Getting close to landing your first kiss? It will slash your anxiety in half.
1) Eliminate Expectations
Don't 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.
You'll be so relieved and thrilled to be kissing, that you'll want to do it all the time. If you screw up a little on your first kiss, don't sweat it.
3) It's probably their first kiss, too
Don't expect to be judged on your performance. If they haven't kissed anyone before, either, you can be damn sure that they're also stressing about it. After you guys pull apart from your first kiss, it's likely they'll be so busy wondering "Am I doing this right", that they won't stop to consider whether you did it.
4) They want you to kiss them
Go ahead and assume that the person you're dating wants to kiss you. Of course, they want to kiss you.
5) Think positive thoughts
Think how happy you'll 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.
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 what's the big deal?
7) Visualize it
Try to picture how it's going to go down. When you go to bed at night, close your eyes and try to imagine how you're going to make your approach, how you're going to hold them, etc. The more you visualize this moment, the more comfortable and stress free you'll be when the time comes to do it for real.
8) Practice it in your room ... seriously.
Practice walking up to your sweetie, practice what you're going to say (and in what tone of voice), and practice leaning in. You can even practice kissing your hand.
