Be patient. There is no hurry for a kiss, especially the first kiss. Wait until the mood is right. Everyone prefers the romantic kiss - at a romantic movie, after or during an on-screen kiss, during an intimate conversation...Have fresh breath. Floss and brush your teeth at least twice daily. During the day you should chew gum, or use breath mints or mouthwash. Don't forget the breath freshener especially if you plan to kiss with your partner after eating. And of course, make sure you don’t have something stuck in your teeth.
Make sure that your lips are well moisturized and not chapped. Apply lip balm frequently and keep your lips soft.
Breathe. When you’re kissing for an extended period, it is easy to forget to breathe. Don't hold your breath. It is awkward when you have to pull away gasping for air. Breathe through your nose, and keep a normal rhythm.
Use your hands. You should always use your hands to make the kiss more romantic. Embrace your partner, cup their face very gently in your hands. Run your hands through their hair. This is very stimulating. Whatever you do, don't just let your hands hang at your sides.
Here's what you should not do:
- Don't approach with a mouth wide open
- Don't stick out your tongue
- Don’t force your tongue down your partner's throat
- Don't bite – or you could easily hurt your partner
- Don't force anything. If someone indicates that they don’t want to be kissed, don’t persist.
- Don't make groaning noises
- Don't make an awkward silence after the kiss - say something romantic
Good kissing requires practice. You'll get better as you do it more. The more practice you have with one person, the more comfortable you will feel kissing him or her, and you'll also develop a style that suits both you and your partner.
