Am I the only one who finds kissing incredibly awkward?

Post Reply New Topic

I've been watching Youtube videos on how to kiss, and I'm eager to try it out- like you say, it seems appealing in the mind but I too have had problems in the past where I wasn't doing it right- as I understand it now, kissing fully and effectively releases hormones and so forth which makes the process enjoyable and puts people in the mood for further romance- I wish you well in your future kissing- I am confident and hopeful that great kissing can be learned and enjoyed

If you don't especially enjoy kissing, well .... then you don't. You can't force it. If you've been in this relationship for two years, apparently you're doing ok without it. I wouldn't be too concerned.

kiss me baby!

kissing is only marginally fun to me. i see it as a step to doing what i really WANT to do, or something that my partner maybe wants to during more intimate acts. not many people want to skip the kissing part so i follow through with it. not very often if i can help it though.

if my partner has very wet lips, bad breath, or dirty teeth it is a definite NO (husband never does, but in the past other people did).

it has never felt easy or natural. i've (very occasionally) gotten compliments on my kissing, but it takes work and feels like work.

Kissing feels weird. I've kissed one boy a few times, and it was all wet and he'd just been eating a mcflurry so it put me off. Could just be his technique, or maybe kissing is always that weird. He says I'm a good kisser, I wish I could say the same about him.

I can totally relate. The voice in my head just doesn't shut up! I keep thinking - what should I do with my hands? does my breath stink? do I have a mustache I didn't know about? Am I doing this right?

UGGGHH! It's so frustrating, plus the sensation is odd. Not bad just weird.

Another thing, is I never know the right time. My friends all say, "It just happens" but that doesn't work for me.

Yeah, kissing's strange to me. Though sometimes I can get into it. I don't like it at first, but then I can find it very interesting for some reason. Usually I avoid kissing mouth to mouth....if that makes sense.

I find kissing a bit awkward sometimes, but it's never bothered me. I'm the kind of person who would giggle at an awkward kiss rather than be upset at my partner messing up.

My first kisses were with someone I was really comfy with, so we just practiced a lot (we were both inexperienced). But I find that the easiest way for me to kiss is this: focus on one lip (I prefer focusing on the bottom one), start with kisses without tongue that still aren't pecks, and slowly start using your tongue. Then gently use your tongue...first on the lip, then into their mouth until you are in sync so you're touching tongues. When you aren't so awkward you can do stuff like nibble on her lips. But yeah, every partner I've had was awkward to kiss at first and when we got in sync it was better. You can find a billion kissing tips online

i've only kissed one girl, i kinda liked it, pecking but the french and tongue rolling, when she did that, i had to stop, i didn't know what to think

Haha this thread has made me feel so much better :')
I'm relieved it's not just me who finds the whole thing really awkward and strange. I can't decide if I like it or not. Before my first kiss I was expecting this amazing thing where everything comes naturally and you forget everything/see fireworks etc, but then the whole time I was just really conscious of someone attached to my face and I wanted to laugh.

we all are like that it's nothing like fireworks, magical and all that...it's a relief to get through the first...but at least for me, idk if i want to again, i mean if i meet someone, who really understands me as me, a guy with AS, an aspie, and can appreciate me for it, i might

I love to do it, to be honest. In my case - especially French kissing - is based on lust rather than on love. Love is not required to do French kissing. I have been doing it with someone lately that enjoys deep French kissing (sticking the tongue out as far as you can). Both she and I enjoyed it. She starts do moan when I do that.

I never kissed anyone. I used to think kissing would be kinda gross but after listening to Miranda Cosgrove's song Kissin U least a thousand times literally while heavily crushin on her; I have a very very strong desire to. The lesson is that when you really really really like someone & they are into kissing; you might really want to
