The way you answered my other questions about my first kiss really helped, but I am still wicked nervous about it. I have a bad feeling that I am going to mess up big time. Also we haven't hugged or held hands yet, and I hope that just going straight to kissing won't ruin holding hands and stuff like that. I don't think that i am ready to like make out with him I just want a short kiss, but I am afraid that he might want more. If he does and tries to do more what should I do. He told my best friend that he didn't want to kiss me if I was going to like reject him from kissing me, and that he would be really embarassing for him. I really don't want to make him upset, cuz this is his first kiss too. Also I am still shakey about where to like keep my arms when I kiss him. Thank you for your help.
Love,

If there's a time that seems right, like if you're sitting together or whatever, hold his hand, or just get nearer him, and he'll probably put his arm around you. You should probably try to do this kind of early on, because you don't know when he's going to kiss you. But if you don't hold hands or hug before, then no worries. It won't ruin the kiss.
And if he wants more than a short kiss, then kiss him for a little longer than you wanted, but less than he wants, and kind of cut it off... like, have you seen John Tucker Must Die? You know how she ends the kiss with him, and leaves him wanting more? That's what you want to do. Just slowly pull away, and look into his eyes, and he'll really want to kiss you again, but at the same time, he'll know that he's not going to get it.
If it's going to just be a short kiss, then your arms really aren't an issue. My first kiss was a total shock to me: I was at a dance at my camp, sitting down and talking to one of my friends, when my date just came over and kissed me, and then walked away. It was perfect, but the arms weren't really an issue at all. However, you should probably do something with them after he kisses you. You should look into his eyes, and smile, and hold his hands or put one arm around his waist(he'll either do the same or put his arm over your shoulders... you know?)
Don't worry. Since it's his first kiss, he's probably just as nervous as you are about everything. Like, you already know that he's afraid that you'll reject him. He's probably also not sure what to do. So even if you end up doing something that's not 100% perfect, he won't care.
