What`s the meaning of "3 times kiss on the check"?

[Nimm]

From what i`ve learnd in some southern/eastern european countries, the girls greet/goodbye you with "kiss/peek`s" on the chins, left right ..... but sometimes they have said: "i`ll give you 3 kisses".(No, not prostitutes )

So i wondered if there is someone familiar to the custome/tradition, and know the meaning?

 

[HeyPachuco!]

Kiss on the hand - I adore you.

Kiss on the cheek - I just want to be friends.

Kiss on the chin - You are cute!

Kiss on the neck - I want you.

Kiss on the lips - I love you.

Kiss on the ears - Let's have some fun.

Kiss anywhere else - You're the best.

So, lets do the math. Three kisses on the chin should come to a sub-total of "YOU'RE FVCKING HOT", sometimes its even four where I come from.

In south and south eastern europe the normal is 2 kisses, either side. At greeting friends/family.

But i've heard that eastern europe/slavic countries do 3 kisses, one either side and then back to the same side again. Im not 100% where that is though, somebody from there should confirm.

Arabic is three kisses.
Some others too,I think Peruvian is one.

OK I know most guys don't like PUA material but I read that after they do their first kiss and they are going in for the others just push her away and say"Whoah! That's too much! Are all ______girls as greedy as you?" With a smirk.

Russians and Ukraines don't do that. Arabic countries? Depends which one. Maybe some Lebanese who think they are French. But most of Lebanon is more French than Middle Eastern. Seeing that everyone basically goes to French schools and such.

Lots of what I read on here are horrible stereotypes. So false. Here is a hint. The way you think certain places are foreign they are not. The way you think they are similar they are not. Remember that. Reason why none of this weird stuff would ever work in a non-Anglo country. Anglo cultures (those that speak English as a first language) have their very own ways of doing things. Much like Francophile countries have their own ways.

Despite what BigJimbo says, kissing the cheek is a very common practice in the Middle East. They also do the same in Central Asia, specifically Afghanistan and Iran, not sure about the other "-stans", Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, etc.

Uzbekistan does
