Start Your Romance The Right Way - The First Kiss

By Marc Sandford

The first kiss in any relationship can be a time of high anxiety. It is a stumbling block for many guys, particularly those who have been out of the dating scene for a long time.

You have good reason to be anxious about your first kiss. The very first kiss is for many women, a means of assessing a man's compatibility.

How you initiate the kiss is just as important as the execution of the kiss itself. There are a number of complex cues both romantic and chemical that women pick up on.

Don't think that the first kiss is just some ritual that you have to get out of the way. The following are three tips on getting it right.

1.) Don't ask for her permission.

Of course you can't just start kissing because you're feeling aroused. You need to know when the moment is right. When there is a romantic tension and she shows signs of attraction for you, then seize the moment and kiss her.

Asking her for her permission diminishes the chemistry or "spark" of the kiss. It can cause you to appear indecisive and weak. Women expect to be swept off their feet by a confident and strong man. Now is the time, you must take charge of this moment.

2.) Recognize the all important signals of attraction.

Does she find ways of touching you such as wanting to read your palm? Maybe she will trip and hold on to you for support. Has she brushed her hand across yours?

Her eye contact with you is very significant. Is she stealing a few glances your way? Is there plenty of lengthy eye contact?

Do her eyes roam over your face? Her eyes may linger at your lips. Does she lean in close to you?

Maybe she's a little bit nervous? She may even fix or adjust her hair when she senses your attention. Are the pupils in her eyes dilated?

3.) Begin the kiss slowly, as if in slow motion.

Lean in closer, take her hand, look into her eyes and then her lips and mouth. If there is no resistance, kiss her. A variation to this is to gently play with her hair or cup her face in your hands before kissing. - 31368
