How to Kiss Your Crush Without It Being Awkward
Below are some tips to help you kiss your crush for the first time!
When you kiss someone, there are a few things to keep in mind so that it doesn’t turn out to be awkward.
Make Sure You’re Alone with Your Crush
When you want to kiss your crush without it being awkward make sure you’re alone with him/her. This could be at a party or something.
If you’re out with a group of people and you want a chance to kiss them, excuse yourself from your friends and tell your crush to come with you.
Take him/her away from the group and, if you have the opportunity, lead him/her to a place you two can be alone.
If you’re not alone with your crush, you might get nervous and not know what to do so you might not kiss him or her.
You wouldn’t want that to happen.
Once you’re alone, it’s completely up to you whether to do it or not.
If you’re at a party, don’t try to kiss your crush when you’re playing drinking games or doing some other activity that requires you to be drinking or to be concentrating on something else.
You’ll have more of a chance of kissing your crush when you’re on the dance floor or when you’re on the sofas, etc.
Also, if you’re alone with your crush any awkwardness will be gone because you’ll know that only the two of you are there.
Make Sure You’re in a Romantic Environment
When you want to kiss your crush without it being awkward make sure you’re in a romantic environment.
Think about a perfect kiss you’ve seen in a movie or read about in a book.
You want it to be the same environment, the same vibe.
You don’t want to try to make a move at a karaoke machine with your crush while you’re both drunk.
Believe it or not, if you’re in a romantic place your body language will show that you’re into that person.
Sitting on the couch at your best friend’s house or meeting for coffee is not a romantic setting.
Go to a movie or dinner, or if you’re home alone, turn the lights down low and put on some nice music.
If you have your own room, even better!
It’s important to surround yourself with romance so you don’t feel so self-conscious about the situation.
You want to make it as non-awkward as possible.
You can also find a romantic spot and go there with your crush and tell them you want to kiss them and if they’re interested let you kiss them.
If they’re not interested, just apologize and go back to hanging out without the kiss.
For example, have you ever noticed that when you’re at a romantic restaurant or just in a romantic mood that kissing someone doesn’t seem awkward?
This is because the environment makes kissing seem natural.
Make Eye Contact and Smile
When you want to kiss your crush without it being awkward make sure you make eye contact and smile.
Do not just stare.
Make eye contact, smile, then look at their lips.
Then look back into their eyes before you lean in to kiss them.
Ease into the kiss.
Try not to just lean in and give them a kiss. Make it more slow so you don’t scare your crush off.
This will make you seem nonthreatening and will also make her or him warm up to you.
If they smile back, you can take it as a sign that it is alright for you to kiss them.
Another way to ease into the kiss is by taking her or his hand and gently bringing it to your lips.
This is a very old-fashioned way of initiating a kiss and is very nonthreatening.
If you want to kiss your crush but are too scared, try getting her or him to kiss you first.
All you have to do is lean in and smile at them.
They will be curious and will lean in to kiss you.
If they seem to be turning their head or trying to avoid your gaze, stop and try again another day.
If they turn their head away, look them in the eye to see if they’re uncomfortable.
If someone is unsure, they’ll look at your mouth, then your eyes, then your mouth, then your eyes.
If that is the case, give them an inch of space to lean in.
If they turn their head again, stop what you’re doing.
After you lean in to kiss, do not pucker your lips up, just place them on your crush’s lips.
Remember to close your eyes so you don’t open them and see them.
When you are about to kiss, your crush will probably tilt their head to the side or forward.
When they do this, follow their lead and tilt your head to the side or forward.
This way, you will both be kissing each other on the lips with open mouths.
Be Cautious of Your Lips
When you want to kiss your crush without it being awkward make sure you’re being cautious of your lips.
Remember, they can be a powerful tool and can accidentally say something you didn’t intend to.
So be careful and be sure to close your mouth when you kiss.
Don’t pucker your lips out so much that your lips can touch your crush’s.
Also, don’t lick your lips.
It’s a habit that’s hard to break, but if your crush saw you doing that, they might think you’re trying to be sexy.
Don’t poke your tongue out, kiss them softly, and don’t eat them up.
If you kiss them too hard you will freak them out, so be careful.
Try not to pucker your lips so your lips look like you’re giving them a big wet kiss.
Instead, place your lips together but do not pucker, giving them a quick peck.
Final Thoughts
Kissing your crush for the first time can be nerve-wracking, but try approaching it with a sense of humor and confidence.
If you’re still having trouble not making things awkward when you kiss your crush, make sure you give them the space they need and try not to get too nervous.
Remember to have fun!
