Linger at the end of a one-on-one outing. At the end of a one-on-one outing, linger with your crush just a little longer than normal. Attempt to draw out natural pauses in your speech. Even if you’re nervous, try not to fill every moment with words. This allows a natural moment of anticipation to build.^{[7]XResearch source}
- Creating more anticipation for the kiss will make it seem more exciting and out of the blue.

Practice good oral and personal hygiene. If you want to make yourself as kissable as possible, be sure your breath is fresh and that you don’t have any body odor. It’s also helpful to apply an unflavored lip balm for soft lips.
- Brush your teeth twice a day (especially your tongue) and floss regularly to keep your mouth ready for kissing.
- Always wear deodorant. It’s especially important if you find you get nervous and sweat a lot around your crush.

Try to minimize the physical distance between you. This will signal that you’re hoping for a more intimate moment without being too obvious, enhancing the element of surprise.
- If you’re walking your crush to their door, for example, don’t trail far behind. Walk with them. If there are steps, you can even level a height difference between you by stopping a stair above or below where they do.
4
Say something kind and unexpected. Now that you’ve created a moment of physical closeness, it’s time to bridge any emotional distance. Say something sweet and surprising to make them feel close to you. It’s important that you believe the thing you say here, as the emotion behind your sentiment will be obvious.^{[8]XResearch source}
- For example, making eye contact, you could say, “I felt really attracted to you today.”

Pause and look at their lips. Don’t say anything after your sincere surprise comment. Simply draw out the moment. Shoot a brief glance at their lips, not longer than two seconds, and then make eye contact with them.^{[9]XResearch source}
- Try to keep your mouth gently parted, receptive to a kiss, during this look.
- If they look at your lips too, that is a great sign.
6
Lean in for the kiss, gently pressing your lips against theirs. If your crush feels the same way, they will meet your kiss. If they turn away, don’t force them to kiss. Respect them and understand that they may not share your feelings.^{[10]XResearch source}
- If you’re feeling unsure about whether your crush will be receptive, lean in for the kiss very slowly. This gives your crush time to stop the kiss if they do not want it or realize that, however unexpected, you want to kiss them.
