My boyfriend has never kissed me before. I always kiss him. Should I say something?

Asked by Alexandra_tejeda (10points) June 14th, 2013

He never kisses me and my friends always confront him and say “how come you never kiss her?” and he just shrughs his shoulders. Should I tell him something?

How old are you?

You should be straight with him about this. It’s an important issue revolving around your desires and needs vs. his apparent inability to understand that. You need to know now whether he’s emotionally invested in you, as you seem to be in him.

If you’re worried about upsetting or even running him off and he winds up reacting badly, wouldn’t you rather know now than later? And if he truly does care for you but just hasn’t been able to express it, wouldn’t you like to know that?

So don’t kiss him any more! See what happens.

If you are under 18, tell him “a girl likes to be kissed once in a while, and you better learn it now.”

If you are 18 or older, tell him “if you don’t like kissing, fine, we won’t kiss anymore because I won’t be the one who starts. And kissing is important, so I might just kiss the next kissable guy I meet.”

Seriously, the dude needs to know it’s important.

As @Dutchess_III said. Don’t kiss him. Act as if you couldn’t care less. If he doesn’t react, call it quits and tell him why. Then find someone who is more easily affectionate. If you’re high school age, explain it, because he may not know how to go about it. If he doesn’t respond, let him go.

I think you should just break up with him.

I can’t figure out how you can call some a boyfriend *(which really implies amorous interest and intent) if he doesn’t kiss you.

If, when asks why, his only answer is a shrug, he is either 1) very young, 2, very confused or 3, very uninterested.

Edit; ...call someone…”

Or he does not understand (Autism)?
Or feels pressured ?
If HE doesn’t feel inclined, why make him?

what @Inspired_2write‘s said.

How long have you been dating? How old are you? How old is he?

What does he do when you kiss him. Does he just sit there like a frog on a log? Kissing is a two way street. Ask him this, “John, do you not enjoy kissing me?” If he says yes, that he does like kissing you, then ask him this, “Then why don’t you ever kiss me first?”

Depending upon what his answer is, you will probably know what to do next, either break up with him (because he’s just not that into you) or show him how you’d like to be kissed (maybe he doesn’t really have much experience and he’s uber-scared to initiate a kiss for fear of getting it wrong) or if he says he doesn’t like to kiss (some guys don’t) I think I’d look for another guy who does enjoy kissing me.

I hope you’re not having sex with him….
