They say that absence only makes the heart grow fonder, but spending days, months, or years away from the love of your life is filled with struggles. Yes, we have video calling and it is easy to reach out to them from time to time, but the power of touch is still unbeatable.

Relationships are built of trust and love, and a major part of this is being present. Online presence is available these days, but being physically there and spending time with your partner is still the best option.

Being away from your loved one is sometimes inevitable.

People need to be away for various reasons. Some move to a new place to work, and some are prioritizing their studies. Some are just bound by their duty to the nation. Yes, the reasons are endless, and at times, people in love are really left without a choice but to endure being apart to be able to reach certain goals in life.

The biggest challenge about a long-distance relationship is not only the difference in time. The worst part is having to be far from the side of the person you always love to see and spend time with. When you are having a bad day, a simple hug or kiss can ease all the pain away, but this is impossible when people in love are miles apart.

A new invention has been making a lot of noise…kissing noises, to be exact.

Someone must have been so tired of having to endure being away from their partners and missing their kisses so much that they decided to build a kissing machine. Wait, what? Yes, the kissing machine is finally invented, and you’ll be surprised at what it can do.

The device was invented by Chinese college students, and its name translates into “Long Lost Touch” in English. The idea came from the difficulty of having a long-distance relationship when the pandemic hit, and lockdowns were implemented.

The device has a set of lips that can be attached to a smartphone.

While on a video call, the device can be plugged into the smartphone, and when the person on the other end of the call kisses the device, the set of lips mimics the kissing style and delivers it to the other person. Does it sound unreal?

It may sound unbelievable but this is true. It even makes kissing noises! It also gets more realistic because as the lovers kiss the silicone lips, they warm up to mimic the feel of human contact. How crazy is that? Or it might just be a work of genius.

The kissing device has become so popular and is selling like hot potatoes.
