Image Notes 1. Head is tilted to the side, lip is being bitten or licked, and eyes are focused on partner and soft. These are all signs that a kiss might be on someone's mind.

Once Check out the pictures below for the step by step break down of the video. 1. You are in the pre kiss state described in step 1 - your head is tilted, there is lip activity, your eyes are in a soft deep gaze and maybe there is some light physical contact. You could open or close your eyes, though if you're nervous, closed could help avoid the deer in headlights look of fear. I like to start with mine open and close them just before lip contact. 2. Either you or your partner has shown that they would like to kiss. Start putting the pieces from step 1 together. Lean in and meet your partner halfway. Begin to pucker the lips by bringing them together, pushing them out, and applying just a faint hint of suction on your closed mouth to bring the cheeks slightly in. Now is a good time to lick your lips if they aren't already moist. Keep leaning in, remembering to tilt your head until you make contact with your partner's lips. Remember not to forget about hand placement! A gentle touch to the back of the neck, the shoulders or your partners head is all you need. This can also help in guiding someone into the kiss if they are lost or are having trouble meeting you. 3. Your lips come to a full pucker position. They are soft, but not floppy. They can be fully formed and firm, but certainly not hard. This is an ambiguous state for any solid to be in - but these are your lips were talking about here - they can handle it! Make contact with your partners lips. If this is your first kiss, you don't want to linger too long, but you also don't want to just peck them and retreat.
http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Kiss/
Count "one-one thousand, two-one thousand" in your head before relaxing the pucker in your lips and beginning to pull your head away. You can hold the kiss like this for longer, but after 5 seconds or so should start think about ending this kiss. If you would like to keep kissing after that you can always lean in again and follow up the first kiss with a second, third or fourth kiss. Remember to breathe through the kiss. It's all right to hold your breath for a short kiss, but for longer ones you are going to have to breathe while you are kissing. Since your mouth is occupied, you are going to have to use your nose. Just breathe normally and continue on with the kiss. To end the kiss begin to lighten the pressure your lips are applying to your partners' and relax your puckered lips. As your lips relax they will separate and a small amount of air will be sucked into your mouth. This will create the kissing noise, or "smack" that is identified with a kiss. At this point contact with your partner's lips has ended and its time to start thinking about giving them a little space and time to reflect about what just happened. 4. Move your head back slowly and begin to relax the muscles around your mouth. You can keep your eyes closed for a bit as you revel in the kiss and slowly return to your normal un-extended position. 5. You are now in the post kiss phase and if it was a good kiss, words won't do the feeling justice. If you and your partner liked what just happened you can follow up with more, or just enjoy what the two of you shared. If it was a bad kiss, you can try to make changes and give the kiss another go. If things can't be salvaged at that particular moment, don't force it - take a break and talk about it with your partner and try again after a few minutes or another day.

You can also touch your tongue to your partners lips ever so slightly. (This is not a French Kiss - just one method of placing the tongue towards the front of your mouth so you can just lightly brush your partner's lips upon contact.)

Dec 4, 2008. 1:28 PM REPLY yea man i kno how that is. im 15 and my gf is 14. shes never made out b4 but i have a few times. christmas is comin soon so im just gunna wait for a special time to move on from the "pecking." If you never made out b4 just go for it when it feels right. since you both havent done it yet the more yous try the better youll both get at it.

U R NOT IN TRUE LOVE FRIEND..... IF ITS TRUE LOVE, BE ANYTHING IN THIS WORLD...NOTHING CAN STOP U.
RedBloom says:
ok what you need to do is. step 1: ask her to go to the movies step 2: when watching the movie tap her shoulder step 3: she will look at you with that awsome look step 4: put your hand on the side of her face, pushing it more twards your face (gently) step 5: go at her face sideways and you will both start making out.
i know you dont know how to make out but do your best.. its kinda easy. anyway you learn from your mistakes. you wil get better.. you gotta start somewhere. the only tips i can give you is to move your tongue in a circle or figure 8. NEVER suck on her tongue or just poke it out like a lizard
dcgirl says:
Dec 10, 2008. 11:28 AM REPLY aww thats so sweet kind of wanna go to the movies with you lol yes but never do the suck on face thing. when you put a lot pressure on each others face not good :)
sry says:
that a good thing to do if you never kiss a boy or a girl
dalilahxo says:
when you kiss your gf tell her that you really love her and she will tell you i love you to trust meee and then kiss her with your heart not your mind
Hellosunflowers says:
Nov 6, 2008. 4:04 PM REPLY Um, okay. I just think that you shouldn't be telling ANYONE you really really love them at 13. I know I'm being hypocritical because I did it when I was 13, but I was a hopeless romantic. It's terrible that kids are like this - it truly just leads you down a path of destruction, I know from personal experience. "Eagle King" is right, he's only a year younger than I am - has never kissed a girl, and I proud of him for it. Please don't do anything until you're sure you're ready.
dalilahxo says:
well sorryy

Nov 7, 2008. 11:28 AM REPLY ive known my gf for 4 years and im 12 i need to get my friends off my back because there all like"hey man did u kiss her yet?" i just think im to young and shouldnt be kissing at that age.
MissyMusic says:
btw, how long have you been going out? it could change things. thx :P
MissyMusic says:
Nov 10, 2008. 11:32 AM REPLY hi hiyaninjatime! (btw cool name xD) im in the exact situation, age and time and everything. my friends bug me about it too. if you think you're too young, dont let anyone push you into it! do things when you and your gf are ready to. its important to repect yourself and her; and who really cares what your friends think? you dont have to tell em anything. ;) byee hope this helps!

QuityMcQuitsfromQuitsvilleQuitsland says:
Nov 24, 2008. 1:46 PM REPLY HAHAHAHAHA! Wow! I didn't even know there was anyone these days besides children that haven't kissed someone before! Times have changed drastically! I vividly remember that all during nap time in K-5 I would sneak with the little girls in my class and kiss 'em! Haha first kiss when I was 5 years old! That was a while back though..... My how times change..... man..... I got a kick out of that, I'm sorry but I really did get a kick out of it! Haven't kissed anyone by the time you're 13? But in all seriousness don't worry about it, it's not like loosing your virginity or anything, it's more of just a mark in you life of your first kiss, just pucker 'em up and plant one! lol
Zulin says:
Dec 3, 2008. 4:12 PM REPLY Haha! I remember when I was in K, me and this one girl would share are animal crakers! She would take a bite, I would take a bite. Then at daycare I was alone with two girls so we kissed. Good times!

Nov 22, 2008. 3:00 PM REPLY ok so yeah im 15 my gf and i have been going out for almost 2 months now. last night we were walking around and we just stopped and started hugging, and then we tried to kiss and neither of us knew how so it was kinda funny, but we both had fun, we chuckled it off and hugged for 5 minutes straight. i sent the link to this instructable so the next time she and i are together we can do it right. we both utterly failed at the kiss but we still liked it. any advice?
Zulin says:
Dec 3, 2008. 4:04 PM REPLY Just hold her waist and tilt your head. Go slow. If you and her both like it then keep your heads close, look into each others eyes again, and kiss.
Softball04 says:
Dec 2, 2008. 4:09 PM REPLY Well I think you are off to a great start and you should keep it going. In the end you will kiss and when you do you will realize you both are still learning and you did great so far. :)
QuityMcQuitsfromQuitsvilleQuitsland says:
Nov 24, 2008. 1:48 PM REPLY Just plant one like I said earlier lol don't worry about it, your first kiss isn't gonna be your best kiss, just relax and go in there slowly and pucker up lol it's kind of like a natural human thing, nothing really serious if you don't get it right the first time or anything
kevinskates12 says:
well we did kiss actually that night, but it was a wierd kiss but we bumped teeth :B

Dec 2, 2008. 8:21 PM REPLY ok well im 14 and ive like never really kissed a guy before *well if u count the lil 1st grader things then yeah i have* but any ways my boyfriend hasnt kissed me yet and from wat i heard *this is from his ex* he cant kiss wat should i do =(???
Zulin says:
Dec 3, 2008. 4:02 PM REPLY Well I'm 14 too. Me and my girlfriend were at lunch today and she was sitting on my lap, she looked at me, her eyes were soft and heavy, so I kissed her. And then started making out. We've only been going out for a day. The thing is, don't be afraid to kiss someone, its not like sex were if you f*** up your screwed.

rokor says:
Dec 1, 2008. 3:42 PM REPLY I wouldnt worry too much, your not really old enough to have a REAL relationship, so just use your current one as kid of a learning block. When your around her just act normal and dont freakout.
city_girl147 says:

Nov 24, 2008. 1:50 PM REPLY Hey! I too am in love with an awesome girl that I plan on asking to marry me, she's the best! Words can't describe her! But anyway, kissing is kind of natural, there is no level of kissing, you're either good, or your not..... not a big deal
bear7887 says:
Nov 23, 2008. 9:21 PM REPLY Hello everyone. I am an eighteen year old guy. I was googling "How to block someone on facebook" when this popped up. Having been with the girl I plan to marry for about two years, I thought I would get a kick out of people trying to define "the right way to kiss." While laughing at these instructions, I noticed the medley of posts. Many of the previous posts inquire upon when to kiss, how to make out, etc.... Here's the thing dudes: most of you are under the age of 15 and most of the advice that has been given absolutely sucks. I have been dating girls for quite a while as well as counselling a lot of couples. If any of you have sincere concerns regarding relationships, go ahead and e-mail me; I'll reply within 24 hours usually. I just came here to laugh, but my heart goes out to you all. My e-mail: (bear7887@gmail.com) if you want advice that works.

Nov 15, 2008. 12:41 AM REPLY i'm 13 and i have never had a boyfriend or been kissed. i REALLY like this guy and i talk to him on msn a lot, but he doesnt like me. he thinks i'm a stalker. :( what should i do? i really want him to like me coz he is really nice. i havent talked to him properly in person because i get really nervous. he has had lots of girlfriends and has kissed them all. my best friend has had lots of boyfriends in the past and her and her current boyfriend and her kiss and hang out a lot. please tell me what to do!!!
RedBloom says:
Nov 15, 2008. 11:04 PM REPLY hey.. i know exactly what you meen. this girl really liked me and i hated how annoying she was about it she just needed to accept the fact that i didnt like her. the only advice that i can give you is, dont cling on to him. let him like you first. if he seems like the perfect guy but he is more popular and seems like the right guy just wait till highschool there are guys there just like him that will like you for YOU.
RedBloom says:
Nov 15, 2008. 10:27 PM REPLY Ok.... there is this girl i am 14 by the way. she is the MOST popular girl in the school. I'm not, I guess i am in the upper middle popularity cuz i dont really want to be popular. all of the popular kids are either pot-heads or jerks. anyway, i heard her talking behind me to her friend and she said "I like somebody" so her friend said "who". now i didnt hear anything but when i looked back her friend gave me a weird look. i know im jumping to conclusions but cmon... ive gone out with plenty of girls before its not like im unexperienced or anything. but what shud i do?? keep in mind that she hasnt really gone out with a guy for like a year.
RedBloom says:
i just dont know if she is just playing games or what.. cuz shes not a complete whore or anything.
