Your bed is a logical place to make out. It’s comfortable, it’s private and if the make out session leads to sex, there will be no need for awkwardly getting up and walking to another part of the house. It’s no wonder most of us think of our bedrooms when it’s time to get busy. However, if you’ve only ever made out in beds, it’s time to push your boundaries and get frisky out in the world. Here are AM’s top places to make out.
The back seat
Unless your ride is a stretch limo, chances are your back seat isn’t the most comfortable place in the world to make out. The back seat definitely doesn’t make this list because of its comfort factor. No, the reason the back seat is one of the top places to make out is because, no matter how old you are, when you’re getting busy in the back seat, you’ll feel like a carefree teenager again. When you were younger, the back seat may have been the only place where you could get a little privacy. Now that you’re older, you’ll get some excitement out of how relatively public and risqué your back seat is.
The outdoors
When the weather is right, a quiet spot outside can be among the greatest places to make out -- you can simultaneously enjoy nature and each other. Plus, there’s the added thrill of the possibility that someone could walk by at any second. The excitement of getting caught makes the outdoors a top place to make out. So spread a blanket, look up at the stars and get close.
The movie theater
Making out in a movie theater is an art. The key to doing it without sacrificing your dignity is all in your choice of movie. It should be one that is not very popular so that the theater won’t be crowded. Find a spot near the back, preferably in the corner so that you’re not making a spectacle of yourselves. Be considerate of the other theatergoers: You wouldn’t want to sit beside two people groping each other throughout an entire movie, so don’t subject your neighbor to it either. Finally, you’ll want to make sure that neither of you have any interest in seeing the movie you’ve chosen, since you probably won’t catch much of it.
The couch
The couch, like your bed, is a piece of furniture designed for lounging, so making out on it is always a good idea. While you maintain your comfort on the couch, it’s also just different enough from making out in the bedroom to up the excitement factor. Watching TV or a movie on the couch could give you plenty of time to work up the nerve to put your arm around her -- if you’re still getting to know each other.
The swimming pool
We’re not talking about the local public swimming pool here. No one will appreciate you sucking face in front of their toddlers in water wings. However, if you are lucky enough to have your very own pool or hot tub, it can be one of the best places to make out. Water makes everything sexier and the buoyancy of being in the pool allows for more freedom of movement. Plus, you’re already wearing very little clothing. It’s not hard to see why the swimming pool is one of the top places to make out.
The elevator
Hitting the stop button like they do in the movies may garner you more attention than you’d like, but a quick make-out session between floors can be really hot. Just make sure you’re disentangled by the time the doors open. Elevator rides with strangers are awkward enough, and nobody wants to go up 10 floors with the couple they caught making out when they walked in.
The drive-in
The drive-in has served as the ultimate make out spot for young people since it was invented, since it provides an innocent excuse for parking and enough time to enjoy an enthusiastic make-out session before the credits roll. Combine this with the teenage thrill of making out in the back seat and you’ve got a tried-and-true top make-out spot.
The old reliable
Of course, that comfy, convenient bed shouldn’t be written off of your list of top make out places for good. Going to the movies is fine when you’re feeling adventurous, but when you want to experience truly uninhibited passion, there’s no better place than between the sheets.
