Chixe

If all goes well, then why not. I've done it before. As long as both parties don't feel that it's rushed and the moment is right, I see nothing wrong with that.

I have a weird proclivity in this respect. I think my mouth is very important, because I eat with it; therefore I find kissing to be an extremely intimate act, so the answer is rarely.

Generally I don't kiss on the first date. I mean, it's supposed to be laid back. I don't want to have to worry about anything like that. There have been times where I have kissed on the first date, but not often.

As soon as I can.
As often as I can.

But seriously, I think it's a matter of personal chemistry.

If both of you have rapport, there's a definite connection and both of you are willing, I'd say, Go for it!

I kiss when I kiss. There is no rule or pattern - it happens when it happens.

Heck yeah! :)

Well, like Rich said, it depends on the vibe. If both parties are comfortable, I don't see a problem with it. There's no official rule book on dating. You just gotta go with your gut. Or go with the wine you drank too much of.

Ummm all the time?

Generally the second date onwards. Like someone said above, a first date is supposed to be casual, and in some cases about getting to know each other.

Yes and you need to get to know if they kiss well... :)

I'm with Stef. Don't waste your time on the second date if they are a drooler. Or have bad breath.

Or if they cram their tongue down your throat....blech.

You should all know I'm an amazing kisser...

Oh my dear Rich, EVERYONE say's they're amazing kissers....:)

Unlike Rich though, I have the certificate to prove it...

Oh no... That was a dream...

When I "date" I'm already friends with the guy so I don't mind kissing him. I can't kiss a stranger no matter how cute he is. I don't do intimate things with strangers, but I don't have any issues with people who don't share my view because I realize I'm the minority. :)

Good for you sweetie! Its just a personal choice....

Thank you stefani. Amazing I do a podcast about sex and relationships lol. ;)

I'm with Rich that it's not about kissing on the first date or not, it's about when it feels right. I've kissed girls on the first night we met, which is before an official date goes down. Then I've kissed girls for the first time after three dates. I think the biggest thing is that connecting with people usually doesn't fall cleanly into first dates and neither does an appropriate time to kiss someone. I'd say it's bad to have a rule that you won't as well as a rule that you must.

I agree Justin, but as a general rule, I wont go out with someone "unless" I want to kiss them... :)

Good point stefani!

Tyme, I call that sex with strangers. I'm usually not into, although I can think of 1 great exception. Oh man,....what a night that was. ;)

Friends with benefits.

Friends with benefits are pretty damn rad. Just sayin'.

I agree with anyone that said "when the moment feels right." I have had kisses on the first date, and on the other hand, it has taken me over a month for the first kiss. Depends on the 'moment.'

I have kissed on the first date, and had sex too.

does that mean he's not into me or he just didn't want to kiss? argh!

It meant he was a typical guy and probably didn't know just how appropriate it was. I'd say he was into you because he was fine with everything else before. I would say give him another chance, but make it clear you like him from the get go to ensure you both know where you stand.

A hug is a sign of respect in my book, by the way.

It's all about the vibe you have with the other person, as other people have said. I've kissed people when it wasn't even a date because it felt right.

That said, if I like a guy, sometimes it's nice to make him wait a little. Adds to the mystery. But even then, it's going to happen by the end of date #2.

I think kissing matters kinda.. guess you have to be boyfriend or girlfriend to kiss on the lips, but on the cheeks it has to be friends.. but mostly I hug my friends.

Don't set rules! Play as it needs to be.

it would always depend on the vibe of the date and the woman i was with. Sometimes there was that connection and at times there was nothing. Also depended on what as for dinner :)

Saw the topic and the first thing that came to mind was Kevin "Bloody" Wilson's "Courting Song"*... which was quite popular with the boys here in Australia back in the late '80's.

* Not actually the real title, but thought it safer not to throw around the expletives on my first day :) I'm sure you can find the lyrics if you google it.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. But I am coming to the conclusion that you've much more chance of a second date if you don't.

It's funny to read all of you. I see that finally, even if there is a sea or an ocean between us, it's not so different.

There is no rule for me too. The feeling, just the feeling :)

And for the one who understand, this is a sentence from a book i love ("Cyrano de Bergerac" of Edmond Rostand ):

Un baiser, qu'est-ce ? Un serment fait d'un peu plus près, un aveu qui veut se confirmer, un point rose qu'on met sur l'i du verbe aimer ; c'est un secret qui prend la bouche pour oreille.

Sorry, my english isn't good enough to translate it from french.

kiss when the time is right :)

I think its about habits :)

I think its about habits :)

i havent dated in 3 years... i know i have before so i would say if it felt right i would

yea i do

Sure... depends... no... why not.

I dont know about you, but I marry while impregnating over the phone. ;) On special this week for $500/ml. :D

If you like each other then hell yes!!!!!!!!
Kissing is one of the most teasingly sexy things you can do when you have only just met someone.
It does not mean you are easy you still have your clothes on!!!
You can control how it goes and leave them wanting more.

I would kiss on the first date. Why not?

I would say no. A snog shows that you've given in. A peck on the cheek leaves you longing for more.

I agree with mugambo. Also first date kiss is sort of a situation where you have given in to physical temptations. If that person is the one to be in your life then starting off physically is not that great. My opinion is from experience. But then results may vary.

I don;t usually think about it while on the date on my past dates i've always kissed on the first date, felt awkward once always ends well.

You gotta get to know a person before you start with the kissing!

I've never "dated"... but honestly, I'm with the "moment" folks.

You can't really say "yes" because if you go on 30 different dates, by your rule you HAVE to kiss all 30 of them and honestly I've hung out with some people I've REALLY liked but not had ANY desire to go beyond "hangin".

If I am really attracted to the person then the polarity is too strong and a kiss does happen..

i didnt kiss my boyfriend, of a year, on our first date.....however, on the third date i was ripping his clothes off on a beach under the stars...so...i mean...maybe kissing on the first date would have balanced things out a little....
