For instance, it’s a bad idea to kiss someone when they’re in the middle of doing something or while they’re upset. A good setting for your first kiss might be during a date or at a school dance.

Watch how they’re acting to see if they’re flirting back. If they’re looking into your eyes, smiling, keeping their body open, and talking a lot, then they’re likely flirting with you. However, if you notice them pulling away, folding their arms, or looking down a lot, slow down and give them some space.

Sticky lip gloss is often a turn off because it has a weird texture. Just use regular lip balm. If you normally wear lipstick, it’s okay to wear it when you kiss someone. However, choose a lipstick that’s long-wearing and less likely to rub off. Additionally, don’t apply it right before the kiss.

Choose sugar-free breath mints or gum because sugar can make bad breath worse. Carry a pack of mints or gum with you so you can freshen your breath as needed.

You might also try putting your arm around their shoulders. Introduce touching slowly. Start small by touching their hand, then only continue if they are smiling and leaning in toward you.

If they meet your gaze, they are likely interested in you and may be open to kissing. If they are avoiding eye contact with you, they may not want a kiss.

“Can I kiss you?” “May I have this kiss?” “Would you like a kiss?”

If they move away, they might not be interested in kissing. It’s best to back off and give them their space.

You don’t have to tilt your head a lot. Just make sure your nose isn’t directly in front of their nose.

If you stare at them during the kiss, they might feel uncomfortable. Plus, keeping your eyes open can take away from the mood.

It’s okay to keep your lips pressed together during your kiss. Don’t open your mouth or use tongue during your first kiss.

These are not the only places you can put your hands, but they’re a good start when you’re new to kissing.

It’s okay to go back in for another kiss, but it’s best to take a little break first.

You might also hold their hand or put your arm around them.

Say, “Are you ready for another kiss?” or “Can we do that again?” Only go in for another kiss if you want one. Don’t feel pressured to kiss if you don’t feel like it.

Relax and enjoy this time together. You might watch a movie, talk, or go for a walk.

For instance, say something like, “I’ve been wanting to do that for a really long time,” “That was nice,” or “You’re a good kisser. ” Don’t feel like you have to say something right away. It’s okay to wait.

Keep in mind that having a first kiss doesn’t mean you always have to kiss. It’s okay to decide you want to wait awhile to do it again. On the other hand, it’s perfectly normal to be excited about the chance to get another kiss. Say something like, “I had fun last night. The kiss was nice. Do you want to walk me home from school tomorrow?”
