Why do people make the "smooching" noise when kissing? It seems like it takes at least a little intentional effort to make that noise. Is it weird to make out but not make the noise?

because otherwise it would be like a peck from a bird and yes, that would be weird

I once had a girlfriend. There's more to the story. I once had a girlfriend who I'd gross out by trying to kiss her with "horse lips." That isn't why it didn't work out, though.

What does “horse lips” mean?

Imagine gently kissing someone like a horse trying to grab a carrot out of your hand.

I am ashamed to admit how long I tried to imitate a horse after reading your comment. Still not 100% sure what you meant lol

Please enjoy this video as a consolation prize.

Ok I’ll imitate that horse and then maybe I’ll understand. I just need a bunch of people to take drugs with me so that they believe I’m a horse and will ride on top of me. It only works if everyone involved is convinced.

My bird requests good night kisses. They make big smacky kiss noise. She doesn't peck though. Just places the top of her beak on my nose and makes the noise.
