Preparing for a Romantic Kiss
- 1Make your mouth appealing. You'll feel a lot less self-conscious about kissing someone if you're confident about how your lips look, feel and taste. Here are a few quick things you can do:
Make your mouth appealing.- Brush your teeth. Your mouth will feel cleaner overall, and your breath will be fresher. Finish up with mouthwash and a breath mint.
- Exfoliate your lips. If your lips are extra chapped, gently rub your toothbrush over them, or use a fine-grain facial exfoliator on them.
- Soften your lips with gloss or chapstick. Some girls favor light, flavored lip glosses for kissing. If you want a more neutral lip, though, go for chapstick. Whatever you do, don't wear anything too sticky.
- Don't purse your lips. Get into the habit of keeping your lips soft and slightly parted around the person you want to kiss.

- 2Open up your body language. You might be sending a "leave me alone" message without realizing it. Here's how to fix it: Uncross your arms, keep your hands away from your face, make eye contact, and (most importantly) smile!
Open up your body language.- Gauge the other person's body language. Does he or she lean in toward you, or instinctively back away?

- 3Break the "touch barrier." You'll be more comfortable and confident kissing someone if he or she has been receptive to other touches. To get started, try touching the person 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.
Break the "touch barrier.- Break the kiss barrier. If everything is going well, try casually kissing the person on the cheek next time you're hugging him or her. Make your future intentions clear by placing the kiss close to the ear or mouth and letting your lips linger for a second. This will help the other person know that the kiss isn't meant in a platonic context.
- Please note that the touch barrier is culture-dependent. In certain cultures (such as those in predominantly Muslim countries), breaking the touch barrier is a big taboo that can land you in serious trouble. Be very careful.

- 4Get caught looking at the other person's lips. Make eye contact and then move your gaze briefly down to the person's lips. Then move your eyes back up to meet theirs and smile demurely. Most people will get the hint.
- 5Approach for the kiss. 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 (but only 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). In general, you just want to position yourself comfortably and let your partner meet you. As you near your partner’s lips, maintain eye contact.
