And things were going okay. We had a lot in common, and got along well.


But then we kissed.


It was fucking awful. Not kinda bad. BAD. It felt like Prince's movie kisses look. Unforgiveable.


I feel like a shallow bitch for not calling him back since, but everytime I think about him I think about how damn unpleasant kissing him was.




Little help here -should I give him a second chance, or is it not worth it?

Give him a second chance

luv4u said:

I want to. He was a nice guy and all, but how do I say this without sounding like a cunt? I don't think I'm that desperate yet.

1st kisses can be deceiving

in both good and bad ways

another chance may make things clearer

Mach said:

You might be right.

At least he's got nowhere to go but up.

true

Mach said:

If your gut feeling is to get out now, do it.

Bad kissers are the worst. I mean, how do you screw that up?? Imagine what he is like in bed if he can't even kiss well.

Why not take the challenge and MAKE him a good kisser?

A 26 year old shouldn't have to be taught. I'm not expecting perfection, but damn!

meow85 said:

...I take it that he's not all that attractive then?
Otherwise I'm sure that you would be up for the challenge!

maybe you just need to adjust your kissing styles to one another.

or

maybe the two of you vibe on more of a friendship level and the fact that you didn't enjoy kissing him is an indication of that. even a kiss from the best kisser can be horrible if the right vibe isn't there.




good luck.

I say give him a second chance...

I'm not sure telling him he's a terrible kisser is necessary or even helpful to him. If it was that bad, just make up an excuse and get out.

If he can't kiss than move on. It's not your job to teach him. As someone else said if the person is not a good kisser then they are not likely to be good in the sack either. if that's the case then there is no point in hooking up with them.

JasmineFire said:

You might have something there. Kissing my best friend is nothing like kissing someone I'm attracted to.

I don't know. I think I need tot hink about this for a bit.

Hey, dont be afraid to discuss this w/ him. If he's such a great guy, he deserves to know the truth about how u feel.

I guess so.


I'll see what happens.

meow85 said:

Ive been guilty of doing this sorta thing b4. Id stop calling someone if the slightest thing turned me off. Ive grown up alot over the past few years and realized how immature I used 2 b. I find that I carry around less baggage when I am truely honest about the affairs in my life. I dont lead anyone on or play games. (pats myself on the back)

dreamfactory313 said:

There is nothing wrong taking off if they do something to turn you off. It's not a sign of immaturity. They are the one with the problem.

I vote for letting him go. Bad kissing is intolerable if you're into it. It will not get better. I repeat: it will not get better.

Spats said:

Its personal growth for me. Everyone is different. Its just something that I needed to work on. I had handled relationships pretty badly in the past. I was much too egotistical. I always found myself regretting my behavior, so I made a choice to change the way I operate. I think Im a better man as a result.

Errrr....like HOW bad was it?

What?

Gawd, depends on how much you want to invest If he can be trained then yes, it's worth giving him another shot. But he'll probably get all weird about it since you guys are pretty new & ultimately be offended or too stupid to take to the training. Ugh...

althom said:

Nothing I just wondered why you asked.
I mean you must have heared the answer before
