BLOG » Make-Out Vortex:

There’s nothing greater than time flying by while making out in a car with a boy. Once upon a time, after a bizarro date watching stand up comedy and a super creepy ventriloquist (are they ever anything but creepy?), I walked back to my car with the boy I’d been seeing for the past month. It was raining out so I suggested we sit in my car to be warm and wait for him to sober up before he got back in his own car.

After listening to his drunken tirade about his disappointment and disgust with the stand up comics we’d seen that night and their lack of talent/obvious ambition ONLY FOR FAME by appealing to the lowest common denominator using dick jokes and racial stereotypes, we started to make out. Finally! A tirade can only be sexy for so long before it gets BORING! and thank god, cuz the make out… it was epic! It would go in waves of silly light kissing with jokes in between, to deep intense passionate kisses. Every time we said goodbye, we’d just start kissing again.

The ONLY time I feel like I’m operating on my own timetable is 1.) when I’m on an airplane and I’m not reachable by anyone OR 2.) when I’m locked in my car/cocoon with a boy with beautiful lips who holds my face and looks into my eyes while hours fly by and all we can hear is each others breath, our lips touching, and the banter of whatever we feel like talking about in that moment. Thoughts about life, people, observations we’ve made about each other, teasing, etc.

These encounters, when you’re HAPPY to be partaking in them, don’t exist in real time. They are on another level. You have traveled into a make-out vortex. Party of two. But they DO make you sleepy for when you have to be up early the next day for REAL life. But it’s worth heavy eyelids and dark circles. That’s what coffee and make up is for. This is what songs are written about and movies are made of.

And even though the romantic magic of that night faded soon after, nights like these are to be treasured. They shape & shade your life, and make the time you spend on this planet WAY more magical than if you’d just stayed home, trolled facebook, or watched The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills…. even though that IS a really good show.

And if you’re lucky, maybe a fling that’s fizzled can at least remain/turn into a friendship. maybe even one that lasts forever. who knows? but the  the world just got a bit smaller.

not that you should/need to sexualize stuff with everyone you meet in the hopes of making a new friend and making the world smaller. not at all, JESUS, focus people!

xo/i love you

  6. More people need to recognize the importance of make out sessions…
    It’s almost as if it falls by the wayside as we grow older.
    People are always in a hurry.They stop believing..and then it’s just a memory from middle school.

    Well said, Alexi.


  12. Oh, is it wrong that I totally feel like making out with someone now?
    ;)


  13. most of my fellow guys will probably disagree, but the make-out vortex is often BETTER than the sex zone. kissing is, IMHO more intimate and so much more personal than just fucking. looking into each others eyes, willingly, wantingly tasting each others lips, knowing how much you just want to love them both physically and emotionally. am i losing it? OMG i need to kiss somebody! crazy, but all true. don’t H8. luvs y’all. ‘specially alexi xoxo


  14. You really have a way of tapping into the mind of a 16 year old girl. Well nowadays, like 12 year old girl. You know how there are old souls? Well, you are a young soul. I don’t even mean that as an insult.

    I think.


  15. I realize that was no real thoughtful addition to your post. Forgive me its 4AM.


  16. Spent the weekend in a serious make-out vortex! The best.
