Even David Coleman, “America’s real-life Hitch,” has experienced his share of horrible kissers.

When a woman drowns your mouth with saliva, Coleman refers to it as “Niagara Falls,” and if she’s moving her tongue at the “speed of sound” it’s a “twister” kiss. The worst example, Coleman said, is when she gives you a “raw oyster kiss” as snot from her runny nose drips into your mouth.

Besides describing his worst kissing experiences, Coleman gave advice Tuesday night in the Holmes Student Center’s Duke Ellington Ballroom for students of any sexual orientation who are single, dating or in a relationship.

As a well-known “dating guru,” Coleman inspired Will Smith’s character in “Hitch” and even consulted for the movie.

“Just like Will Smith had Kevin James as a client, I have clients like that at all time,” Coleman said.

During his speech, Coleman talked about how it becomes clear whether you are initially interested in someone within the first five minutes of meeting. During early dating, Coleman said that the three greatest words you want to hear is “I’d love to.”

Sometimes when men are attracted to someone, Coleman admits that it can be hard for them to introduce themselves, as they resort to using bad pick up lines like “If you could measure milk, you’d be a cow,” or “Red rover, red rover, come here and bend over.” Forget about using pick up lines, Coleman said – a simple introduction is all you need.

Long distance relationships can be especially hard because people can force communication and grow apart, Coleman said. Having the same faith, talking through problems and seeing each other at least once every few months can help the relationship survive, Coleman said.

“I was in a long distance relationship and was recently thinking about getting back together with my ex,” said freshman English major Alex Bransky. “[Coleman] helped me realize that I will need to work a lot harder to make it work.”

Sophomore economics major Nick Pasieka said he liked how Coleman kept his attention. Throughout the night, Coleman asked the audience if his examples applied to them personally. He was also open to questions during his presentation.

“He wasn’t just talking with you,” Pasieka said. “He included you in his presentation.”
