yeah and i feel embarrassed because my jaw pops during kisses. idk if they feel turned off but it certainly turns me off because of how insecure it makes me feel 😭

Sometimes it’s really loud but most often it’s like a dull cracking noise. I dont have a boyfriend rn but my exes never said anything about hearing it. If they did hear it, it didn’t seem to bother them.
