How many times have you read a book where the hero and heroine have just opened their eyes after a nights sleep, take one look at each other and must have their way with one another? How often have you seen a television show or movie where the beautiful woman and gorgeous hunk wake up in bed, roll into each others arms and have a big make-out session?
Fast forward to real life. I wake up every morning and give my husband a kiss, but I can assure you, no saliva is exchanged. Absolutely not one molecule. I mean, at this point in my life, personal hygiene comes first. I suppose, after years of marriage you notice things you might not have when you were first in love and full of passion. Things like halitosis. You know, the kind of breath that would stop a wild boar in his tracks. Come on, let’s get real here. Do you really want to do the nasty with nasty breath? I’m just asking.
So, if you suddenly woke up one morning next to the sexiest man of your dreams and he was staring at you, passionately, lovingly, and longingly — would you jump up, excuse yourself and brush your teeth? Or would you go with the flow and let the salivia fly?

I’m such a grouch when I wake up in the morning, I’d probably be like, “WTF are you looking at?!?!?” and then roll over and try to go back to sleep. lol

I’m still having problems trying to picture waking up next to a sexy man…..LOL. Hmmmm, I think it would depend on how his (and my
breath smelt….there are some amazing products on the market…
Thinking…..(way too much about this) – you could always stash some mouth wash by the bed? Ahhh, but there my cunning plan falls down, because you have to spit it out…..and spitting isn’t so sexy.

Seeing as how I wake up next to a dog every morning, I’m not sure you want my answer to this!

Definitely brush my teeth! The hubby gets a kick out of that every time. Before things get too far along, I’m usually saying “let’s go brush our teeth first.” LOL!

I just about spit my coffee all over my computer screen I’m laughing so hard over this post and the replys! smiles*
Maybe a closed lip kiss and then off to brush my teeth. Who am I kiding I would problably faint if someone besides my husband was in bed with me. Then there would be no need to brush anything…LOL! Hahahahaha

Listermint pocketpacks – those little thin mouth wash strips – work wonders. Orannia, you get the mouth wash effect and don’t have to spit! Keep em in a draw in the bedside table. Trouble is they are so blooming strong they wake you up with a zing and can destroy the moment……………………………..
Got the idea from the commercial where a woman is sitting on a plane and has a slimey looking guy sitting next to her. He falls asleep on her shoulder and she pops one of the strips in his mouth. That makes him wake up and stop leaning on her. Come to think of it, I could have done with them on the plane back from DC yesterday.
