5 Tips to improve your kissing skills

True love is when that person kisses you in public and you don't think twice about where you are, who's around you or why that person is kissing you. All that matters is the person on the end of your lips.
But sometimes you feel you're not that good in kissing and therefore, here is some tips for you...

1) Practice on your hand - Sure, this might sound a little freakish, but everyone has done it, and it's a great way to practice your lip movement. Put your upper lip over you index finger (hand should be flat and facing you...like you're about to do a karate chop). Put your lower lip just below the bottom of your middle finger. Slowly glide your lower lip over the middle finger and stop when it gets to the bottom of your index finger (your two lips should come close but never touch). Repeat this motion over and over. Occasionally, take your tongue and glide it from the middle of your middle finger to the middle of your index finger. Every few strokes gently push your tongue between your index finger and middle finger. Remember, move your tongue slowly.

2) Practice in the mirror - This is a great way to fine tune your approach. Watch for your facial expressions and look for two key things: the point at which you close your eyes and when you open your mouth. Wait until your lips are about an inch away (from the lips in the mirror) before you open up. At nearly the same time (or a half second earlier), start to close your eyes.

3) Watch the Movies & TV - It's hard to flip through the channels without seeing people making out...especially on MTV. Use this sex-saturated resource to your advantage. You can really learn a lot by watching people kiss on the big screen. Bear in mind, though, that not all kisses are realistic (Top Gun) or practical in everyday life. Instead, look at how normal kisses are done. Watch for body positioning, placement of hands, and the point at which people close their eyes and open their mouths. Rent a movie or two...this way you'll have the ability to hit rewind and watch the proper technique over and over.

4) Watch other people - Look at how couples at your school do it. Watch for details like the approach, the way they look at each other right before they kiss, etc.

5) Ask your friends - This can provide you with invaluable insights.

"Not all kisses are magic, and most boys do not live up to your expectations, but there are those times when everything, I mean love, romance, relationships, it all falls together perfectly and it's incredible. It's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it"
