instead of a kiss: Smoked way too many cigarettes tonight?

I get it, the first kiss can be a nightmare of anxiety but trust me, you want to make a good impression. So while you agonise over what to wear and rehearse intelligent things to say, I suggest you overdose on mint before you kiss.
