How do you give someone a love-bite?

Answer 1

1. Choose the right spot. You can give someone a hickey just about anywhere. The most common place is on the throat, because the capillaries (tiny blood vessels) that are broken during a hickey are pretty close to the surface and because you don't need to remove any clothing to give a hickey on the neck. These are also the most easily visible, and while visibility is usually intended, you may want to give or receive a hickey elsewhere where it is more easily covered. The upper shoulder, between the neck and the edge of the shoulder where you can feel the muscle, is also good if you want to have the lovebite concealed. That way your partner can wear longer t-shirts if they want to have it, but reveal it with a tank top if they want to.
2. Place your lips against the skin, leaving your mouth open slightly in the middle. Your lips should be parted as though you are saying the letter "O."
3. Suck on the skin. Make a good seal with your lips against the skin, and suck the skin as though you're trying to suck it into your mouth. Continue applying suction for at least 30 seconds, possibly more. The suction will break the capillaries beneath the skin and cause the characteristic bruising that is a hickey.

   Tips :

   • Wait a few minutes for the hickey to appear. It will probably get darker or bigger in the hours after you gave it.
   • If you can't seem to give a hickey, try sucking on the skin for more time, and make sure you have a good seal between the mouth and skin so that your suction is most powerful.
   • It may help to start with your tongue against their skin, inside your mouth, then pull it back as you suck
   • If your partner doesn't want a hickey to be noticeable, ask if you can give one to him or her in a less conspicuous spot. The belly is good, not only because it won't be seen by others, but also because it provides a flat surface against which you can easily create good suction. Chest, leg, thigh, and arm are other possible places.
   • Make sure they WANT One!!!
