The reason why I chose this queestion was because in the movie Nacho Libre when he writes an invite to Encarnacion he narrates the invite as xx's as kiss kiss and I always thought the other way around?

So far the answers say you are correct. i always believed it to be the other way around. here's what i found on wikipedia:
It is debatable which letter represents which act. Some interpret X as the crossed arms of a hug and O as the puckered lips of a kiss. However, the interpretation assumed in the following, in which X represents the four lips of a kiss and O the four arms of a hug, is more common.

I've always associated the X's with kisses and the O's with hugs - either way the recipient will know you mean hugs & kisses because they are usually used in combination.

Hugs are o's and kisses are x's. The way I remember is, the x is like when you purse your lips to kiss someone.

I was always so sure that O's where the kisses,but I saw or read somewhere that O's where hugs,so I guess you're right!

x is for kisses. Think of your lips crossing with another's.
O is for hugs. Think of your arms encircling your sweetie.

Other way around. O= hugs, x= kisses.

X's represent the crossed arms of a hug.
O's represent the open mouth in a kiss.
