<p>I had my first kiss on March 12th. It was mind blowing.</p>
<p>I'm the OP btw.</p>
<p>^ Haha congrats. I wish I could say the same. Ooc, how old are you then, given the title of this thread?</p>
<p>^ I'm twenty. The kiss was actually unplanned. It just happened unexpectedly. I'm glad I liked it or else it would've been traumatizing lol.
I could have gotten a kiss years earlier, but I was very picky and was practically looking for a guy to be my first everything and marry. Let's just say I had a VERY unrealistic view of love back then.</p>
<p>So the moral of the OPs story is that if you are a guy, you should randomly kiss girls, chances are that some of them will have the same syndrome as OP. </p>
<p>No, but seriously, take risks.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Maybe you need to get taller.</p>
<p>^ huh? lol</p>
<p>oh the OP is a girl...I assumed it was a guy for some reason....well, better late than never :)</p>
<p>I don't understand ThisCouldBeHeavn's get taller comment either...Are you saying that short girls can't get good kisses? As for the "I wish I could say the same"--I was referring to the 'mind-blowing'ness of her kiss.</p>
<p>As for height: my mommy says I grew recently =D</p>
<p>but how would you know how tall someone is online...and why would height have to do with kissing? my boyfriend towers over me at almost 6'4 and we kiss well...</p>
<p>my first kiss wasn't anywhere near mind-blowing...i was like 14 and basically bumped heads with the guy and we both laughed a little...it was so awkward :p</p>
<p>What about cut (like a rock/boss, your choice) people who just subscribe to MOB and think kissing is a waste of paper-chasing time?</p>
<p>I forgot I wasn’t in the college life forum.</p>
<p>LMAO I thought this was HSL >_></p>
<p>^ That was what I also thought. lmao…</p>
<p>Wow, I find the opinions of this thread to be very…demanding to say the least! Maybe its because I come from a more, erm, consevative area (Bakersfield, CA), but the people who have kissed someone before 18 are definitely in the minority. I know plenty of people who have never kissed someone on the lips before, up to their 20’s, and I haven’t heard anyone call anyone a loser for it. In my classes, the majority of guys have not kissed a girl, and it’s definitely not because we are antisocial losers, but simply because we have other things on our mind, not to mention the “hook up” is discouraged here and people are very careful about relationships. I myself have only ever kissed a girl on the cheek… and that is fine. I’ve already done more than a lot of people, haha.</p>
<p>Yeah. I feel a lot of elitism in tis thread. I have to say, if you call someone a loser for not kissing, that definitely says something about you.</p>
<p>I met someone on another website from Bakersfield. Conservative doesn’t begin to describe them.</p>
<p>My God, this is cracking me up. I had my first kiss at fifteen but around here that’s considered to be absolutely nunnish. As an eighteen-year-old, I’m now dealing with being in the 2 or 3 percent of our high school class that’s virginal. Yay for the post-sexual revolution generation. >_< can you say pressure?</p>
<p>I was pretty proud of myself for being “untouched by societal standards” and “making my own decisions” but I guess I’ve been poisoned by my culture, because I have to say that if you’ve never even been kissed by eighteen… Maybe put down the Nintendo or the Chaucer or whatever it is that you’re doing and, er, go to a party?</p>
<p>I’m speaking out of my own experience, obviously the whole town can’t be the same way :P</p>
<p>I generally tend to float around the AP class, where most people are really into school and religion and stuff. It’s not that we live like a bunch of Puritans, but more like there’s a bunch of preppy self righteous people…you know what I mean? You ask a girl if they’ve ever kissed a guy, and they’ll respond something like “Do I look like a slut to you?” </p>
<p>All the girls I’ve been into have been the real Christian types…where dating is discouraged and they take things waaaaayyy too slow. On the other hand, you still get kids who are like the typical high school kids and do the kind of stuff you guys are explaining. </p>
<p>Regardless, few will say anything about it if you’ve never kissed anyone. There are people that do, but these kids tend to be ******bags.</p>
<p>I’m still shocked by your description of Bakersfield. I grew up in a preppy upper-class area and no one was puritanical like that. Over half my grade took multiple AP classes and we all aimed for top colleges, overall we were a group of smart kids, but we sure weren’t asexual. i’ve heard the average age at which American teens lose their virginity is like 17 or something. </p>
<p>not that there’s anything wrong with what your describing - I’m honestly just suprised by it, is all. I guess people are just more conservative and religious in some areas, which explains it.</p>
<p>Haha, I’m going to get in trouble if anyone thinks I’m speaking on behalf of all Bakersfield. Not only am I in the most preppy upper-middle class area, but I’m also in the “smart kid” class of school. You get into lower classes and people are much less “puritanical.” </p>
<p>I couldn’t tell you why we’re like that. Religion, conservativism (is that a word?) and snobby self righteousness I guess. Even the nonreligious ones feel the same morals and pressures as the religious ones. Most of us are dead-set on abstinence and I’m going to be honest… I can’t think of a single AP student who isn’t a virgin right now, but then again, I don’t know if thats the type of thing you’d know about someone anyway. It certainly doesn’t feel puritanical to me; we still talk about the opposite sex and get into relationships, haha. Just we’re a lot more careful… although we don’t think of it that way. That’s just normal to us.</p>
<p>Your surprised at the description of my school… the rest of these descriptions shock me! According to these standards, pretty much half my class would be considered losers!</p>
<p>I was 17 and a freshman in college. I’d attended a very small k-12 school from seventh grade on, and of the two guys there I would’ve actually been interested in kissing, one had a girlfriend at another school, and the other showed some interest but graduated before I had the nerve to reciprocate.</p>
<p>I lost my virginity about three weeks later. The fact that I’m still with the guy (it’s been a year and a half) makes me feel slightly less whorish. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>So playing ****ty videogames or reading boring literature are the only alternative hobbies to kissing? Uh huh.</p>
