Your First Kiss is Something
You Will Never Forget


Whether it is your first kiss ever!, or the first time you kissed your partner, it is something that you will probably not ever forget.

The first time kiss can sometimes make or break a couple’s relationship.  Are you ready to be kissed? Is there a special someone that you like?

Boring Facts about first kisses:

A kiss may contain potentially important information about your kissing partner, says George Gallup at the State University of New York, Albany, US.

He surveyed 1041 students on their attitudes to kissing (Evolutionary Psychology, vol 5, p 612).

Some intriguing results are...
  • Women, placed more emotional importance on a kiss, valuing kisses during and after sex, and throughout a relationship.
  • Men tended to see kissing as a means to an end – sex – and placed less importance on kissing as a relationship progresses.
  • Just over half the men said they would have sex with someone without kissing, compared with 15% of women.
  • And more men than women said that a good kiss was one with tongue contact, where the partner made moaning noises.

T.M.I??

First Time KissBut Gallup also says the first time kiss a couple share could make or break the relationship.

In a separate survey within the study, 59% of men and 66% of women reported on occasion finding themselves attracted to someone, only to lose interest after kissing them for the first time.

"The complicated exchange of information that occurs during a kiss may inform evolved, unconscious mechanisms about instances of possible genetic incompatibility," Gallup says.

OK, even more stressed out now?  Relax.  Seriously, just try and relax when you are ready for your kiss.

Keep in mind that many are shy about kissing, but this doesn't mean they don't want to kiss you.

The fastest way to have a first kiss is just to get close to the person and kiss them. Sounds simply right?

First Kiss Tips 
  • Avoid kissing straight-on, noses may get in the way.
  • Keep your eyes closed during a first smooch. It will be awkward to be cross-eyed looking at them while kissing.
  • Most people consider it rude to have your eyes open during a kiss.
  • It might put the wrong message across, and make your partner think you are criticizing his/her kissing.
  • Tilt your head and lean towards his/her face gently.  If you go too fast, you could end up bashing heads.
  • When your faces are about a centimeter apart, pout your lips slightly and then part them a little bit as your lips make contact.
  • Don't try and stick your tongue down their throat or kiss them too hard or fast.
  • A kiss for the first time should be soft and slow and there's plenty of time to experiment with tongues once you've got your lip action down.
  • First kisses feel like they last forever, but the ideal length is less than a minute.
  • You don't want it to get boring — or to end up with sore lips!  Don't stare at your watch either.
  • You can gradually slow the kiss down and then finish with a couple of normal pecks.
  • There's nothing nicer after kissing for the first time than a hug — it shows the person you've kissed that you really like them.
  • Relax and be at ease about it all.  If they do not go for the kiss, accept it and don't push.
