Tips for smootching success
10- The Frigid Factor - Don’t let people call you frigid if you haven’t kissed anyone before. Kissing is something you do to show affection, and if you haven’t met anyone that deserves your affection, so be it! Kiss someone because you want to, not because you are being pressured into doing it.
9- Desperate to kiss? There is no reason to rush into anything – your first kiss should be special, and with a special person. When the time is right for you to kiss someone, it will happen!
8- How do I do it right? There is no right or wrong way to kiss! It’s all about feeling comfortable with yourself and with your boy. Kissing should come naturally to both of you, and the more practice you have, the better it will get. So just relax and have fun! If you really need some advice, all you have to do is move your tongue onto his tongue-make circles.
7 - Make sure your breath is fresh! Have some mints or gum at hand prior to your crucial moment – just make sure it’s not in your mouth when the time comes to pucker up!
6 - Close your eyes! It’s great to gaze into his eyes just as you are about to kiss, but while you are kissing – close them! Some guys get creeped out by the idea that girls stare at them while they kiss.
5 - Easy does it - The key to good kissing is to be gentle. You are showing him that you like him, not that you want to amputate his tongue!! Soft lips are always totally kissable.
4 - Scared of the tongue? You don’t have to use your tongue at all when you kiss a guy – although guys themselves are notoriously fond of it. If you don’t want you guy’s tongue shoved down your throat, just keep your lips together, or slightly parted, while you kiss – he’ll get the message.
3 - Can’t get enough of the tongue? Don’t overdo it – a little goes a long way. No one likes having their tonsils examined, so keep tongue antics to a minimum. Your tongues should kind of dance gently around each other if you’re doing it right.
2- Put your hands on him! It’s encouraging and will bring the two of you closer and give you both more confidence. It lets you know you are both having fun. But keep it clean, of course!
1- Take charge! Guys won’t always take the initiative, so it’s up to you to show him how it’s done. While you are kissing, kiss him the way you want him to kiss you, and he should be cooperative! If worse comes to worse, ask him nicely not to do whatever he is doing wrong – and be careful of that all-important male ego!
