Steps
Setting up for the kiss
- Ensure that the two of you are comfortable. Whether seated or standing, it's vital to have good balance, as toppling over spoils the moment.
- Move in closer, if needed.
- If your partner pulls away at this point, reconsider the kiss for another time. You're getting a subtle indication that now is not the right moment.
- Snuggle up close. Stroke her or his arm or hold her or his hand.
- Lean over and look deeply into your partner's eyes.
- Making eye contact will increase the tension for both of you.
- Tilt your head to your partner's shoulder. Smile and look both at their eyes and lips. Your partner will grasp that you'd like to try for a kiss.
- Move in and gently touch your partner's lips and start kissing.
Being considerate
- Stay attuned. If your partner makes a move first, don't panic. Just act naturally and go with the flow. To make it more special, lean in slowly and kiss for at least 5 seconds. Don't back away quickly; take it easy and smile and go back to what you two were talking about.
- Hold hands or just make a cute physical contact as seems befits the moment. For example, rest your head to his shoulder or smell her hair. Talk about what you want in a person and ask him if he/she agrees––that way, both of you will be on the same page.
- Act normally. Be cute and a little bit shy. He/she will think that you are a chilled, fun person to hang out with and will be likely to ask for a kiss.
- Take a mint and when you are ready make a move and he/she will smell your breath and will aim for your lips surely
- Wait until the date is over before trying for a kiss. That might be a perfect moment to give him or her thanks. Many a person would be expecting a kiss at this stage, making it more likely that they're ready for a kiss.
Tips
- If you are having a conversation, try not to bring up your past boy/girlfriend(s).
- Dress to impress and give your partner a good compliment, not an offhanded comment about her body or his shoes. Make it aimed towards their personality.
- If your partner does not want to kiss you, do not take it the wrong way. It simply means they're just not ready for that yet.
- Have fresh good smelling breath. Have minty breath perhaps. Or chew some parsley, which will deodorize your breath.
- Don't talk about just yourself.
- Smell good and keep clean. Take a shower before the date.
Warnings
- Do not force a person to kiss you. It your partner, does not want to kiss be a gentle-person and do not force them.
- Don't ever make out or do anything other than a kiss on your first date unless you are sure the person really likes you and will have a future with you and you don't want to feel used.
