I had a first date with this guy Jack last night. We have been talking for a while, and so I asked him out, and we went to the movies, and to a friends house afterwards. The date itself was good, no akward silences, kept the conversation going, and he held my hand, which I wasnt expecting him to do, because he is quite shy. At the end of the night, he walked me to my door, and gave me a hug. I almost kissed him, because I thought he would be too shy to make a first move, but he turned away, so I ended up kissing his cheek (and I am so embaressed about it) He said that he didnt want to get me sick (he has been sick for the last week, or something) Do you think thats the real reason, or did he just not want to kiss yet? Is there anything I could say to him to fix this?

Go out with him next weekend and (I can't believe I'm using this word) cuddle with him. He'll get hornier then. [ kevin1986's advice column | Ask kevin1986 A Question ]
karenR answered Sunday April 3 2005, 2:21 pm: I think he said it because he may have been embarrassed. Not all girls want to kiss on the first date. He probably thought he was doing the proper thing! Or he may have told you the truth about not wanting to make you sick. Holding hand's spreads more germs than kissing by the way,:) He probably dosen't know that though! I think your next date will end diffrently. Don't worry about it.:) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

Maybe hes not a very expierenced kisser and he was embarrassed, or he might have been sick. If I were you, I'd just take a step back, go out with him again, and maybe on the third date try to kiss him again. He might be ready.
feverdancer03 answered Sunday April 3 2005, 11:44 am: I htink that he may be telling the truth about being sick....did he seem sick like caughing?? if not it was probabily just a cover up because since hes shy, he wont move to kissing to fast. or maybe he just believes kissing on the first date is moving to fast, and he was just taking his beliefs to action. I dont really htink you have anything to worry about. Tou guys like each other, and you didnt know. Maybe the next time you get into a good convo, somewhere in the middle just say something like...."hey, sorry i was moving laittle to fast on our date, i wasnt sure i you were ready for it, or even if I was.." I dunno thats just a thought. Hope i helped! [ feverdancer03's advice column | Ask feverdancer03 A Question ]
icey0990 answered Sunday April 3 2005, 11:41 am: He probably smacked himself right after you went inside. People dont think..or have time to think..so i think he was just nervous and shy..but hes probably mad at himself for turning away. Go out with him again and if all is running smooth..no need to bring it up..but if you feel some awkwardness..maybe say "im sorry for the other night..i didnt mean to make you feel uncomfortable..i had a really great night and hopefully tonight will be great also" [ icey0990's advice column | Ask icey0990 A Question ]
