This vintage tutorial from Life Magazine cracks us up!
A lot of people have been laughing about how we don’t need silly tutorials like this anymore, but um, I kind of think we do! I can’t tell you how many dudes (especially guys in high school) are totally awkward and have no idea how to stand or where to put their hands when they kiss a girl. I’ve experienced it first-hand and heard so many stories about the most awkward dudes!
So, let’s go over the basics, ladies, shall we?
* Stand close to each other, not four feet apart as if the other person might have rabies.
* Put your hands around the other persons neck or hips, but definitely no sexy-area touching on a first kiss, and even after that, not unless you really know it’s okay with the other person.
* Try not to put the person you’re kissing into a head lock.
* If you feel the other person try to pull away, for God’s sake, let them!
Now that you know the basics, feel free to share this helpful knowledge with any dudes you know. Think of it as a public service to your fellow girls everywhere!
Do you think some people need to relearn how to kiss or that certain people need kissing lessons? What do you think about this funny old tutorial about how to kiss? Tell us in the comments!
You’ll Freak Over This Girl’s First Kiss Story
New Survey!
New Survey!
my first kiss sucked. most do, but this was a bit different. he had been going on and on about how i never kissed him, so finally one day afterschool we both stayed in the gym after everyone else left and i practically threw myself at him, put my arms around his neck and gave him a quick peck. at the time, i didnt really know how to kiss and he did, so his lips were slightly parted while mine were just…well screwed shut like i was literally pecking him! i felt ridiculous, but eventually anyone can get it right, just takes a tutor
Hey ok so me and my boyfriend have been dateing for a month and two days he is 12 in the 7th grade and I’m 13 in the 8th grade I really want to kiss him but I’m afraid he is nervous and I’ve asked why he hasn’t kissed me and he said I don’t know I’m not ready we joke around I say he’s killing me and hell say then ill kiss you when you die of course we are jokeing but I really want him to kiss me neither of us have had our first kisses and we really want to be eachothers an edvice please?
my first kiss was awkward, i thught i knew what to do but then when i went in to kiss him i was only trying to do a peck, and he ried putting his tongue in m mouth! we tried again, and he tried doing the same thing so when pulled away he just pressed his lips to mine instead. after that a few days later we hung out a his house and we tried to make out but i was feelig awkward so i just gave him wo pecks. the day after was also a peck, but then we were at my house one day and i decided to try it, and it was pretty slobbery and he got saliva all over my chin, but it was ok cuz he wiped it away or me (aw) but i ot into it and i really liked it, and the next few times we kissed were really good, and i wish we could again :/
I remember my first kiss! I must have just turned 13 and I was hanging out with this guy and my best friend at the time (who was also a guy). I hadnt really talked to him that much but I turned to face him at one point and for some reason he just pecked my lips! The second time was more intamite and I gotta say enjoyable. I was nervous but it turned out fine. Nothing to be scared of, really.
The last guy I kissed kept biting my lips while we did. The only explaination I could find for this was a conversation everyone had been having the night before at dinner. It was something like this;
It was me, a couple of girlfriends, and maybe three guys and we were all eating pizza. The topic of kissing came up and us girls went around the table talking about what we liked and didn’t like in kissing. Someone brought up lip biting and we all agreed that it was the best <3
The guy, J, apparently didn't know that lip biting only involves the bottom lip. Needless to say, I corrected him. Gently though, guys don't like to be wrong! And hey, even though J was a terrible kisser that first time, I still fell in love (;
i have NEVER KISSED A BOY and i am afraid of how it will be if i meet a guy i like and he tries to kiss me i will be lost help me please
When you get into the moment of the kiss just go by what you feel. When I kiss my mind is pretty much blank and I just go with what he is doing. For a first kiss a peck is more comfortable.
My first kiss was kinda pressured by everyone around me and the guy, and we were outside walking so we backed up, and he kissed me….but what happened was that our lips touched for a second so I panicked and moved my head so his lips weren’t on mine but above them…..I really like him but it was extremely bad haha
My first kiss was so gross. My bf was a total perv and kissed me during lunch outside the school. He slobbered on my face and I was afraid to kiss him for weeks. With my current bf, and he’ll never let me live this down, I didn’t even kiss him full on the lips! I kissed more over to the right and up a bit. Four months, and he still teases me. We call it the “Rebecca-kiss” and it’s sort of our little thing so I guess it’s okay
When me nd my bf first kissed it was all cool bc we were alone and stuff.. but when we kissed again he shoved his tounge down my trought in front of his whole family and it was really akward so i barly kissed him back and now he thinks im a bad kisser
and we broke up a few days after that and i dont know how to get him back and I LOVE HIM SOO MUCH!! what do i do??
If you broke up because of a few dodgy kisses its not worth trying again
I remember my first kiss. On a bench in a park. Almost turned into a live porn. We were really into each other.
but i want to know like how to actually kiss someone. i see articles like this but what do you do with your lips? how do they lock? do you suck on the other person’s lips?
its kinda hard to explain and i hope you see this but its just kinda natural… it starts with a few pecks (one or two) then you lock lips and kinda lightly suckle on each other lips. I usually control the kiss seeing how i am a guy and most guys will control the kiss. Usually i alternate different spots on her lips lightly sticking my tongue out and touching her lips not straight shoving it down her throat. She usually reciprocates with the same thing and our tongues sometime lightly touch. When it gets more intense our mouths are somewhat held close half open and our tongues are like petting (eww) each others kinda like that and i usually make circles around hers. Its not bad to not do that and if a guy is forceful just pull away. Important tip is to try not to bite them/ let your teeth touch and if anything happens just do a little laugh and keep going. so in all just go with the flow and seeing how your a girl a guy will usually take control. when you want to stop just pull away. Also guys like to be teased so after a few kisses you can pull away and tease him a little with quick pecks.
-good luck Matt
The first time I made out with a guy was super awkward. He was my boyfriend at the time and we both had no clue what to do. He broke up with me a few weeks later and I kept thinking how it was my fault so that made me do loads of research on what to do. Then with my last boyfriend I sort of knew what to do but it still felt really weird. Although I don’t think I was that bad because we made out practically everytime we were together.
But most of the time his slobber ended up on my chin which was kinda gross but I wiped it away when he wasn’t looking.
My first few kisses were just simple pecks. But my current ex and i would always make out and he knew wat to do and i didnt so i let him control and he liked it and every kiss was amazing. Now my current boyfriend and i havent kissed yet. I hope he knows wht to do because i wont. Lol
I wish had not have my first kiss! The guy I kiss was a player! It was awful! i wish I could take all back
i know the feeling i also wish i never had my first kiss with a certain guy who is now my ex.
with my first proper boyfriend i had my first kiss with a guy and it was AWFUL it was like he was trying to eat my face… all my friends noticed it was so embarrassing. he used to wriggle his tongue in my mouth and just urrgggjfdkfhd ewewew.
when i went to the movies with him he kepy trynna kiss me so in the end i gave up and i was still watching the film with one eye!
LOL this made me laugh
oh my gawd….i’m going to the cabin this weekend with my boyfriend, and it’s friday the 13th. Just so you know Friday the 13th is my lucky day, so i wanted my kiss to happen there. But i’m really scared, because my bf never kissed and one friend of mine is just strange and i don’t want to ask her. Yeah…so i NEED some advice…PLEASE!!!! i hope you guys can help me.
hahaha i remember when me &nd my ex kissed the first time;he totally attacked my face! i was expected like a full on make out session, &nd when he was kissing me,it’s like his saliva glands went on over drive because i remember we would have to keep pausing to wipe away the slobber! it was sooo gross! but really, later on he turned out to be a pretty good kisser. Ironic? yes. but, oh well! :p
Well I’m 14 and I’ve kissed my current boyfriend tons of times. I know I was extremely awkward during our first kiss, but I think I’ve gotten loads better. I’m really worried about making out with him though. I don’t want him to be totally discusted if I mess up or something. I mean, how the heck am I supposed to use my tongue? What happens with my teeth? What if I’m a terrible kisser? Please, SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!
When me and my boyfriend kissed…It was all good. But the second time.. OH MY GOODNESS! We were at the park and in the beginning we would kiss each other but it would just be a peck. And then he grabbed the back of my head and pushed it to his face so my nose was like.. a pig nose, you know how when you make a piggy face to be funny and you pull your nose back & your nostrils are all big and stuff..well that’s how it was! -_- I didn’t say anything but.. it was definitely not what I thought was gonna happen!
