你的接吻方式暴露了什么？[1]

Whether it's a gentle peck or a playful nibble, a kiss is more than just a kiss according to a new series of infographics that reveals how you and your partner pucker up speaks volumes about your relationship.

一个新的信息图表显示，你和你的伴侣怎样接吻充分表现了你们的关系，不论是温柔的轻吻还是嬉闹的咬吻，亲吻的意义都不止于此。

Although there are a variety of ways to show physical affection, Phil Mutz from LittleThings compiled a list of 11 different ways to kiss your love - and what your favorite style says about you and your partner's romance.

尽管从肢体上表达爱意的方式多种多样，但是“小事物” GENTLE KISS 轻吻

Because this type of kiss is typically a prelude to more physical intimacy, it is described as being about 'teasing and delayed gratification' and usually shared between two people who are deeply comfortable with each other.

这种接吻方式通常是进一步肢体接触的前奏，所以它通常被描述为“挑逗或者延迟满足感”，而且通常在两个人关系十分舒适时发生。

PECK 匆匆一吻

For people who are kissing for the first time or just started dating, Phil explained that a peck is 'all about testing the waters'. It is a sign that a person would like to continue a physical relationship but wants to make sure that the other person feels the same.

菲尔说这样的接吻就是试试水，适合第一次接吻或是刚开始约会的情侣。通常，情侣中的一方想要更亲密的肢体接触，他们会用这种方式试探对方是否也有同样的想法。

However, as a relationship deepens it becomes a sign of comfort as it can be an intimate way to say 'hello' or 'goodbye' to your partner.

然而，随着关系变深，这样接吻渐渐成为伴侣间问好或是道别的一种亲密的方式，意味着两人相处在一起很舒服。

SINGLE-LIP KISS 单唇亲吻

This type of kiss is more intimate than a peck because the partners choose to be deeply focused on one section of the other's mouth. However, it is a slow kiss that can seem more romantic than more aggressive open mouth kisses.

这种亲吻方式比匆匆一吻更亲密，因为亲吻的一方会着重吻对方嘴的具体某一部位。不过，这种吻比较舒缓，和较为激烈的湿吻相比，更加浪漫。

FRENCH KISS 法式接吻

When couples engage in a French kiss, they massage their tongues together, and according to Phil this type of smooch is about exploration and wanting to get the know the other person even more.

当情侣进行法式接吻时，他们的舌头交缠在一起。菲尔说这种吻是一种探索，意味着他们想进一步了解对方。

SLOPPY KISS 湿吻

When two people throw caution to the wind and 'swap spit' during open mouth kisses, it is typically a sign of an intense physical relationship and sexual energy.

当两个人张嘴“交换唾液”时，他们完全放开了，这通常意味着强烈的肉体关系和性能量。

These types of kisses can often lead to the bedroom as partners freely explore each other's mouths without abandon or fear of boundaries.

伴侣间可以自由地探索对方的口腔，丝毫没有任何顾忌，所以这种吻往往以床事告终。

CHEEK KISS 脸颊吻

Phil explained that a peck on the cheek shows friendship and affection and 'all about conveying that you like someone'.

菲尔解释说脸颊上的一吻代表友谊与感情，等于在说“你喜欢某人”。

When couples share a kiss on the cheek after years of being together, it may be a sign that they still have a strong friendship at the root of their relationship.

如果是多年的夫妻互相亲吻脸颊，或许就意味着他们依旧拥有根植于他们爱情之中的坚贞的友谊。

CLOSED MOUTH KISS 闭嘴吻

According to Phil, this type of kiss reveals that two people aren't necessarily comfortable with each other.

据菲尔所说，这种吻表示恋爱双方并没有那种理所当然的舒适。

If this type of kiss is exchanged between people who are in a long term relationship, it could mean a sign that they are 'putting up emotional wall', and they most likely need to work on communicating with each other.

如果这种吻出现在一段长期的感情关系中，或许意味着他们正在“修建一座情感的墙”，双方的沟通工作迫在眉睫。

BUTTERFLY KISS 蝶吻

One of the sweetest - and most unique kisses - is the butterfly kiss, which doesn't actually involve lips at all.

蝶吻是最为甜蜜和特殊的吻之一，它完全不需要双方的嘴。

In order to exchange a butterfly kiss, two people have to move their faces towards each other until their eyelids are almost touching before they begin rapidly fluttering their eyelashes.

如果想做出蝶吻，两人需要面对面把脸颊靠的足够近，在双方的眼皮就快要接触的时候快速眨眼。

When done right, it feels you are being kissed by the delicate wings of a butterfly. Phil explained that this type of kiss is a symbol of 'young love' because it is not as commonly shared between more mature couples.

如果方法得当，感觉就会好像你在被精致的蝴蝶翅膀亲吻一样。菲尔解释说这是“年轻的爱”的一种象征，因为在成熟的伴侣之中这种吻并不常见。

ANGEL KISS 天使之吻

When someone lightly kisses another person's closed eyelid, it is often referred to as an angel kiss. This type of smooch is an intimate gesture that is meant to give the other person a feeling of security in comfort.

一个人轻轻地吻另一个人的眼皮，叫做“天使之吻”。这种吻是一种亲密的举动，意在给另一个人安全舒适的感受。

According to Phil, someone who gives their partner angel kisses believes it is important to take care of one another.

据菲尔说，给他人天使之吻的人认为他需要给被亲吻者予以照料。

The angel kiss can also be a symbol of trust between two people because it is all about protection.

因为它意味着守护，天使之吻也是两人之间信任的象征。

NIBBLE KISS 咬吻

When couple's gently bite each other's lips without drawing blood it is a sign of a 'feisty' relationship.

情侣轻轻地用不会导致流血的力度咬对方的嘴唇，代表着一段“充满活力的”感情。

Phil explained that nibbling your partner shows a strong physical passion and may be an indicator that two people have a 'healthy, and perhaps athletic, sex life'.

菲尔解释说咬对方的嘴唇意味着强烈的肉体激情，可能暗示着双方拥有“健康甚至活跃的性生活”。

SPIDERMAN KISS 蜘蛛侠吻

In the 2002 blockbuster Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst introduced a new type of kiss while playing their respective characters Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson.

在2002年大片《蜘蛛侠》中，托比•马奎尔和克里斯汀•邓斯特分别扮演皮特•帕克与玛丽•珍•沃森的时候给我们展现了一种新式的吻。

During the beloved scene in the film, Peter is hanging upside when Mary pulls down his mask to expose only his lips as she gives him a passionate kiss.

在这个备受喜爱的影片情节中，皮特倒挂下来，玛丽拉下他的面具露出嘴唇，然后给了他一个热烈的吻。

The iconic kiss is far from practical, and unsurprisingly, kissing your partner an upside down kiss when they are laying down is a sign of spontaneity in a relationship.

尽管这个标志性的吻要付诸行动并不实际，然而可以想象，当你的伴侣躺下的时候倒过来亲吻她 'This kiss shows that your relationship still surprises you,' Phil wrote. 'You each still share a sense of excitement, and you love the opportunity to sneak up and lay an unexpected kiss on your partner.'

“这种吻表达这段感情依然给你惊喜，”菲尔写道，“你们依然对恋情感到兴奋，你也喜欢抓住机会偷偷给对方一个惊喜之吻的体验。”
