Troubleshooting - The PERFECT KISS

"Houston, we have a problem" (uh oh)

There are many ways that first kiss can go terribly wrong, but most are easily avoided.

BEWARE:

# Moving too quickly
Be careful not to startle the kissee - watch and wait for the signal to proceed
If you aren't sensitive in your kissing, how empathetic and caring can you be about the rest of the realtionship...
# Wet, sloshy, squishy, fishy
If you or the kissee need to wipe your lips, or chin, dry after the kiss - well, it wasn't 'perfect' was it?
# Smash-mouth smothering kiss of death
Avoid the over-passionate, insensitive kiss that leaves the kissee gasping for air.
# Chapped, Cactus Lips
There's a delicate balance to lip moisture equation. The last thing you want to do is drool on your partner, but you definitely don't want to leave scars with crispy, chafed lips.

# Too much Tongue and Too Much, Too Soon
Keep that tongue tucked away until you get the right signals, then apply with caution - later

# Dragon Breath
A mint or two, breath saver, gum, spray - anything to get rid of gunk-mouth.

# Weak, Wobbly or Wooden Passionless Pecks
The swoop in and bounce out kiss is simply meaningless - unless you want to impart a "let's just sort-of be friends" type of message.

# Smacking, Clacking Loud Kisses
The old "clack and smack" kills romance in a flash.
