Cultural Note

In Spain, 'un beso' or 'besos' is a very common way to end messages, calls, and emails among friends and family — regardless of gender. It is not romantic unless the context makes it so. Women especially use 'bss' (text abbreviation) constantly. This reflects the Spanish dos besos greeting culture where physical affection is normalized.
