Kissing someone you have just started dating:
If this isn’t your first date, chances are you have kissed before (if not, see the tips for kissing a crush), so a turn under the mistletoe shouldn’t be that frightening. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t special. A mistletoe kiss with a new steady can be something you will never forget. For this reason, it should be a little different than your other kisses. Holding each other close is a definite must. Start kissing the same as you have in the past. Play with each others hair or run your fingers up and down one another’s back. If you have never french kissed before, now may be a good first time. If you aren’t ready to french kiss yet, try what we Canadians call a “Quebec kiss”. This type of kiss is a shorter, dryer version of the french kiss with only a little bit of tongue playing. If you aren’t ready for that either, try spicing up the kiss with a little bit of fun, playfully tickle your partner to signal that it is over or end with a gentle kiss on the nose or forehead.
Super Savvy Tip:
Stay in each other’s arms even after the kiss is over and talk. Talk about the kiss and how nice it was, talk about the party and how fun it is, and then lean in for another quick smooch.
