First Kiss Dealing with the Anxiety
First Kiss Dealing with the Anxiety
by
Todd Peterson, Editor of HighWorld.com
Getting close to landing your first kiss? Are you overwhelmed with stress? If the answer is yes, then you must read this article. It will slash your anxiety in half.
1) Eliminate Expectations Dont expect to set the world on fire with your first kiss. Instead, decide that you just want to give a normal 10 second kiss. Shooting for a realistic goal will lower your stress considerably.
2) Remember that youll get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th + chance. Once that initial kiss is made, you guys will do it a hundred more times. Youll be so relieved and thrilled to be kissing, that youll want to do it all the time. So, if you screw up a little on your first kiss, dont sweat it. Youll get another chance to do it better...probably within the hour.
3) Its probably their first kiss, too Dont expect to be judged on your performance. If they havent kissed anyone before, either, you can be damn sure that theyre also stressing about it. In fact, after you guys pull apart from your first kiss, its likely theyll be so busy wondering "Am I doing this right", that they wont stop to consider whether you did it right.
4) They want you to kiss them Go ahead and assume that the person youre dating wants to kiss you. Obviously, theyre physically attracted to you. Otherwise, they wouldnt be dating you. Its only natural for them to want you in a more physical way. Of course, they want to kiss you.
5) Think positive thoughts Psyche yourself up. Think how happy youll be once you land that first kiss. Think of all the hours of making out that will be going on after you get the first kiss over with. Think how great its going to feel. Dont delay this ecstasy any longer.
6) Billions of people kiss every day A kiss is a normal everyday thing for several billion people. Your mom and dad, neighbors, and other people all over the world kiss all the time, so whats the big deal? If they can do it, why cant you? If its no big deal to dinosaurs like your parents and grandparents, why should you have a problem with it?
7) Visualize it Try to picture how its going to go down. When you go to bed at night, close your eyes and try to imagine how youre going to make your approach, how youre going to hold them, etc. The more you visualize this moment, the more comfortable and stress free youll be when the time comes to do it for real.
8) Practice it in your room...seriously Physically go through the motions that you visualized in the previous step. Practice walking up to your sweetie, practice what youre going to say (and in what tone of voice), and practice leaning in. You can even practice kissing your hand. Believe it or not, but these techniques actually work. Going through the motions will prepare you for the real thing.
