resmooching

Resmooching is a term that describes the act of kissing someone again after an initial kiss has ended. It implies a return to a kiss, suggesting a desire for continued physical intimacy or affection. The term is informal and often used in casual conversation or in fictional contexts.

The nuances of resmooching can vary. It might be a spontaneous action driven by lingering feelings, or it could be a deliberate attempt to prolong a moment. The context in which resmooching occurs can influence its interpretation, ranging from playful and endearing to deeply romantic. It is not a formally recognized or technical term but rather a descriptive one that captures a specific kind of affectionate gesture. The word itself is a portmanteau, combining "re-" (meaning again) with "smooch," a colloquial term for a kiss.
