It's the Latin influence. I have learned to stay clear of my Peruvian co worker around mixed company. People automatically kiss her and then I guess they think I feel left out. Nope, I was cool with a handshake! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kisses-for-friends#post-1562060 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 07:36:03 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1562060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wonderstruck: same here!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kisses-for-friends#post-1561985 Fri, 11 Apr 2014 07:02:38 +0000 wonderstruck 1561985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with those who said just a hug.

I have some friends and even my husband's boss who likes to do the whole light kiss on the cheek, but those few and far between people are just like that.

And I really hope no one ever tries that. It weirds me out enough when my mom kisses me. Kisses are for husband and babies, like those above. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kisses-for-friends#post-1561577 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 21:08:24 +0000 Synchronicity 1561577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None!

Sometimes someone will throw me off and do 3. I've almost run into some very unfortunate situations as a result of this 3 kisses business. No one does 1. </p> <p>I didn't grow up in a place where greeting kisses are common, so it took some getting used to, but now that I'm acclimated, I like it better than a handshake or a hug. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kisses-for-friends#post-1561339 Thu, 10 Apr 2014 19:48:04 +0000 IRunForFun 1561339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>0.

I always find it awkward though, when one person is doing the kiss thing while the other meant to hug!
