boyfriend help: How do I tell my boyfriend that he uses too much saliva when he kisses me without hurting his feelings? - Help.com

Just be honest with him. If you’re worried about him taking it badly then let him know all the things he does right as well. Openness is always the best policy in any relationship.

I don’t mean to be negative…but…If my girlfriend(if I had one) comented(and it wasn’t “wow your an awsome kissser”) on my kissing, all I would hear is “your s**t at kissing”, is could be “hmmmm, that was ok” I would still hear “that was s***”.

The thing is, you kinda goda take charge in the kissing, and, take lead, change the kiss, and if the bloke knows your enjoying it more, he’ll enjoy it more. make him kiss you how you want to be kissed. I’m not sure how that will stop him from using too much saliva…but prehaps if you say, “no kiss me like this, you’ll like it more”…just be careful what you say.

Spare his feelings by all means, but there does come a point at which he’s just being oversensitive. If he improves his kissing style after you talk to him then let him know this.
