Here’s a step by step guide to get you started on making that kiss a beautiful memory you and your partner will cherish for years to come.

Kissing someone you like for the first time is often nerve-wrecking and exciting at the same time. You can never be sure of how it will go; if it will be a sweet and memorable moment that you’ll tell your grandkids someday or a flop that will send your love interest running in the opposite direction. Though a good kiss, for the most part, depends on chemistry, there are some things you can do to increase your chances of having an epic first kiss. Here are a few pointers:

When it comes to kissing, the setting is everything, you have to set the mood. No one wants to be kissed when they’re not ready or by a person, they’re not into. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first date or you both have gone out a couple of times, never assume a kiss is welcome. The best approach is to prepare the way, start by picking a romantic spot like a rowboat under the stars, a candlelit dinner on a rooftop, or next to each other watching a romantic movie.

Don’t be afraid to go overboard a little, make your intentions clear. Your date should see it coming and understand where you’re going without you saying it out loud. Begin with a little flirting, a smile here and there, constant eye contact, a slight touch on the hand when an opportunity presents itself. If the other person flirts with you in return then you’re on the right track. 

After you’ve been flirting with your date for a while and they’re receptive, the next step is to move closer to them, if you are sitting side by side move closer, put your arm around the person you want to kiss. Make physical contact, touch them in a slight and non-invasive manner and watch their reaction. Brush away the person’s hair, stroke their hand with your finger, place a hand on their lap and of course keep it PG, no inappropriate touch, keep it light. If you’re lucky and they don’t pull back then they’re giving you the green light. As you start touching the person, hold his/her gaze to make your intentions are understood.

Now that the mood is set, you’ve made physical contact, flirted, expressed your affection and it has been reciprocated, and you’re both full of emotion and anticipation, now is the time for the kiss. Let the kiss happen naturally, don’t overthink it or it might ruin the moment. Make eye contact, lean in slowly, then close your eyes and plant a soft kiss on your partner's lips. 

Don’t start jamming your tongue down the other person's throat, test the waters,  take it slow,  keep your lips just slightly parted, and continue kissing the person for five or ten seconds using only your lips. At this point, there’s no need to involve any tongue or teeth. No one wants a teeth frenzy or drooling during the first kiss, not to mention a jaw lock catastrophe you’ll live to remember. To be on the safe side, keep your teeth and tongue in check, use more of your lips and don’t be too pushy with them either.

Use your hands, keep them active while you kiss, a good kiss has to involve your whole body not just your lips. You could spread your fingers at the back of your partner's neck, run your fingers through his/her hair or you both can lock hands while you kiss. Touch each other’s face, caress each other's neck and shoulders, whatever you're comfortable with just remember to keep everything subtle and delicate. You don't have to overdo it, just make sure your whole body is engaged at the moment to make your kiss a memorable one.

There’s a kiss to convey almost every emotion a person can feel, everything from a peck to a kiss on the forehead, a kiss on the cheek, and the hand right through to a passionate kiss on the lips. Whatever emotion you may be trying to communicate there’s a kiss for it, but in those moments when you’re trying to convey your passion, the intensity of your fierce and fiery feelings for someone, this is how you proceed.

To kiss passionately, don’t just jump into the kiss, take it slow, set a romantic mood and start off with a series of slow, closed-mouth kisses before gradually making your way into deeper kisses. Don’t just focus on your partner's lips, pay attention to their neck, cheeks, and chin. Breathe into your partner’s skin in order to awaken and ignite feelings of romance and sensuality.

Linger between kisses, without worrying about how long the kiss will last, take your time, a passionate kiss can make a person feel like time has stood still, so don’t worry, time is actually on your side. Always wait for your partner to reciprocate before switching things up, pauses between each kiss conveys passion. Linger between each kiss as you build up the intensity with each new kiss. Don’t forget to use your hands to make things even hotter.

When you’re kissing someone passionately, don’t let anything distract you, if you’re thinking about something else your partner will feel it. Try as much as possible to be in the moment, just close your eyes and enjoy the feeling. To communicate passion, focus is crucial, an intimate connection has to be established for passion to be felt. 

Shut down everything happening around you, wrap yourself up in your own world and enjoy the moment to the fullest. It doesn’t matter if you’re the center of attention or there’s a display of fireworks behind you, focus on the kiss and show your partner that they have you captivated  with their kiss.

True passion is sensuous aggression, turning that sweet romantic kiss into something passionate and sexy by applying a little more pressure. Be sensually aggressive, gently bite your partner’s lower lip, pull their head backward, and give hickeys. But no matter how aggressive you get don’t get carried away and hurt your partner, keep it adventurous and enjoyable. Stick to gentle bites and light squeezes as you ease your way through passionate kisses.  

Imagine how awkward it will be to kiss with your hands just laying on the side, you have to make good use of your hands, maybe pull your partner closer, run your hands through their hair, caress his or her cheek and neck, or wrap your arms around your partner in intimate surrender.

Depending on the status of your relationship, put your hands on your partner's body. If it's a new romance, a first date or first kiss, do not get too enthusiastic with your hands, keep it gentle and stick to non-invasive parts of the body. But if it’s already an intimate relationship, then, by all means, feel free to explore your partner's body as you kiss them passionately.
