If you are dating, what is the best time to have that "first kiss"?

Asked by Tenpinmaster (2925points) October 28th, 2009

So hypothetically, if a guy likes a girl a whole lot and is scared to ask her to kiss him because he is afraid on what she would think, what would you say to that guy? When do you think it is appropriate to have that first kiss with someone you have been newly dating?

When the mood is right , you will know the time . You could just get it over with cause the first kiss is nothing these days .

Whenever it feels like the time. I wasn’t actually dating my husband when we had our first kiss.

First date, on the porch. It’s a classic, don’t worry you’ll be fine.

When it feels right. Go for it!

Do not let time and/or location guide you.

Just kind of sneak it in before the date really begins. Then the pressure is off to have the first kiss at the end of the date, which leads to a more relaxed date.

Don’t ask for it, just get in there! The first time I kissed my current SO was two hours after we started dating, although we had been playing around it for many weeks before that.

I think that a first kiss should just happen. If it feels like you have to force it, then the person you “want” to kiss isn’t the right person for you. For some people the right time can be on the first date, at the end of the first date or after many dates. It all depends on you level of comfortability around eachother. Personally, I like to kiss on the first date because I think alot can be said about a person from the way they kiss. :)

Immediately after the first mutual orgasm.

When I was a teenager, I constantly wondered how this feet was achieved. How do you start kissing? Do you talk about it? Do you just do it? It was the same thing with putting my arm around her shoulders or holding hands. I felt like I always wanted to do it before the girl was ready.

There were many girls I like and we just became friends even though I wanted more. Once I bicycled through the dark of the night to her house, and she came out and all we did was talk. Hell! Once, when I was in another city for work, and staying at a colleague’s house, she said there wasn’t anywhere else to sleep except her bed.

We didn’t really know each other, and that was so ambiguous. Did she? Didn’t she? I hardly got any sleep that night, but I also never touched her. To this day I’m not certain what would have happened if I’d made a move.

And yet, I did have girlfriends, and I did have first kisses with them, and truthfully, I can not remember how they happened. Well one. I liked this girl and we were on an outing club trip, camping in some state park. We’d been talking all day, and it was pretty intense, and I got that anxious feeling in my stomach that I only got with women I really, really liked.

After dinner, we were sitting around the campfire, and I screwed up my courage and asked her to take a walk. I figures that if she wanted to be alone with me, that she must really like me. So we walked down by the river. There was a light, misty rain dampening sound and making it feel like we were the only ones in the world. We stood there for a moment, and then I turned to her and kissed her, and she was kissing me back. She was a bit odd in her technique, but that would change. The important thing is that we had passed that hump.

I tell you this for a couple of reasons. First, you are not alone in not knowing. When you are young, and uncertain whether a girl likes you… well, many others have shared the same uncertainty. Second, what everyone says is true: when the time is right.

There’s no formula for knowing when the time is right. At some point, you feel enough confidence that your kisses will be received well. I can’t tell you any more. Just know that all those movie scenes where the guys just sweep the girls off their feet—pretty much fantasy. There may be a few hunks with the confidence to do that, but there are many of us who have no clue when is the right time.

If it doesn’t happen with this girl, it’ll happen with some other girl. I would focus on getting to know the girl, and having her get to know and like you. If that happens, it’s much more likely that a kiss will happen. It is traditional to give her a kiss when dropping her off after the first date, but I’m not sure what that means. A real kiss is one based on real emotions, not just some formula that you think you should follow. Follow your feelings and your perception of her feelings, and it will happen when it happens.
