Don’t kiss her. That’s so street.
Caress her mouth with your mouth. Softly.
No tongue. Gotta crawl before you walk.
Quality over quantity, less is more, etc.
Tongue is OK. Tongue is good. It’s just a bad idea to try to lick her stomach. Just a wee bit is perfect.
She indicated that you need help, so she needs to help you by showing you what she would like by kissing you the way she wants you to kiss her. People can tell you how to kiss all day long, but this is a case where showing helps the most. Ask her to show you what she would like.
It’s a bad idea to try to lick her stomach via her esophagus. Any other method is generally ok.
No drool! Keep your saliva to yourself.
I second the recommendation for Burt’s Bees lip balm. You don’t want to put on so much that your lips feel sticky or slimy, just enough to feel soft. (Skip the Burt’s Bees variety that’s called “Lifeguard’s Friend” or whichever kind has a red cap and sunscreen in it – it turns your lips white.)
Definitely get your new ladyfriend to coach you a little. My husband didn’t have a ton of experience when we got together, but he had a can-do attitude and a willingness to take direction (and natural talent, as he would want me to add). You’ll figure it out pretty quickly, but it’s important to maintain good communication and a sense of humor during the getting-to-know-you, experimental phase.
Wait, we’re talking about mouth kissing mouth, right? I thought mangoes were for practicing cunnilingus…
This is probably the best advice in this entire thread. I have been told by different people that I am both the best and the worst kisser in the world. Tastes vary so get her to tell you and (better yet) show you what she likes.
Your confusing mangos with tacos.
And YOU are confusing “your” with “you’re.” 
Don’t risk anything. Hire a stunt-kiss double.
- clean breath. Not fresh-chewing-gum breath, but I brushed my teeth/had a mint an hour ago breath.
- no spit. slimyness=ew.
- Relax. She likes you. She wants you to kiss her, so she obviously doesn’t think you’re gross or anything. You’re in. Relax. (Now don’t fuck up! I kid…)
- Think of it as…a caress. You’d also like to hold her hands, stroke her fingers, stroke her hair, etc., right? You’re just holding hands…with your tongues. Also, take your cues from her. Match the level of pressure. If she’s gentle, you be gentle. If she kisses a little harder, you kiss a little harder. Once you feel more comfortable, nudge things in the direction you’d like, but not too quickly. There’s lots of give-and-take in a good kiss.
But if you CAN do it, you’re golden.
Agreed. If either of you are wiping your mouth after the kiss, it’s not going well.
And don’t try to jam your tongue deep into her mouth; focus instead on licking her lips and the tip of her tongue.
I really like this. Thanks 
.
Yeek! So…umm…just kiss the inside of the mango then while avoiding the skin?
(I recall eating a mango, skin and all, a few times and not getting any blisters. Hmm.)
It’s been said on these boards before that “Everyone is someone’s kink”.
I think you and I were on the same page with the PUA stuff up until this nugget of info. Seriously where are you getting it from? This is date four coming up, I’m not taking steps back here by teasing her with my lips.
She’s taking the initiative with the tongue here. I’m just trying to figure out how to respond.
Like I said, I bought “a couple” of mangos 
.
And while we’re on the same page, last date the girl made a sex joke that I responded to with another joke that she took a bit seriously. So she says “You’re getting ahead of yourself here, you haven’t even reached second base yet. There’s a natural order of things here.”
Remind me, what issecond base?
Lmao. That’s really cracking me up right now.
I think this is the second most important piece of advice, right after the bit about asking for coaching.
You’re so welcome! Always happy to help out fellow inepts 
As others have said, it’s like your mouth’s holding hands with her mouth (well, no-one’s quite said that, but it’s the image I got).
Gentle suction (is there a way to make that sound less …ick?) can be nice, just enough to keep your lips sealed together.
And a little, very little, spit swapping is needed for the hormones to really kick in, it’s the difference between “Hey, it’s like kissing my brother!” and “Oh studmuffin, I must have you now!”
Take time out to kiss each other’s neck, earlobes, eyelids, tips of noses etc - definitely no dribbly spit and don’t stick your tongue in her ear - it feels weird, off-putting and makes your next mouth to mouth kiss taste like earwax.
Have fun, make sure she’s having fun too.
Add me to the list of people who think talking through what you *both *enjoy is good. Talk, practice, talk, practice, talk, practice, practice, practice!
Generally, the most impressive embellishment you can think up the next time you’re bragging about your exploits, which doesn’t involve direct contact with anyone’s genitals other than your own.
So receiving a blow job then? I’d rather give than receive, but I’ll take what I can get.
Er, OK, other people can’t come in direct contact with your genitals either. That’s third.
