After seeing the Love Bytes thread it reminded me of something my mum once said to my best friend who was sporting quite a large one on her neck (quite proudly as I remember)
"If you are going to have one of those horrible things you should have it where you can`t see it"
which as teenagers made us giggle at the rude implications.
So I was just wondering I don`t see many these days (or am I just not looking ) did everyone take my mums advice?
I also remember one girl at school having her boyfriends name across her chest done in love bites,classy bird eh?

does anyone else have any lovebite stories?

I was questioned by my Grandma years ago about 'the mark on my neck' !!

I told her I'd been hit by a golf ball...she believed me!!!!!

:clap:

What was the toothpaste and foundation concoction going to cover up?

I remember one winter going for a walk in hathersage with my mum, i had to wear a hugh polo neck jumper to cover up love bites on either side of my neck.. she commented on how pleased she was i had dressed sensibly for the weather lol!

I think every girls wardrobe had to have at least 1 polo neck jumper.Just in case.

my mum used to have a fit at me whenever I had love bites, giving me a lecture about how they can cause blood clots and kill you :?

my ex just got cheeky and left them in naughty places :heyhey: inside of leg, chest... tut tut!

Neck trapped in door
Alergic reaction to perfume
Alergic reaction to tinned meat(corn beef rash)
Mates twisted skin

were some of the excuses used!!!!!!!!

Everyone's mothers must have said the same thing ....

but did anyone ever hear of anyone getting a blood clot and dying from a love bite?

This should be on the "things mums says" thread as well jayjay
:P

My sister and I have just had some nasty marks immortalised in my wedding pics - hers are from lugging a heavy sports bag and mine are from clay pigeon shooting :D

And I don't care coz I've found something new I'm good at :clap: and it were reet gud fun :thumbsup:

Anyway - I could never see the point of love bites. They only seem to be a way of marking territory, and I never fancied being treated the way a dog treats a lamppost :mad: :confused:

My mate used to say to his mum he had been hit with a golfball, had an allergic reaction to perfume, his mates twisted his skin, an allergy to tinned meat. He stopped telling lies a few days later when he died of a bloodclot.

As far as odd places go for gettin love bites I once had to explain to teachers & mates that I had fallen over and banged my chin thanx to my now ex husband
