Are you kissing a fool? Is the person on the other side of your lips worthy of your attentions? Teen Advive helps you decide if the person you are kissing is cool or a fool. Figure it out with these 15 warning signs, answer "yes" to 10 or more and your kissing partner may not be all that s/he seems.

Your kissing a fool if...

  1. Everytime your lips meet s/he seems to be pulling away rather than leaning in.
  2. You get together at parties or when you run in to each other but never seem to have any planned dates.
  3. S/he has been known to whisper somebody else's name by "mistake."
  4. His/her breath is always minty fresh... players are always prepared!
  5. You only ever get together when one or both of you are intoxicated.
  6. He or she is in a relationship with somebody else, no matter how bad they claim that relationship is if their still in it the kiss is tainted.
  7. When you kiss you just feel in your gut that his/her heart is not really in it.
  8. There never seems to be a good time to talk about your relationship but there is always time for making out.
  9. S/he never, never ever, calls the day after you get together and if you call s/he is usually too busy to talk or doesn't answer at all.
  10. You know of at least three other people who have the same type of "relationship" with your kissing buddy.
  11. When the two of you get together kissing is all you do you don't talk or just hang out.
  12. You just can't seem to get him/her to settle down with you alone, but s/he is always ready for a hot and heavy make out session.
  13. Kissing is the only thing you genuinely enjoy doing with this person.
  14. When you use the words "boyfriend", "girlfriend", or "us" you can feel her/him cringe.
  15. You have caught her/him kissing somebody else.
Sure it sucks to realize you're being played and that the object of your affections was nothing more than a wolf in sheeps clothing, but hey, at least you figured it out before it was too late!
