Pshhh I'm 18 and I kind of enjoy hickies. When you don't see your boyfriend every day, they're like little reminders of the good time you had. :D

hickeys just happen sometimes. i get them a lot and the person who gives them is never "trying" to give me a hickey. some people just have sensitive skin and get them in the heat of the moment

#40- It's also a reminder to those around you that you look unprofessional and trashy. Are you going to allow yourself a hickey when you have a job interview or a job? Or when you have dinner with your parents? You should be ashamed of yourself. We all have sex, but most adults are able to be responsible after doing it. You must be 13, like #19 and #39 said.

Well said #50. If I see any girl (or guy) with a hickey, I can't help but to think a little less of them. Sometimes they really are accidents, but everyone is always aware if their neck is being sucked on, or vice versa. To the two girls above who think there's nothing wrong with hickeys- You are absolutely wrong. They are gross and make people feel nothing but disrespect for you. If you're going to act like a 13 or 14 year old, at least get a hickey in a place no one will see but yourself.

personally im 21 and i kinda like hickies. obnoxiously obvious ones are kind of silly, especially if youre trying to be serious at to work or something. but i love the feeling of getting my neck [or anything really] bit/kissed/sucked on, and when i dont see my boyfriend for a while i get reminded of the awesome time i had getting those battle wounds ;] plus i love giving my boyfriend hickies, so everyone knows hes mine haha

I would never look at someone with a hickey and think "OMG, what a trashy immature child!" But then again I'm not shallow enough to judge someone purely on their appearance.

You're a dumbass. How does he deserve it if when his boyfriend told OP he needed alone time, all he was actually doing was giving himself an opportunity to cheat? OP's boyfriend is trashy and a sad, pathetic excuse of a man for not ending it before he went and sucked face (and other things) with someone else. He obviously had a reason for thinking something fishy was up.

Uh, I agree. I'm a middle school/high school teacher and I see kids come in all the time with hickeys. It makes me sick to my stomach. I know the 16-18 year olds are more likely to be sexually active, but it upsets me when I see my 7th and 8th graders come in with sex marks all over their bodies. The worst part is that they brag to their friends about it! Like that was the only reason they got it. For all we know they aren't even fooling around, they just want others to think they are.

to #43: Agreed!!! Seriously, once you reach a certain age hickies are just a bit immature, when you are older you have family members to impress (you don't want to be known as the ***** when your not at your boyfriends house), you have jobs, teachers (that you semi-respect), friends, classmates, general public, if you walk around with a big ass hicky on your neck its basically a huge billboard on your neck saying "I'm cheap!" or "Yes, I like to get intimate with my significant other!"

So if you have hickies you are a *****? I think that's opposite considering usually only your PARTNER gives them to you. Even if you have sex why does that make you less of a person? It makes me sad to see women commenting like this cutting others down. Should 13 year olds have them? Of course not but then why are people who like them being called 13? Isn't that encouraging it's okay? I agree hickies the size of your hand are irritating because just why? But that doesn't make them less of a person or a bad person to me.
