OK What is an acceptable amount of time to wait before kissing someone when you start dating?
1 date ? 2? A week? a month?
Seriously I need to know this.
Its been a long while since I started dating someone
So B and I have hung out twice and still not kiss
Then last night I had a dinner date with a guy I met over the weekend and no kiss
I am really starting to get a complex y’all
I had my first real kiss when I was 12, his name is Justin and we are still friends and since then I have been well…quite the kisser
But now as I am every minute nearing closer and closer to my 27th birthday(Sunday) I am at a massive lack of kisses
I swear if I dont get kissed this week Im going to pull my hair out
Ok that sounded A. slutty and B. weird
But come on I am dating, I am “playing the field” which I hate and I want to get kissed DAMMIT!
Have yall heard that new country song are you gonna kiss me or not?
Ok here is the part of the song Im loving..
We were sittin’ up there on your momma’s roof
Talkin’ bout everything under the moon
With the smell of honeysuckle and your perfume
All I could think about was my next move
Oh, but you were so shy and so was I
Maybe that’s why it was so hard to believe
When you smiled and said to me…
Are you gonna kiss me or not
Are we gonna do this or what
I think you know I like you a lot
But you’re ’bout to miss your shot
Are you gonna kiss me or not
It was the best dang kiss that I’d ever had
Except for that long one after that
I am weirdly addicted to this game on my iphone
Its like that game you’d play at the arcade where you put in the coins and it pushes more out…omg I cant stop…its bad.
Also we are now 5 days away from 27…le sigh
Oh well Happy Tuesday
Tara Im back with Target Tues next week…promises!

Haha! I am amused by this post!
Ummm I don’t think there’s a kissing rule? I personally think kissing on the first date would be awkward. But what do I know? Also, do these guys know that you’re seeing other guys? I’ve never just dated to date, so I have no idea what standard protocol would be!
I’ve definitely kissed on the first date! My husband and I didn’t kiss till the 3rd date and it was a really quick one when he was dropping me off at my house. I don’t think there’s a set rule for when it’s OK to kiss, but I would hope you don’t have to wait too long!
ha oh pretty girl i love this post. honestly i think a kiss on the first date doesn’t leave you feeling surprised or even satisfied. i think holding out until the right ‘moment’ is the perfect thing. yes i’m a way too mushy hopeless romantic but whenever it happens for you (cause of course it will!) it’ll be worth it 🙂 xo happy tuesday love!
Oh girl, I don’t think there are any steadfast rules to kissing and dating! Don’t they say “all is fair in love and war??!” 🙂 With that said, Alan and I made out like highschool kids on our first date, hahaha! If you’re wanting a kiss–get out there and be aggressive! 🙂 I’m sure we could make up some sort of cheer for you, so that you’ll be ready to get out there and play!
Maybe they’re trying to be gentleman-y. I say if you want it, go for it… I don’t know any guy who would turn down a kiss if you’re dating him!
looooveee that song. and this post. why is dating so confusing?
No rules, I agree with Mrs. Smith. : ]
And I don’t blame you, who doesn’t like a good kiss?!
Love,
B
This post made me laugh! 🙂
Like Mrs Smith said, no rules, when it happens, it happens!
Maybe you’ll get a special birthday kiss!!
Also, I LOVE that game at the carnival too. If I had it on my phone, ya, there would be a problem. haha
I think a kiss by the second date is appropriate. I feel as though, if there is enough chemistry there to have the second date why not kiss. Maybe he is waiting out fr a birthday kiss!! haah well I hope you get kissed soon! hah
You kiss when it feels right!!! Don’t ruin the moment because you don’t know when it is appropriate. You will know! 🙂
Maybe they’re waiting for the third date? I dont know. =/ hope it happens soon!
COIN DOZER!!! hahahaaha… my hubby and I are totally addicted to this game on our ipad!
I love that song! To be honest, I mostly end up dating guys that I’m already friends with, so this rule doesn’t apply. I’d say if they haven’t initiated something by the third date, you should either kiss them or cut your losses, but that’s just me.
I got kissed on the third date with my husband, so my fingers are crossed for you funny girl!
Maybe you need to throw out some more “i want to kiss you” vibes. A guy is NOT going to go in for a kiss if he thinks he is going to be rejected.
But as for timing…I definitely think you should atleast kiss by date #3. One and Two are fine…but three..makeouts should occur! 🙂
Hm, I definitely can’t give any advice on the kissing rule. I’d be the girl who completely waits for the guy to make the first move, no matter how long it takes. And I don’t think that’s good either!
Maybe you should just go for it 😉
I always thought you kissed on the first date. But Dave and I have been together for 10 years so what do I know. We won’t talk about what happened on our first date. It doesn’t matter. We are married now. I say if you don’t have a kiss by the third date you make the first move. What guy woudn’t love that??
Love this post, cause it is near and dear to my heart!
Josh took FOREVER to go in for the kiss, I am talking a month or more, finally I just went in for it myself…I didn’t want to “slide into the friend zone”! He said he always wanted to but couldn’t work up the nerve, so it is a good thing I did!
Good luck!
Cute post and I love that song:)
I love this song!! I’m not really sure what the rules are when you kiss someone. I’d kiss someone on the first date if it felt right. I guess just go based on if it feels right or not? I mean both guys have been extremely chivalrous so maybe they have like a gentlemens code?
I love that song! I say you should take a line from the song and ask! Or like someone else said give off the vibes. If he’s got his arm around you do some staring into his eyes or if you hug just go for it. Don’t develop a complex they are probably just shy. Hubs and I talked until like 6 am after a couple group hang outs and I can’t remember if he kissed me before or after I said we should go to bed and he took it as together and I was too tired to care!
Maybe those guys are waiting for you to make the move! They’re trying to be polite and not kiss on the first date and follow the rules.. Plant one on him!!!
I love that song!!
I havent had a first kiss in forever…..so I kinda forgot 🙂
I say NO on the first day…..but maybe on the 2nd if it goes wellll…..for sure by the 3rd or 4th! You gotta do it….b/c what if he is a terrible kisser….and there you just wasted all of those dates with someone that it will never work with?!!?
Anywho…..maybe he is trying to be a gentleman….maybe you should just go for it and make the 1st move!!!
The mister waited a month and half before kissing me! He said it’s because I was special and different than other girls and he wanted it to BE special and different than other girls. Don’t worry, once he did it was game on 😉
Ugh, I sooooo do not miss this! But then again, I do – the mystery and excitement of it all. That song is perfect!
It totally depends on the dude. Husbie laid one right on me during the movie that we saw on our first date. Lol! Maybe you are sending body language that indicate you would shut them down if they tried to kiss you? Maybe you should just lay one on one of these boys and see what happens! 😉
I would think by the 2nd date, but if not then definitely the 3rd! Not kissing on a first date is a good thing. Shows respect. Or something like that 🙂
Ok, so I don’t really have any dating expertise. I’ve only dated 2 guys and one ended up being my husband. We did kiss on our first date, but we had known each other for a year before. I hope you don’t wait too much longer! I’m not sure about “rules” and whatnot. 🙂
Girl. This post made me laugh but I would say they must be waiting on the right moment to kiss you. I would be getting impatient too! Hang in there. Oh and because its your birthday, I’d be telling them its my birthday week, i deserve a birthday kiss but be sligh about it , prompting a hint maybe?! just a thought!
New Follower! You should get a kiss by the third hangout cause anything more than that is too long! I love that game, it is so addicting!!
Third date is fine! He’ll do it this date, I know it. (Especially if he reads this post…;))
Although! If I had left it up to my husband, we’d still be waiting. Maybe he needs a little push in the right direction…?
I am horrible at advice like this because I never really “dated.” Robbie and I are HS sweethearts so I don’t have much to compare it to. When we first kissed we were drunk at a party haha! It was way easier that way…then the rest of the kisses came easy 🙂 I’d say 3rd date is a good number though….
P.S. love that song!
HAHA YOU CRACK ME UP GIRL! I hope you get kissed before your birthday, it’s not weird, & I LOVE THAT SONG!!!!
Funny post! LOVE that song! 🙂
Funny story: 1st date: Hubs SHOOK MY HAND! I was sure he wasn’t going to call me again, but he did. 2nd: peck on the cheek. 3rd: finally! 🙂 We’ll be married nine years in July.
You’re making me laugh! I love that song! Crossing my fingers that you get your kiss soon! Dating sucks, but hang in there, it’ll all be worth it in the end!
Hmmmm, first date kisses are fine. Maybe these boys are being gentlemen….which are rare these days. Maybe he thought he had bad breath….LOL! Enjoy it, don’t rush it and don’t force it. If the chemistry/breath is right the kiss will just happen. 🙂
Good luck hun! Like I said last night, don’t sweat it! It will happen soon I am sure of it!
You know how I feel about this, since my hubby waited a few dates, too:) But, I say you just GO FOR IT! Take matters into your own hands…err, lips!
I love that song! I hope you don’t have to wait much longer!
HAHA! I laughed out loud reading this post.
Okay – I don’t think there is a “kissing rule” but my husband and I didn’t kiss until the 3rd date. HA! I could tell he wanted to on the 2nd but he was too nervous. 🙂
Get you that kiss, lady!
It took my fiance and I almost 1.5 months to kiss. Granted he was gone for two weeks out of that. I was just nervous (no one had ever made me that nervous) and he just thought I had put him in the friend zone. Silly boy!
I’m an old married women! No help here! I wouldn’t be too concerned at this point. After a month….maybe…
No worries, we will totally get you kissed for birthday. I’ll be your wingman, or wingwoman. Whatever they’re called!
Oh my gosh I need to know the name of that game!!!
Also, I say make a move! Some guys are just way too nervous and you could be waiting forever. I speak from experience. haha!
You’ll get your kiss soon girl, don’t you worry! 😉
Almost every guy I’ve ever dated I had to be the one to take the initiative, including my now husband!! lol 🙂
this post is so cute!
I don’t even know how I found your blog, but love this!
I was contemplating the other day how tv shows always call the third date the sex date and that definitely makes me go “ummm what? eww”
I think 2nd date is a good time for a kiss… the guys I’ve been out with recently seem to think the first is a-ok… uncool dudes lol
CarissaExplainsItAll
ha ha i think it really depends on the date, the person, and the situation.
gosh I wish love wasn’t so darn complicated.
Love this post 🙂 Hopefully you get a birthday kiss (if you havent already gotten one!)
And what is the name of that game. I want it!
Oh and my husband kissed me on our first date 🙂
