How
to Kiss on a First Date
|
|
|
Imagine going
on a first date and having a great time at the movies or during dinner.
After all the fun and niceties, you may come across a point in time
that necessitates a punctuation mark – a sort of closure to the
evening, a mark to show that the night was great and that you should
see each other more often.
In this culture, more often than not, that punctuation mark is a nice
goodnight kiss. Good night kisses are a species of their own. They are
so much unlike kisses between couples or between friends. They are a
sort of gauge that will, in a way tell how well you two blend together
– and could very well dictate where you are headed
to.

Step 1: Timing
The real ingredient to making that first smooch count is timing. And,
as in many other fields of expertise, in kissing, timing is everything.
This is especially true when you are taking a person out for a date the
first time. In a nutshell, you do not want to rush the person, nor do
you want to miss out on an opportunity.
Find a time when you are both comfortable. It should be an ambience and
mood that is private and relaxed. It should be a time when all the
expectations from the whole night – of enjoyment, presumably – build up
to boiling point.
While it would be quite unfair to say that you will have to rely on a
little intuition on this one, this is exactly what the advice will be.
Just keep in mind that the kiss is supposed to be the punctuation mark,
or the ellipses to the evening, and maybe even a question mark, if the
situation is appropriate.
Step 2:
Physical Preparation
You may have heard about all the cracks about nervous dater who
oversplurge on cologne and mouthwash in an effort to prepare for a big
night? Well, it is funny because it is true. Before any date, you
should be well-prepared for any contingency – and any intimacy for that
matter.
Before a big date, make sure you at least keep your hygiene up to par.
Don’t shower in cologne, if that is what you are thinking. Just keep it
clean. Enough mouthwash, your trusty deodorant, and some good
fragrance.
Don’t overdo the cologne/perfume since some people are allergic to
extreme odors, and some may be sensitive to too much cologne/perfume.
Just keep it smooth and balanced.
And, for mercy’s sake, don’t go on a garlic eating spree before a big
date – stay away from burritos for that matter. You will want to keep
your breath as fresh as a baby’s during the whole of the night. And for
extra protection, don’t forget to take some mints to keep your breath
fresh throughout the date.
And as for your lips, you will want to keep your chops well-greased for
the date to come. If your lips are chapped and dry you may want to take
preventive action and get some Vaseline or some lip balm for the job.
Step 3:
Getting Intimate
You will never get a first-date kiss going if you are not able to break
the intimate area of your date. Every person has varying ‘areas,’ so to
speak of. These areas tell you how comfortable the person is with you.
There are areas that you subconsciously allow people to approach
depending on their relation to you. First, there is the public area,
which is pretty much the span of a large auditorium.
There is a stranger area, which is the amount of space you put between
you and a stranger. This is usually two to three meters away from your
body.
Closest to a person is the intimate area which is a few feet from a
person. This is where you want to be. Just make sure you hurdle all the
other steps one at a time. Make sure that the person is comfortable as
you enter closer areas.
Only when you are able to bridge this area will you have any realistic
chance to get a good night kiss going.
Step 4: Make
it Count
You will probably only get one chance to plant one during the date.
Make it count. You don’t really have to worry about technique – whether
you are doing the right thing with your lips or anything. Just make
sure you make the whole experience count.
Make sure you have everything in the right time, the right amount and
the right way. You don’t have to make it sophisticated. Make it simple,
sincere, and maybe short – depending on the night’s experience – and
you would have probably made a memory that will last a lifetime.

a Better Kisser Today
If you have been teased one too many times about how you kiss then you
are in good company. Not too many people are born Cassanovas, and those
that are come to be where they are through practice and hard work (!).
