How to Show a Woman That You Care


Have a special someone in mind? Wish to strengthen a friendship or relationship? Follow these simple steps to show a woman that you care for her.




Steps

  1. Pay attention to her. Every time she is speaking to you, make an effort to look her in the eyes and understand what she is saying. If you do not understand, tell her. This will show her that you are listening and would like to hear what she has to say.
  2. Be trustworthy. Prove yourself to her daily. If you give her your word that you will be there for her, follow through. How can anyone care for someone they lie to?
  3. Respect her mind, body, and soul. She is a different individual. There are many paths of life and hers may be differing from yours. Accept her and cherish her for who she is.
  4. Perform random acts of kindness. Be creative. Call her at work and tell her that you are thinking about her. Paste a note on her mirror telling her that you love her. A picture is worth a thousand words, paint her a watercolor. Leave her a flower and a sincere note.
  5. Spend quality time with her. Turning off the T.V., grabbing a blanket, and lying with her beneath the stars can mean more than expensive jewelry. Diamonds may last forever, but all you have is a lifetime.
  6. Let her know exactly how you feel. Look within. Exactly what does this woman mean to you? Write it down. Give it to her.
  7. When you are away, whether it be a business trip, or a vacation with the guys, check in with her. It's just polite! Let her know that although you're having fun, she has crossed your mind.


Tips

  • Women are different from men. While a man's focus may be on the physical aspects of a relationship, showing a woman that you respect and care for the sensual things will go a very long way.
  • Never lie to her. Lying to a woman is a sure way to lose her respect.
  • Step in and help her without being asked. Show her that you are there for her.
  • Guys are actually very sensitive when it comes down to some things, so some of this may just be common sense.
  • Read an ebook called "100 Ways to Show Your Love & Affection" by Gloria D. Heffner gives great ideas to add or keep the romance, love & affection in a relationship. The ideas can be tailored to your or your partner's personality(ies).
  • Remember women multi-task (i.e. balancing work and family)
  • Turn off the TV and turn on the romance!


Warnings

  • Be sincere in all that you do. Never do something for a woman just because you feel that you are "duty-bound." Acts of kindness must come from within, never from obligation.You can do it!

How to Sweep a Girl off Her Feet

You don't need to look like Brad Pitt or drive a Mercedes to sweep a girl off her feet. Those things, by themselves, will never work on a woman who is really worth courting. Here's how to let that special girl you've never talked to know that she's appreciated, without being creepy.

Steps

  1. Strike up a conversation. If you haven't met her yet, find something unique about her or the situation the two of you are in and say something about it. If she's a friendly person this should give you enough to talk about until you can start asking her questions to get to know her better.
  2. Find something about her that is truly special. Does she have anything about her that is unique? A subtle little quirk or feature that you find endearing, but that no one else seems to notice?
  3. Let her know that you think she's special without expecting anything (a phone number, a date) in return. If this girl is really interesting to you, there should be something far from the common that you notice. If she's good looking, she probably gets several compliments a day, so offer her one that is as unique as you believe she may be, like mentioning something about her personality. Here are some examples:

    • "Hi, I don't mean to make you feel weird or anything, but you've just got the prettiest freckles I've ever seen."
    • "Excuse me, but I can't walk out of here without telling you that you have an amazing laugh."
    She'll probably smile, say thank you, look away, and maybe even blush. Remember that even if ultimately, it doesn't work out, you've at least made her day by giving her a true compliment.
  4. Offer her your company, and walk away. That is, right before you leave, give her your phone number or screen name, or offer a time and a place to meet, and let her know that if she chooses not to take you up on your offer, you'll never bother her again. Don't give her a chance to accept or reject you. Make your offer and run. Give her a chance to think about it by herself, and wonder "Hmmm...I wonder what he's like." If you do this confidently, she'll feel compelled by her curiosity to get to know you better, and she won't feel like she's being pressured or chased. Also, the fact that she might never see you again will encourage her to follow up on any glimmer of hope she has about you being the guy of her dreams.
  5. Don't look back. If she doesn't call or show up, leave her alone. She's not interested, and if that ends up being the case, don't take it personally. However, if she does call you or meet with you, you've probably swept her off her feet! The rest depends on chemistry and compatibility. Good luck!


Tips

  • Here's an example of what you can say (if you're too nervous or busy to strike up a full conversation): "Hey, look, I've gotta go, but you seem like a really amazing person, and I'd like to get to know you better. Here's my number; call me and I'd love to take you out for a cup of coffee and talk. But if you're not interested, that's cool, too. I just didn't want to let this opportunity pass."
  • For inspiration, watch the movie 'Office Space' ('Hitch' is awesome, too as is Die Hard) and study the scene where the main character goes up to the waitress (Jennifer Aniston) and lets her know that he'll be at the restaurant next door.
  • Approaching a girl while she is with some of her friends (especially girlfriends) will make the approach much more momentous. You have chosen her out of the group and this will make her feel special before you even begin to tell her why you're there.
  • The key is to make a woman feel special and appreciated, but there's a fine line between admiration and harassment. If you cross that subtle line and make her feel uncomfortable, you've ruined your chances of sweeping her off her feet.
  • If your intentions aren't genuine, and your words aren't honest, then she WILL know. It's the way of the girls mind. But even if you get the girl at first, it's bound to end in disappointment.
  • Steps 2 and 3 will probably sweep any woman off her feet, even if you've been married for 25 years.
  • Try to walk the line between a feel-good compliment and a cheesy pick up line. Be sincere about it, but don't go over the top.
  • Remember that all girls are different, and there's no one way to make any girl fall for you. For alternative takes on making a girl get butterflies in her stomach, check out the Related wikiHows below.


Warnings

  • Be honest. Girls can't stand it when someone (anyone, not just guys) lies to them. One thing girls can't stand is when guys are fake. If a guy says, "I think you have really beautiful hair," and the girl is having a terrible hair day, the guy sounds fake and just plain stupid (unless he really means it). You need to make the girl feel special, but don't just throw compliments around if you don't mean them.
  • Don't stare at her if you aren't conversing with her (no matter how beautiful you think she is). Contrary to what some may say, staring is just creepy and rude. Stick to occasional glances, and give a small smile and perhaps a wave if you happen to catch her eye.
  • One other thing to remember is that a girl is never impressed if she knows you're trying to impress her. Don't boast. Don't come off looking all proud and superior--that's the surest way to turn her off. Be yourself!
  • Some women will NOT be impressed with you if you slip them your number or screen name and run. This can either come off as cowardly or insecure, which is very unappealing to some women. Sometimes you're better off going for it and asking for her number, or maybe suggesting she try going somewhere that you go frequently, like a coffee shop with a nice atmosphere. If she goes, you'll be able to approach her a second time.
  • Don't go overboard on the compliments. If you don't know the girl really well and give her more than say two compliments it can come off as creepy or insincere.

How to Deal With a Bad Kisser


So that new guy or girl in your life is just perfect. Kind, caring, fun, exciting--he or she has it all. Except... Oh, what a terrible kisser! From the guy who draws blood with every kiss to the girl that makes that weird clicking sound when you lock lips, bad kissers are everywhere. For many of us, kissing is a very important part of a relationship and, unfortunately, the inability to deliver a passionate kiss(or worse, the ability to deliver a disgusting kiss) can be a deal breaker, no matter how great the person is otherwise. Luckily, most bad kissers can become good kissers if you have a little patience, tact, and courage .



Steps

  1. Make up a reason to get away. The rest of this article will focus on how to deal with a bad kisser that you're in a relationship with or with whom you want to pursue a relationship , but if you're just looking for something casual and that guy or girl at the bar just gave you a horrible kiss, don't mess around. Say you're feeling tired, or you have to go with your friends. You can always say, "Yuck," but you probably don't want to offend and embarrass someone.

    • Alternatively, you can pull away from the kiss, look the person in the eyes, and say something like, "This is how I like a kiss." Then kiss that person as you would want to be kissed. You may offend the person, and that's why you need a little more patience if you're already in a relationship with someone you care about, but if you want a quick tip that will either work or get rid of someone, that's it.
  2. Figure out what it is that you don't like. Before you can encourage good kissing, you need to figure out what makes a kiss good for you. This can be difficult, because we generally like different kinds of kisses at different times. If you have a hard time defining a good kiss, you probably won't have too much trouble determining what you don't like about your partner's kissing style. Think about it, and identify the real problems so you can coach your partner along. If you do end up having to talk to him or her about it, you don't want to just say, "you're a bad kisser." You want to offer constructive input.

    • Is the person really a bad kisser, or are you just used to something else? Especially when people get out of long-term relationships and start anew, they may miss the way their ex kissed them. Just because somebody doesn't kiss you exactly like your old flame did, however, doesn't mean that he or she isn't good at kissing. Keep an open mind and, as long as you're not disgusted, give it a little time. You may come to like the way your new partner kisses.
    • Look within. Do you really like the person? If you don't feel passion for a person, anything they do can seem wrong. If you're still hung up on an old boyfriend or girlfriend, or if you're just not into someone, you have bigger issues to deal with.
  3. Set a good example. Try to kiss the person like you want to be kissed. Kissing is an interactive experience, and each partner needs to follow the other's lead at some time. When it's your turn to lead, make it count. This can be an especially useful technique if your partner doesn't have much kissing experience or isn't sure he or she is doing it right.
  4. Give your partner signals. When your partner kisses you in a way that you really don't like, don't be afraid to pull away.Use body language, and hope he or she gets the hint. Even more importantly, when your partner does something you like, let him or her know. Moan softly, hold them closer, melt in his or her arms--send out signals that he or she is getting it right. Most bad kissers aren't bad all the time, so you should have opportunities to reward them for a job well done. Keep reinforcing what you like and discouraging what you don't, and your bad kisser may become a good kisser without you ever having to say a word about it.
  5. Tell the person what you like. Signals aren't working? Suppose you want your partner to kiss you more passionately. Try telling him or her that you love it when he or she kisses you like they really want you. Say it even if they don't actually do what you like. Just telling the person what you like will reinforce that idea in his or her head. If that doesn't work, encourage experimentation. If you see a great kiss in a movie, for example, mention that you'd really like to try kissing like that. Be as specific as you feel you need to be.
  6. Have a talk.When subtle hints fail, it's time to bring it out in the open. This is an uncomfortable talk to have, but if you care about the relationship you have to do it, for both of you. Communication is essential to any relationship, so don't be afraid to tell the person how you feel. Be tactful about it, though, and compliment your partner on what he or she does right. Don't make blanket statements. Instead, address specific issues so that your partner will know you're not just being mean and so he or she can actually work on improving.
  7. Break Up.If nothing else works, you're left with two choices: lower your standards or break up with the bad kisser. If the person is wonderful in all other respects, and if kissing just isn't that important to you, just live with it. If, however, you really need a good kisser, you have to end the relationship. If you really try to communicate your needs early in the relationship, but the person still doesn't adapt, they probably won't be responsive to your needs in other areas either, and they won't likely make a good long-term partner for you anyway. It's hard to break up with someone, but remember that you'll be better off and, hopefully, that person will also finally take the hint and become a better partner for someone in the future.


Tips

  • Be Proactive. Don't wait for months or years to address the kissing problem. The longer you wait, the harder it will be for you to bring it up and the harder it will be for your partner to change his or her ways.
  • A good way to open the door to communication is to ask them if there's anything YOU can do better or anything they'd like you to try. a) You might just learn something and b) they may very well follow with asking you the same question. Even if they don't, people are usually a little more receptive when you're not coming across as superior. Say, "I love it when you do this..." but "I'm not sure how I feel about..."
  • Maybe you're not such a good kisser yourself. At the very least, you may not kiss your partner exactly like he or she would like. Try to beperceptive of your partener`s body language and subtle hints, and be responsive. This will help you to communicate openly and to get what you want. What's more, you may be a bad kisser without even knowing it, but you, too, can break the habit.
  • The first kiss can make a big impression, and some people aren't willing to even try to develop a relationship with a bad kisser. If you're one of these people, keep in mind that bad kissing doesn't have to be a lifelong affliction if you're willing to help your partner out. If you dismiss someone because of one bad kiss, you could be missing out on a great relationship. That said, it is sometimes the case that bad kissing is just a symptom of a person who won't be a responsive, attentive partner anyway, and he or she may be just as bad at other important things as well. Try to consider how much kissing experience the person has. If you can chalk up the bad kissing to inexperience, there's probably hope, but if the person has had plenty of time and partners to figure it out, you're probably at a dead end.
  • Next time you're in front of your computer with your partner, casually decide to look at some wikiHow articles. Check out a variety of things, and then have a look at some articles on kissing, like How to Kiss or How to French Kiss. Don't let on why you want to look at the articles, and have fun reading them together, joking, and kissing. This is a great opportunity to mention things you like or don't like.
  • Encourage what you like. When you receive a particularly good kiss, pause for a moment to say so: "MmmM.. I want some more of THAT!" and "Oooo... That was soOo good! It makes me feel..." are good starters.
  • Have fun! Be playful! Kissing does not have to be a serious experience. Giving your partner an exaggerated version of his/her style of kiss may help him/her to realize what it is he/she is doing wrong and a reason for both of you to laugh which can work out to be an intimate moment, pleasant memory and a means of easing the tension of learning your likes/dislikes.
  • It might be so that the quality of the kiss varies according to the situation you and your partner are in at the moment. If your partner is shy in public, then a public kiss might not be as fulfilling as one in private. Other actions (including sex) might cause your partner's attention to be directed away from the Kiss, and thus cause it to deteriorate in quality. Either way, decide which is more important and focus on improving that aspect.


Warnings

  • Always be tactful and nice about telling someone what you like and don't like about their kissing. This can be a very sensitive subject, and your partner may become anxious or feel threatened or hurt--sometimes to the point that he or she will want to break up with you.
  • If you train someone to kiss, be sure to leave some room for experimentation. If you tell a responsive partner exactly what you like and are too rigid in this, you may find that you always get kissed the same way, which can be boring.


How to Hint for a Kiss from a Guy


In most societies around the world, it's traditionally up to the guy to initiate a couple's first kiss.If you're a girl, this takes a lot of pressure off you, but sometimes it can be frustrating if you want to be kissed but your guy is a little too shy to try to kiss you. Here's how to hint that you would like to be kissed.













Steps

  1. Be inviting.Because of respect for your wishes (and the fear of rejection) a guy generally won't try for a first kiss unless he's pretty sure you want him to. If you do, you should try to make him feel confortable and confident.Flirt with him, laugh at his jokes, smile a lot, and compliment him. If you put him at ease and let him know you enjoy being with him, he'll usually find the courage to try to kiss you.
  2. Break the "touch barrier." Touch him lightly on the arm or shoulder when you're talking. Just make it a quick, innocent touch and don't make a big deal out of it. Holding hands is also a good way to break the touch barrier. The simple act of touching can strengthen the intimacy between you and him. Sometimes a guy will break the touch barrier, and if you're comfortable with him doing so, touch him back. But don't wait for a guy to make the first move here, because girls can generally get away with breaking the touch barrier earlier in a relationship than guys can.
  3. Look to his lips. When you're alone with a guy and want to be kissed, make eye contact and then move your gaze briefly down to his lips. Then move your eyes back up to meet his and smile demurely. You don't have to be really obvious about it. Many guys will take the hint, especially if they've read one of the many articles that lists this as a sign that a girl wants to be kissed. If it doesn't work the first time, try again when the time is right.
  4. Move in. You have to be close to each other to kiss, and the less distance a guy has to travel to kiss you, the easier it is for him to give it a try. So get close. When the moment seems right, put your face close to his and look at him expectantly. If you're brave, you could try moving in as though you're going to kiss him. Hopefully he'll take the hint and kiss you, but if he doesn't you can give him a playful little kiss on the cheek.
  5. Talk about it. If the guy isn't taking your subtle hints, bring up kissing in conversation. For example, if you're watching a movie together and see an on-screen kiss, mention that it's "so romantic" or something to that effect. If the guy is really shy, you might just want to put it on the line and tell him that you'd like him to kiss you.
  6. Kiss him.There's no law that says the guy has to initiate the kiss, and some guys--especially if they've never kissed a girl before--just won't take your hints. If you want to kiss him, just go ahead and do it.


Tips

  • Send him a wikiHow article that explains how to hint for a kiss. Hopefully he'll take the hint.
  • Try smoothing out his moustache, lightly touching his lip ring or wiping away an imaginary strand of hair from his face. While doing that purposefully look at his lips and compliment them, but only offhandedly without being too obvious.
  • If the guy seems to be talking a lot, especially if he's talking quickly, he could be nervous because he's thinking about kissing you. In this case, an old trick is to tell him, "You talk too much." Say it playfully and with a smile, and maybe even briefly put your finger to his lips as though you're "shushing" him. And then kiss him lightly on his lips and pause for a moment; at this point the two of you should be really close and he will most probably initiate a kiss.
  • One way to get a guy to move closer is to pretend to shake as though you're cold. If he doesn't snuggle up to you, you then have a good excuse to snuggle up to him.
  • Don't be too heartbroken if you don't get a kiss. The guy may just not be ready yet, or he may not like you in that way.
  • Sometimes the first kiss can be a bit disappointing, especially if a guy doesn't have any kissing experience. If your guy can't kiss well, read about how to deal with a bad kisser.
  • Men are often afraid of crossing the line because they are not sure if they have read the hints right! It can be easier for all (after building up the mood!) if you are clear about what you want, no hinting, no hidden meanings etc. Put your hands around his waist and say "I want to kiss you now" or something similar.
  • If your watching a movie with a romantic point in it..and you are comfortable with the touching him, then softly brush your finger tips over his cheek bone while drawing his face near yours. make eye contact with him if possible and he should get the hint.


Warnings

  • Telling a guy he talks too much may result in you annoying him. If he likes to talk, or thought he was actually trying to have a conversation with you, and is TOTALLY oblivious to what you are trying to do, he may take offense, and think that you don't care about what he has to say. Use this technique with caution.
  • Never feel pressured to go farther than you want to go. It's OK to just want a kiss, and you can and should say "no" to anything that makes you uncomfortable. Remember also to respect the guy's wishes if he just doesn't want to kiss you.
  • If your kiss isn't as romantic as you had hoped, don't worry! Lots of people have awkward beginnings to relationships. If this is the big one, then you'll have plenty more opportunities for kissing (in other words, it doesn't have to be perfect).
  • Many guys view hints as overly complicated, especially in this day and age of sexual harassment lawsuits. Often, the best approach is to come right out and say it.


Have a First Kiss

Are you ready to be kissed? Is there a special someone that you like? If you have never kissed before, it can be a daunting challenge. This article will help you find the right moment.

Talk to the person and get closer and when you are kissing distence away stop talking and kiss


Girls

  1. Lean your head on their shoulder as if you are about to fall asleep. Look up at them - if their hand goes around to let you in, go for the kiss. If not or their eyes do not linger upon your face or mouth, they are not ready.
  2. Relax and be at ease about it all. If they do not go for the kiss, accept it and don't push.


Tips

  • Keep in mind that many are shy about kissing--but this doesn't mean they don't want to kiss you. Pay attention to body language. If you think your someone might be suffering from this ailment, try kissing them! Just be mindful of their reaction. If they pull away, or are angry, be mature about it, and don't take it personally. Maybe you should try again later
  • The fastest way to have a first kiss is just to get close to the person and kiss them. Most people won't complain. However, it is more fun if you spend an intimate evening with that person first.
  • If you don't mind having an impersonal first kiss, join in on a game ofTruth or Dare. The most popular dare is to kiss someone. Be warned though: you may end up kissing someone you don't much fancy (unless you get a friend to dare your crush to kiss you). The same is true for Spin the Bottle.
  • Don't change for them - stay the same.
  • Avoid kissing straight-on, noses may get in the way.
  • Keep your eyes closed during a first kiss. It will be awkward to be cross-eyed looking at them while kissing. Also, it is rude to have your eyes open during a kiss. It might put the wrong message across, and make your partner think you are criticizing his kissing.


Warnings

  • Make sure you don't have any food stuck in your teeth.
  • Make sure your breath smells good.
  • Watch out for mono (mononucleiosis) or HSV-1 known as oral herpes.
  • Make sure the person you are about to kiss does not have things in their teeth.
  • Keep in mind, that it might taste a bit mushy at first, but you'll get used to it.
  • Don't kiss anyone if they have a cold sore or something else around their mouth area it could be a sign of oral herpes.

How to French Kiss


You have seen it done often in the movies and probably on the street in darkened corners. The French kiss is a timeless and passionate gesture of romantic affection. Whether you live in Paris, France, or Paris, Texas, you can learn how to kiss like the French do without an embarrassing faux pas!







Steps

  1. Moisten your lips.Dry lips do not move well together. Just a light brush of your tongue over your lips will be sufficient to moisten them. In general, use lip balm regularly- you never know when someone will go in for the smooch.
  2. Angle your head. If your mouths meet dead-on, your noses will get in the way, and you will not be able to kiss deeply or smoothly. To avoid this, tilt your head slightly to one side. Make sure you do not both tilt your heads to the same side.


3.Close your eyes. As you approach for the kiss, look into your partner's eyes, but, once you are close to theirs, close your eyes. It can be a bit of a turnoff to be kissing and going cross-eyed. It is considered rude to have your eyes open during a kiss.

4.Start with a gentle and soft closed-mouth kiss. The French kiss is an open-mou th kiss, but do not lunge in with your lips agape like you're going to eat them; instead, open your lips very slowly. If you were learning to speak French, you would probably start with the basics, vocabulary and grammar, before trying to write poetry. Well, the French kiss is like the poetry of kissing, and before you can be good at it, you have to master the closed-mouth kiss. Even after you have added French kissing to your romantic repertoire, it is usually better to start a kiss with closed lips.





5.Go Dutch on the decision to French. Kissing should be a shared decision. You need to have permission to French kiss someone, but when your lips are locked with theirs you may not want to stop and ask, "Hey, this is great, but can I put my tongue in your mouth?". Open your

lips slowly and just a little during the kiss so that one of your lips is sandwiched between theirs and one of theirs is between yours. As you are locking and re-locking lips, brush your tongue against your partner's lips ever so slightly. This should make it clear that you want to French kiss. If your partner's tongue does not respond in like fashion or if they pull away, you will have to save the French kiss for another time when you are both ready.

6.Explore with your tongue. If you and your partner seem to be enjoying the open-mouth kiss, slowly try to open your mouth a little bit more and gently push your tongue a little farther

into their mouth. The tongue is very sensitive, and the mere act of touching your partner's tongue with your own will be very pleasant and stimulating for each of you. Do not stick your tongue too far into the mouth, as this can be a big turn-off. Instead, just gently and playfully touch tongues. As a guy, when you are starting to french kiss, touch your tongue to hers very lightly.If she wants more, she will come and get it.


7.Go slow. Passionate kisses are good sometimes, but to really enjoy a French kiss, you must take it slow. Do not hurry and take time to explore each other's mouths.

8.Mix it up. Kisses are like snowflakes: no two are exactly the same. Once you finally feel comfortable French kissing someone, it is tempting to try to do the same thing every time. Add variety. Sometimes kiss deeper, for example, and other times pay more attention to the lips than the tongue. Hold the kiss longer or shorter and explore the art of kissing. When something feels good for each of you, do not abandon it for the sake of variety
9. Read Body Language.Everybody kisses a little differently, and each person enjoys different things in a kiss - there is no "right" way to kiss. What separates good kissers from bad is an ability to read a partner's body language and be responsive to their partner. Of course if your partner pulls away or seems uncomfortable at any time, understand that you have to slow it down. Listen for cues that tell how much your partner is enjoying a particular kissing maneuver. If you hear a sigh or moan, or they begin kissing you back with increased intensity, realize that they are responding with fervor.

10.Develop your style. Good French kissing, like good kissing of any kind, requires practice. You will get better as you do it more. In addition, the more practice you have with one person, the more comfortable you will feel kissing them and developing a style that suits both of you





Tips

  • Breathe!Forgetting to breathe is probably the most common French kissing error. Do not hold your breath—everybody needs to breathe, and it is a lot more awkward when you have to pull away gasping for air than if you're breathing normally. Breathe through your nose, and try to keep a normal rhythm. As you and your partner grow comfortable with the kiss, you can try breathing through your mouth a little: sharing breaths as well can be romantic (but not everybody likes it).
  • Freshen Your breath.You never want to have bad breath when you are about to kiss someone, whether the kiss is a French kiss or not. Because your mouth will be open in a French kiss, fresh breath is especially important. Practice good dental hygiene. Carry mints with you if you think there is even so much as a hint of a chance you might kiss. Avoid foods that leave an unpleasant aftertaste or residue, particularly garlic, onions, milk, and corn.
  • Teeth are a sensitive subject. You definitely do not want to bump teeth with each other. It is not only awkward, but can hurt as well. It might inevitably happen at times, so do not worry when it does. You may want to try rubbing the backs or fronts of the teeth of the other person with your tongue. This can create a ticklish feeling that might enhance your kiss. Not everyone enjoys having someones tongue rubbing on their teeth, and many do not like to touch teeth with their tongue.
  • Not everybody likes to be kissed the same way, so while your former partner might have enjoyed one method of kissing, your new love might not. You need to learn to read signals and adapt to a style that's comfortable for each each of you. This works in reverse, too. Just because someone doesn't kiss you like you are used to does not mean they are a bad kisser. As long as you are not uncomfortable with the kiss, try to be open-minded, as you just might like the new style.
  • Be an active partner. If someone is French kissing you and you want them to do so, do not just sit there but get into the kiss. Reciprocate their actions, and alternate taking the lead on the movements of your tongues and lips. If you are uncomfortable with any part of the kiss, do not be afraid to pull away or gently close your lips. This will give your your partner the hint.
  • There are no rules for how long you should hold a kiss. If you feel uncomfortable at any time, break the kiss; otherwise, just enjoy it until one or both of you slowly pull apart, usually together. It is extremely romantic to lightly suck your partner's upper or bottom lip as you part. You might find yourselves returning to kissing, after each of you takes a breath.
  • Use your hands. Your hands are important to kissing, and you should use them to make the kiss more romantic. Gently hold your partner's face with your hands on their cheeks and their neck, or wrap your arms around your partner in an embrace. The most important thing about using your hands is that you respect your partner's boundaries. Play with their ears or run your fingers through their hair, as this is very stimulating. The second most important thing (much less important than the first) is that your hands should do something. Don't just let them hang at your sides; it will seem like you're not into the kiss, and you'll look like an ape.
  • Talk about it. A lot of people have difficulty talking about intimacy, but open communication is important to all parts of a relationship. If you really like the way your partner kisses you, let them know. If you don't like something, also let your partner know that, but approach it delicately and compliment them at the same time on something they did that you liked. Even if the kiss goes all wrong, it can still be an intimate affair if you can both laugh about it together!


Warnings

  • To some people a hard tongue is a turn-off. Keep tongue and lips soft and supple. Think of the pressure used to lick a soft service ice cream cone, no probing with a stiff tongue unless the other enjoys it. Use variations to mix it up, as well. Now go ahead and practice!
  • You can still French kiss if one or both of you has braces, but you should be careful to prevent the braces from touching each other. Also avoid touching the braces with your tongue (you might accidentally cut it).
  • Excessive saliva can build up during a French kiss, and that can interfere with the romantic moment. Swallow periodically without breaking the kiss. If you have trouble doing that, do not be afraid to pull away for a moment.
  • If you ever feel uncomfortable or do not want to move forward with any move your partner is attempting, pull away and let your partner know that you want to stop. Be firm. It's OK to say no.
  • Try not to bite the other persons tongue.

How to Be a Memorable First Date

Sometimes people think back to a date and think he or she was really intresting or funny, do you want that person to be you? well if you do read on.

Steps

  1. Think about what makes someone come home from a first date and tell their friends, "Wow, my date was awesome! I had such a great time getting to know this person and can’t wait to see them again." While it might have been the revealing clothes they wore or maybe even their perfume, it was most likely something more than that. Things that make a first date truly memorable are often found in the mental more than the physical connections.
  2. Be a true optimist. Try and think positively when out on a first date. Ignore the fact that you prefer to date men that are 180cm or taller when this guy is only 160cm. A person’s height shouldn’t determine his level of intelligence or sense of humor. Try not to pay attention to the fact that they have brown hair when you really prefer blondes. They could turn out to be one of the nicest people you’ve met in a while.
  3. Be a good listener: On a date, a great listener knows how to keep the conversation moving with a healthy mix of give and take. The more you focus on asking the other person questions, the more you’ll learn about them. If you allow your date to really open up and tell you about who they are, it’s quite likely that you'll get the same treatment.
  4. Be flexible. When it comes to a first date, one of the most difficult parts can be simply agreeing on where to go and what to do. So you don’t really love Chinese food, and they've made a reservation at Ming’s Palace. What can you do? It’s probably not appropriate to argue on a first date. Surely there must be something simple on the menu that you could be happy with?! Try and appreciate the fact that the other person took the time to arrange everthing and just go along with it.
  5. Be yourself. This one is perhaps the most important of all the points. If you’re not being yourself on a first date, you are truly doing a disservice to the other person. They agreed to go out with you because there was something there that called their attention. If you seemed so funny on the phone, but on the date you are all stiff and serious, that’s not a real reflection of you. If you think of yourself as a silly and humorous person, don’t hide that from your date. Be yourself and let your true energy shine through. If your date isn’t interested in that side of you, then you’ll know it’s time to move on.


How to Be a Good Boyfriend

There are wikiHow articles that tell how to sweep a girl off her feet, or how to flirt, or what-not, but there are none that explain how to be a good boyfriend. This is an important skill to learn, as it will possibly make both you, and your girlfriend happier. Every girl is different. This is not a "one-size-fits-all" guide. This does however, give a good starting point for any relationship.

Steps

  1. Be honest. Being honest to your mate is very important, in a mature relationship, honesty is the best policy. Tell the truth even when it hurts! It may be difficult, but the truth will allow relationships to breathe. No matter what happens, no one can ever challenge the fact that you are truthful, which might mean that the other person also gives you the same respect. If something doesn't suit her let her know, otherwise she will not trust your opinion. But make it sound like a compliment. Suggest an alternative, and attach praise to the alternative. For example, if she asks you if you like a dress she is trying on (trying on, not already wearing at a party!) let her know that it might work, but you think the blue one is your favorite so far because it shows off her great (insert her best feature here--a feature that both of you like on her, not just you). Also, if she asks you, "Do you think I'm beautiful?" Tell her, "Yes, I think you're beautiful and no one is more beautiful than you; no one in the whole wide world."
  2. Remember that girls are often raised to be much more emotionally oriented than men. However, remember that unless your mate suffers from physical ailments that affect her mood, the mood swings that appear to be random for you may very well have significant reasons that you're just unaware of. After all, your partner is an entire person, with a lifetime of experiences, associations and memories, and emotional expressions result from a combination of factors which she may or may not be aware of. The best thing you can do is not take it personally, and try to help her discover and understand why her mood has taken a turn for the worse.
  3. Don't brush her off. People often find it exasperating when they get the feeling their partner treats them as an inferior in a relationship. Women are no exception. A lot of women have been taught that the only way to get attention when their partner is trying to ignore them is to act more emotional and be louder until the partner finally surrenders and pays attention to her, even if in annoyance. If people feel they're being given the cold treatment by people who are supposed to be important to them, they get worried. Especially as it distinguishes them from you without giving an explanation for why this disturbance has occurred. People aren't mind readers. Your girl is not likely to be able to guess that you're cranky just because she wouldn't let you do something that she felt was very trivial, whereas you found it important. If you know that your mood might lead you to overreact, simply say "I'm feeling really irritated right now. Can we talk about this later after I cool off a bit?" (Don't forget to follow through and actually give her your time later.)
  4. Communicate. Do not talk her ear off, however make sure that if you have any problems that will affect your mood, she is made aware of the reasons for your problems and mood, so that you do not appear to merely be a fickle and cranky creature. Zone out everything around you when you're talking to her. If you ask her a question, ask her because you really want to know. For example, ask her what types of movies she enjoys, or about one of her favourites. If you know it, talk about it a little bit in an honest way, what you thought of it, and make a guess at why she might have liked it. Even if you are wrong, a girl will usually love the fact that you are interested enough to try.
  5. Give gifts as a surprise. Anyone can buy a gift for a birthday, Christmas or an anniversary. Listen to her when you are out window shopping, and if there is something she likes, and it's within your price range, remember it and surprise her with it when she least expects it, for no reason at all. Or pick something up on your way home from work, and tell her you were thinking of her when you saw it. It doesn't have to be big or expensive--a book you know she will like, or a CD of her favourite band are ideal gifts.
  6. Mix things up. Go to a new restaurant, try a new nightclub or go to a new part of town. Even if you both end up hating it, it's an experience you can share and that's what it's all about isn't it? Creating memories together. Surprise her by doing something offbeat--think less maudlin and more personal. This includes anything from racing her to your walking destination, dancing without music, or even bringing her a tub of LEGOS and encouraging their immediate use. You two should grow to be comfortable with each other, and doing things together without self-consciousness. Ideally, she should never feel stupid around you for wanting or doing a particular thing.
  7. Compliment her sincerely. Find something particular and compliment her on it, but mean it. Don't just say, "You look nice". Say "That blue dress really makes your eyes flash", "Your hair cut really suits the shape of your face" or "That perfume makes me want to kiss your neck" ...and then kiss her neck! The more specific you are, the more unique and appreciative the compliment.
  8. Be a gentleman. Even the stuff that seems silly can make a great impression. Hold doors, pull out chairs, and generally treat her like a princess. No matter what the media tells you girls want, their heart will always go to the gentleman.
  9. When your girlfriend calls you or asks you to call her back, just do it. She probably only wants to ask you about your night or talk to you about something real quick. If you don't call her back, she just might keep calling which will probably annoy you. So even if it's 4:30 in the morning and you suddenly remember when you get up to go pee, then call her; she'll like the fact that you did, even if she's asleep. Now if your girlfriend calls you obsessively, that's your own problem to deal with!
  10. If you plan a date, whether you're going somewhere fancy or just to the movies and you can't make it, again just tell her. Yes she might be mad at you (more disappointed then anything) but you not calling for fear of her response will make her even more mad. BE A MAN! If you keep canceling though, yes we understand why she's mad.
  11. Show some emotion sometimes. You don't necessarily want to be all over your girlfriend or be a whiny baby but be open about when you're happy versus when you are sad. If you have something to be mad about, just tell your girlfriend. The thing about girls? They love to talk about feelings (well most of them) and they're willing to listen. Your girlfriend will not think any less of you if you show emotion; don't worry -- you're still a man!
  12. Girlfriends have a tendancy to do favors, leave notes and gifts and just be all around sweet. Yes this can be embarrassing, but realize she just wants to do something nice for you, so at least act like you appreciate it. Once in awhile make an effort to surprise her. Not necessarily with diamonds and rubies or with 100 dollar meals and fancy gifts, but with just taking the time to do something small and unexpected for her.
  13. No need to be all romantic, some of the sweetest memories will be the things that you say or where you went or what you buy her; sure that does stick in our memory but there are more important things!
  14. Don't get jealous easily. You don't want your girl to freak out if you talk to another girl, so don't freak out when she's talking to another guy; besides you never know -- it could be a brother, uncle, cousin.
  15. Don't judge her by her clothes or the way she looks. She may not always feel like spending an hour plucking, tweezing, clipping this, applying that. Make sure she knows she can relax and be herself with you. Don't make her feel like she always has to look like a goddess.


Tips

    1. Be accommodating. If there is something she likes to do, but you don't really like it, do it anyway, and don't complain. You will probably find that you enjoy doing the activity because you're with her.
    2. Most guys are unaware, but most women love guys with manners. Hold the door for her, pull out her seat, and offer to pay every time (though allow her to pay if she is insistent).
  • Playing hard to get doesn't work for most guys. Tell the girl you love that you do and keep reminding her.
  • All girls have that time of the month. Be as supportive as you can because your girl might be grumpy and/or in pain but she wants your love and you have to be there for her. Nonetheless, do not explicitly mention the time of the month to her-a girl hardly enjoys knowing that the world can tell.
  • If she is agitated, be nice to her, and don't get ticked off. Remember, she is not actually mad at you, or annoyed at you. She is just going through a hard time. Just let it roll off of you, like water off a duck.
  • Keep in mind: the road will be difficult. As in any healthy relationship, you will have your share of conflicts, some tiny, some big. Remember to be true to yourself, and try to abandon any significant selfishness. A relationship is a matter of team work.
  • Make sure you're clean and looking good...girls will notice if you put some thought into your appearance.
  • If she asks, "Does this make me look fat," and it is not flattering to her, say: "I don't think it is as flattering to your beautiful body as ___" and suggest an alternative.
  • Treat her like you normally do around your friends or else she will feel like you're embarrassed to date her.
  • Cook her a delicious meal. Any man can pay cash for a dinner at a fancy restaurant but it takes a special man to cook a homemade meal from the heart to his sweetheart.
  • Remember, friends and family can be a strong influence on someone's decisions, so make sure you are honest, open and interested in them and don't criticize or make fun of them! It's the quickest way to lose someone.
  • If you travel, stay in touch with her so she knows you haven't forgotten her.
  • When she is mad at you, kiss her out of nowhere.
  • If you are the jealous type, keep thinking to yourself: "When guys talk/look at my girlfriend, they are admiring me and giving me props". This might help quell any jealousy outbursts you may have.
  • Never use pick up lines. They are the sign of a jerk, and no girl wants to date a jerk.
  • Stick up for her! If someone(especially a male) is ragging on her emotionally, or definitely physically, be there! Get over there and even if they're a friend of yours defend her! Don't leave her feeling alone and upset.


Warnings

  • If you get caught in an awkward relationship-threatening situation, such as doing *something* with another girl without really meaning it that way, don't say "this isn't what you think" or "this isn't what it looks like". Very cliched. Hold her hand, she will pull away, then look her in the eyes and tell her you love her, and that she is the only one for you, and it really wasn't what it looked like, then explain.
  • Never cheat. It remains perfectly understandable that you'll have wandering eyes, but realize where your heart is and stick to that. One time will be enough to convince a girl to dump you.
  • Never hit a girl. Violence is unconditionally unjustified. You can hit them teasingly... Girls DO NOT like to be babied all the time and never be touched.
  • Never over-do something. Switch things around a lot and you'll keep the excitement that builds a good relationship, though don't be too inconsistent.
  • Never tell her she can not talk to her friends, even if they are guys. In fact, become friends with her friends. She will love you even more for that.
  • Give her space. She has friends, too, and doesn't want to be smothered. See above point.
  • Try not to give her reasons to be jealous. Understand how your actions might look to her.
  • Do not push her to do anything physical with you. She will most likely let you know when she is ready.
  • Any boy can wait until a girl is ready to do something physical, it takes a man to be chaste even when she doesn't seem to mind. Don't wait for her to tell you to stop: Ask her. "Is this okay?" is all it takes to make the difference between being the best boyfriend in the world and doing something you both will regret.
  • Don't be too careful! A girl will appreciate that you are considerate of her limits, but she'll also appreciate a little pushiness. Know her well enough to estimate what will and won't be okay, and if she stops you or says "no" more than once, it's a no. She'll also enjoy you being just a little rough. Pick her up, push her against a wall, pull her hair a little bit. She'll let you know if there's something she doesn't like.
  • Never hold her family's actions against her. No one can help what their family does or says. You can share with her that it bothers you what someone might have done or said but leave it alone after that.
  • Try your hardest to do your part of forgive and forget and let it be. No one likes to be reminded of their mistakes.
  • Never forget her birthday or other events she will remember. Saying "Happy birthday" does not cut it; girls expect gifts for every holiday. If you do not get her something she will remember and think you're cheap! Late is better than never. Cards are better than nothing!
  • Never tell her about something you almost did for her and then ended up not doing for whatever reason. Like saying 'I thought about getting you this gift, but changed my mind' or 'I was going to take the day off work to spend it with you and then decided it was a bad idea'. She will not think you were thoughtful, she will think you decided she wasn't worth it. This is worse than an oblivious boyfriend, because it shows you know how to be romantic and what to do, but don't find her valuable enough. These thoughts are definitely best kept to yourself.
  • Go her way but girls don't like guys who apologizes and asks suggestions from her all the time. Sometimes it's just Ok lead the way.
  • Don't embarrass her. Most girls, especially if they are teenagers, get embarrassed if you talk about panties, bras, and things like that. Remember, those sorts of things may be attractive to you, but to her they may be something she doesn't want to talk about. On the same idea, never tell a funny story about her without her consent, especially if she tries to stop you DO NOT CONTINUE. This will hurt her feelings, as it shows impressing your friends and making them laugh is more important to you than her not having to feel stupid.
  • Don't try to be perfect, just try to be YOURSELF, and noone else. She'll love you for that. If she doesn't, then she's not worth your time.

  4. Gently mix the sugar and water until it is pasty.
  5. Apply in a circular motion to lips to exfoliate.


Tips

  • Do this at night before going to bed, then brush your teeth.
  • Use your index finger and move in gentle small circles, then all the way around the lips
  • Apply your favorite lip balm afterward for extra soft and smooth lips
  • Apply a moisturizer or lip balm several times a day to keep your lips hydrated.
  • Try to use a lip treatment with an SPF to avoid sun damage.
  • Treat your lips with the same care you give the rest of your face.
  • Keep a lip balm with you at all times and apply throughout the day. Keeping your lips covered will prevent drying and flaking skin.
  • Apply a heavy balm every night before going to bed. (Carmex or another medicated brand in a tub works very well and it is thicker than most available in tubes).
  • Many skin care brands offer exfolliators for lips. Guys shouldn't be shy to try these even if they are sold by a traditionally female targeting skin care line.
  • Using harsh exfolliators too often will cause the delicate skin around your lips to peel and flake.
  • Avoid licking your lips! This can be especially damaging during cold and windy months and it will take longer for your chapped lips to heal.
  • Avoid lipsticks that are longwearing as they are often very drying. Some lipsticks and glosses have fragrances but can also dry your lips over time. Try mixing your favorite color with a hearty lip treatment such as Blistex or Carmex. Reuse the tubs and carry them with you. You'll need to apply more often than usual.
  • Apply a moisturizer for lips under your lipstick. Be prepared to reapply more often as the balm will break down your lipstick faster.
  • Use a soft toothbrush or baby tooth brush to brush your lips gently. Don't do it too often or you will cause your lips to appear dry.
  • If you have ignored your lips for a long time it may take a few weeks to start noticing changes. It takes time to get rid of old and dry skin.
  • Try a lip plumping lip treatment such as Lip Venom.
  • Lip plumping and lip treatments containing silicone are temporary solutions and won't help long term.


Warnings

  • Avoid scrubbing (tearing or small cuts could occur)
  • Sugar is necrotic and can cause damage to raw lips.
  • Sun and wind can damage lip tissues.
  • Serious lip conditions may require a visit to a dermatologist or physician.
  • Irritated lips can be caused by many ingredients found in lip treatments, lip sticks, fragrances, etc. Try something hypoallergenic if you have problems with your lips becoming inflamed or irritated. Many SPF's can cause irritation. If you are allergic to a specific ingredient and it bothers your eyes or another part of your face it may also irritate your lips.
  • Try new products on a small area to test for sensitivity. Don't apply to your entire lip area until you are sure it is safe for your skin.

How to Kiss a Boy

Be bold! Most boys like it very much if his partner takes the active role in kissing. You should make the first few moves, but make sure he is comfortable with them and with you. Just make sure you're ready for this. Remember to give chance to the guy. After the guy kisses, you can curl your arms round his neck for emotions to groom deeply. Give him the chance of first passionate kiss. Convey your emotions by your lips!

Steps

  1. Chat the boy up.Establish a sense of trust between the two of you, perhaps by telling him a secret about you that no one else knows [just make sure it isn't a secret that may turn him off or make him feel awkward or disgusted by you], or just by talking nicely to him.
  2. Flirt.Smile a lot, touch your hair, do whatever you think will let him know that you're interested and are happy around him. Hopefully, it will make him more comfortable and want to be around you more often.
  3. Be forward about your feelings for him. Definitely don't play with his mind. No one likes to be messed around. if you like him, make it clear without seeming desperate. what are you going to gain by acting excessively hard to get and making him feel like he hasn't got a chance; he'll just get tired of it an move on and you'll both miss out!
  4. Break the touch barrier. The first step towards kissing is touching. Make any excuse to touch his arm, his hands, or his face. A lot of guys love holding hands. Hugging is encouraged!
  5. Find the right moment. This is something you will feel when you know it's right. Often times this is after a nice evening and it is winding down.
  6. Start slow. If he's too shy to make the first move, give him a peck on the cheek and slowly work your way to the lips when you feel the time is right.
  7. Afterwards, say nothing and wait for the reaction. If he is surprised (or terrified) take no enemies, and kiss him again. If he is pleased, ditto. If he is angry, then abort the situation- no one would like someone to keep on trying to kiss that person if they're uncomfortable. You should be mature enough to step back. Otherwise, move on to the next step.
  8. Pull back and look down, then look into his eyes. If he liked the kiss you'll most likely kiss again.
  9. If this continues for awhile, maybe you should try moving onto a more passionate kiss. Then kiss him one last time touch his back!
  10. When you're done, laying down is one thing to do and not talk.
  11. Don't start making-out with him right after your first kiss.
  12. Guys like kissing, there's no doubt. Sometimes you have to make the first move to break that awkward silence.
  13. If he does not like you then he does not, try and get over it. Also, don't try running back to him or running after him. That won't even make him think twice!


Tips

  • The first few times that you kiss him make sure that it's not in front of a whole bunch of people--especially people that you or he knows. A lot of people are uncomfortable kissing in front of others, yet enjoy it in private. Secluded areas are an excellent place to make your move!
  • Smell great, wear some cologne or perfume but not too much.
  • Don't wear lipstick or sticky lip gloss that will make them worry they are getting it all over their face. Any simple, flavored lip balm will do nicely, especially Lip Smackers with Strawberry, and Watermelon flavors. Lip Smackers has a nice sheer color, it isn't sticky, you can get it at any drugstore and it is very kiss friendly!
  • Listerine pocket mist and strips (silent) are great ways to zap the bad breath fast. Drink water too.
  • Don't smoke cigarettes, as some men don't like that, and try to avoid alcoholic drinks. Brush your teeth regularly for the best effect, and just to be safe, always carry a breath freshener (chewing gum, mints, etc.).
  • Don't make a mess out of it. Not the first kiss. It may be unpleasant for some people.
  • Make yourself available, but don't attack him. Let him know that you're ready but allow him to go in for the kill.
  • Most guys want to kiss you. If you think he wants to kiss you, but just is too shy, go ahead and move in.
  • Make sure that you both are alone so that it's just the both of you and when you kiss it will be a little more romantic. Even if you haven't kissed before make it seem as if you have.
  • While kissing, if in the right position, touch his face, chest, or back.
  • If you don't want the guy to get to handsy hold his hands down by your waists, ute but he can't grope you.


Warnings

  • Make sure that if all you want to give is a kiss, you make clear that is all you are going to give. Set your limits.
  • If at all possible, try not to use chewing gum to freshen your breath. Chewing gum builds up saliva in the mouth which, if you've had something strong to eat or drink, can make your breath smell worse than it was.
  • If you want to show passion in your kissing do not eat the person off like a rottweiler - major turn off.
  • Accept rejection. If you are more mature about it, they may start to like you and change their mind.
  • After you kiss don't act all happy and peppy, that's a turnoff to some guys. It shows them you really haven't kissed a lot.
  • Don't act depressed or sullen after you kiss; it just might send the wrong message across.
  • Don't use a kiss to let a boy know how you feel about him. As romantic as it sounds to start a romance with a bang, if he isn't interested in one, or if there are reasons he isn't taking the initiative with you, you might end up causing some problems for yourself.
  • Don't do anything you don't want to. If he pressures you to do something you don't want to, he probably wasn't the right ONE.
  • Make sure that you don't drink milk or take any liquid medicine right before a kiss, because it may leave a bad aftertaste in your mouth.


Kiss A Girl


The main problem that a guy faces when trying to kiss a girl is knowing if she's ready or not. If she isn't ready, he will probably end up with a slapped cheek, a freaked girl or a call the next day from the girl saying that she feels uncomfortable with the relationship.







Tips

  • Some girls like a short kiss for the first kiss. Others like longer ones... see what she is doing and follow her.
  • Kissing during an on screen kiss during a movie can sometimes be a good idea. Try doing it when you feel the tension has sufficiently mounted. Also, it's usually okay to go in for the kiss if you catch her looking at you during the movie.
  • Look at the how to kiss a boy section-it has the signals that a girl wants to kiss you, like looking at your lips.
  • It is probably best done in a private place, so that you two feel more comfortable.
  • Offering to do it in a bed may make people uncomfortable, and they may feel pressured.
  • You can put on some music to set the mood.
  • You could try candles - they set a passionate mood. But be careful: don't overdo it! Girls like you for who you are, so be yourself! There is also the threat of a fire.
  • Discussing what you and your partner like and dislike helps a lot when heading towards kissing.
  • Make sure your breath smells good, clean -- use mints if you need to. (Note: sometimes the mints may not be enough. In that case, try using a little peroxide before you brush -- don't forget your tongue. And make sure to floss regularly. Most of the time, these steps can eliminate the need for gum or mints.)
  • If you have braces, make sure they're clean.
  • Talk to her while kissing each other. Girls like it if you whisper nice things. For example you can say something like: "You're beautiful" or "I dreamed of kissing you since I saw you the first time." You may want to come up with your own, because girls may think its cheesy if you have it rehearsed and practice talking while kissing: It´s important that your lips don't lose contact with hers while talking.
  • Put your strong hand pointer finger under her chin. Tell her she's amazing, and lean in with a slight smirk.
  • Don't come across as someone that just wants her in bed. Ever. Unless she has that kind of reputation. It all depends.
  • Asking a girl if you can kiss her also works, because you make it a simple question with a yes or no answer and no complications. Say something like " I'd like to kiss you (name)"
  • Slide your lips across hers a few times, without actually kissing her. This will drive her insane and make her extremly passionate when you finally do kiss her.
  • During a pause, smile at her and laugh softly. Girls love this.


Warnings

  • If your girlfriend is tired or not in the passionate mood, don't start the whole heavy breathing kissing thing because she may think you are a lust hungry freak.
  • Think before you kiss on a first date. Rushing doesn't do anyone any good. Take it easy.
  • Remember, friendship first, then love. But be careful to not get stuck in the "Friend's Box" where she doesn't know that you "like her".
  • Don't lower your hands too far down if she's not comfortable with it. If you have before and she didn't say anything, chances are she likes it.
  • Don't try to go in for a French kiss too quickly—sometimes this can startle a girl and make her feel pressured.
  • If she pulls away or wants to stop, do not go for more. It makes her uncomfortable and that's bad.
  • Don't force her into anything. If she says no, then stop, and she will be cool.
  • Don't talk smack about her friends or close guy friends. She'll tell them.
  • If she rejects you about anything, go with it. Don't run crying. Seriously, guys don't do that.
  • Do not use gum to freshen up your breath. It builds up saliva in your mouth, which makes your breath worse.
  • Please, don't do the "you paint it on and I take it off" when she's wearing lip gloss until you've been together for at least... 1 month. It comes across as really cool.
  • If you lean forward, but she turns away, dont kiss her. It makes you look desperate.


How to Kiss


A kiss is one of the most intimate and sensuous things you can experience with another person. Unfortunately, while there’s no “right” way to kiss, many people experience anxiety about kissing or don’t know how to ask for a kiss. Fear not! Whether you’re getting ready for your first kiss, or you’re an experienced kisser and just want to improve your game for your first kiss with a new partner, you’ve come to the right place.






Steps

  1. Be Kissable.Use lip balm, especially if your lips tend to get dry and chapped. soft lips are simply more inviting. Most importantly, nobody wants to kiss someone with a stinky mouth, so carry some breath mints or gum with you, especially if you’re going out on a date. Breath mints are preferable, because you can use them in a pinch and not have to worry about getting rid of them. Also be sure to stay well hydrated; a dry mouth usually will smell worse. Of course, make sure you don’t have anything stuck in your teeth, either.
  2. Test the waters. Pay attention to signals that the other person is into you and is ready for a kiss. Does he or she seem comfortable touching you. Do they brush up against you or frequently enter your personal space with playful, innocent touches. Has the subject of kissing or love come up in conversation? If you haven’t noticed any of these signals, but the person does seem “into you,” try discreetly and innocently breaking the touch barrier (guys will generally be very receptive to this, many girls will not) or bringing up kissing when you’re talking. The key is to be subtle and to watch the other person’s reaction.
  3. Wait for the right moment. There’s usually no hurry for a kiss, especially a first kiss with someone, so be patient and wait until the mood is right. Some good times are at a romantic movie after or during an onscreen kiss, walking in the moonlight, or during a particularly intimate conversation. Wait until the two of you are alone so that the other person will feel more comfortable and so that nobody will see if your attempt to kiss is rejected.
  4. Get permission for the kiss. You usually don’t have to ask if you can kiss someone, but you do need to make sure your partner is willing to kiss you. The easiest way, of course, is to ask, but it just makes things awkward so don't . Ask “May I kiss you?” or say “I’d like to kiss you,” and lean in right away. Many girls (and guys) don't want to be asked: they prefer that you be confident enough to take a risk and just go for it. One way to do so is to stop whatever you’re doing and silently look into the person’s eyes for a moment or two. If your partner's eyes drift down to your lips that’s a pretty good sign that he or she is ready for a kiss—chances are the reaction may be subtler, however. Another good way to get permission is to just lean in and try to kiss the person or gently pull him/her toward you for a kiss. If the person pulls away at any time, he or she is not ready for a kiss.
  5. Approach for the kiss. Approach slowly and smoothly. Depending on your starting position you may need only to turn your head, or you may need to lean in a bit. You may want to use your hands to gently urge your partner’s body or head into position—you just want to guide his or her movement a little, you don’t want to forcibly move any part of his or her body or hold your partner in an uncomfortable position—but in general you just want to position yourself correctly and let your partner meet you. As you near your partner’s lips, maintain eye contact. You may want to close your eyes after your lips meet to heighten the sensuality of the kiss (and to avoid staring at the pores on his or her face).
  6. Kiss gently. There are many kinds of kisses, from quick pecks to sweet,passionate kisses. There’s a time and place for all of these, but your first kiss with someone should be gentle and romantic. Don’t press your mouth onto your partner’s--just let your lips meet--and don’t try to push your tongue into his or her mouth. A soft, closed-mouth-to-closed-mouth kiss is perfect. Break the kiss for a moment, keeping your head close to your partner’s, and if your partner moves to kiss you back or seems to like it and doesn’t pull away, go in for another, longer, but still gentle, kiss.
  7. Make the kiss the reason for the kiss. A lot of people (mostly men) seem to treat kisses as nothing more than a prelude to something else, and will try to quickly move into French kissing or start putting their hands in inappropriate places. Good kissers concentrate on the kiss, and they kiss, at least seemingly, expecting nothing more. Enjoy the experience, and don’t move too fast.
  8. Let your partner participate in the kiss. Good kissing requires give-and-take, so read your partner’s body language and pay attention to clues (sighs or moans) that tell you you’re doing something he or she likes. Let your partner kiss you back, and move with him or her as long as you’re comfortable with what he or she is doing.
  9. Breathe. If you’re kissing for an extended period, it’s easy to forget to breathe. Gasping, however, or turning blue is not romantic. Take small breaths through your nose as you kiss. You do not forget how to breathe!
  10. Use your hands. While you should keep your hands polite, especially on a first kiss, you don’t necessarily want them just dangling at your sides. Embrace your partner, cup his or her face very gently in your hands, or run your hands through his or her hair. Another turn on for the first kiss is to gently caress their shoulder while you kiss. It shows you are comfortable with him/her. Don't forget your manners.





























Tips

  • Be polite and patient. Don't expect a kiss on the first date. If you act polite, your partner might go out with you again and then you might get a kiss once he or she is more comfortable with you. That said, as you get a little older, people become more comfortable with kissing and it’s polite to gently try to kiss your partner if your date has gone well. If you don’t, he or she might think you’re not interested. Just keep in mind that trying to kiss someone is not the same as expecting to kiss someone. If your partner isn’t into it, politely respect that.
  • Experiment. Over time, you’ll want to try a variety of different kisses for different moods and times. Change it up to keep things interesting. For more information see the related wikiHow on how to French kiss and how to kiss passionately.
  • There are a lot of fish in the sea. You may get turned down a lot, but don’t take it personally.
  • Learn from your mistakes if you can - sometimes the timing is bad or the approach too forceful - and approach your next opportunity confidently.
  • Make sure your hair is out of your face.
  • If you have glasses, be careful not to poke their eyes out by accident or anything. Take contacts into consideration if you have them, if not, just, be, careful.
  • BE IN THE MOMENT. You will not kiss as well if your mind is somewhere else. For example, when kissing, try to avoid thoughts like "What is he/she thinking about?", "Do I look okay tonight?", or anything else. Basically try not to be too self-conscious, or have ANY thoughts outside the kiss if you can help it. Instead, concentrate on the way the other person's lips feel against yours.
  • PAY ATTENTION. Are their lips/tongue moving slower or faster than yours? Go with it. Respond in a way similar to the way they are kissing you. Of course there is room for you to be experimental, but you need to make a connection first. Unless whoever you're kissing is just totally soulless, you can have a good kiss with just about any one. The key is to feel it. When both people approach a kiss with this mentality the moment can be absolutely amazing.
  • Don't always try to "pretty up." The girl/guy loves you for the way you are, and you don't have to look different and pretty up for them, don't load up on make-up. Just be yourself.
  • It's okay to be nervous, but when you think there is a right time, do not wait for him/her to make the move first, take action, if you know that person is into you, they will take it.
  • If they turn away and don't accept your gesture, wait, if they know you're into them, they will know that you can wait patiently for another time of touching.


Warnings

  • Do not force anything! If someone indicates that they don’t want to be kissed, don’t persist. Maybe try again some other day if things are going well.
  • Kissing is not supposed to be aggressive, and it's definitely not a contest of who can get their tongue the farthest into their partner's mouth.
  • Don't kiss a guy or girl who has a disease or cold sores in their mouth, that will hurt you in the future!
  • No slobber! No one likes needing to wipe their mouth after a good-bye kiss.
  • Don't move to open-mouthed too soon. Let the other person give you signals.
