(Definitely mundane and pointless…)

My friends and I decided to meet together to watch “A Series of Unfortunate Events.” So, we decided to meet a friend’s (who we’ll call Jake) house because the mall was right beside his house. So, I got to Jake’s house early and we were just playing on the computer. Jake and I are just friends, BTW. We were “together” once, but we ended it because we just wanted to be friends. Then, we went to his room and started talking. Next thing I know, our lips are locked and kind of making out. We didn’t french each other, although our tongues did touch very lightly. Then, right after, our friends came over and we went to the mall to watch the movie. But, I was so dizzy right after the kiss that there were times during the movie where I didn’t know what was going on. And no, that wasn’t my first kiss. But, it was my first very serious kiss. And I had no idea it would feel like that.

There will come a time when you would sell your soul to The Devil for that feeling.

At that time you will know for certain that there is no Devil.

Oh, I remember my first “serious” kiss. I was standing in my parent’s garage, the serious face of Jean-Luc Picard looking down on us from the poster on the door, my very first boyfriend and I kissing after our first date.

Inigo is right. You will treasure this memory forever.

I don’t remember my first “serious” kiss ☹

I do remember my first sexual experience though! 😃

Oooh, the first kiss. Treasure it. I remember being at least as excited, if not more so, about my first “serious” kiss than losing my virginity.

I think it might’ve been because I actually liked the first girl I kissed though :p.

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but Jake and I decided that we’re going to be “kissing buddies.” It’s kind of the same concept as fuck buddies, I suppose, except we’ve decided we’re going to practise kissing with each other. Hey, we’re teenagers. What d’you expect? 😃

Define “serious” here. I’ve kissed three girls in my life and while I enjoyed each, none of them were particularly noteworthy or awe-inspiring, even the first time, which was the only time I’ve ever had an open-mouth kiss and what I’d classify as fairly serious. I’m not in the habit of licking other people’s tongues, after all.

For me, I think “serious” is open-mouthed kissing, even with no tongue, and frenching is definitely serious.

Trust me, in 20 years, you’ll think it’s cute. “Kissing buddies” is adorable. Sorry, but that’s the way it is for us old folks.

By open-mouth, I meant french. Guess kissing just doesn’t do it for me like it does others or the emotional attachment wasn’t there, one.

I’m hoping it’s the latter.

The first “wow!” kiss I had was the first kiss with the guy who’s now my husband. I’d kissed a few other guys before him, even dated one for years. I don’t remember the first kiss from my first boyfriend, but I certainly do remember the “wow!” kiss.
