Tips & Warnings
A first kiss can happen anywhere and at any time. Being attentive to your date at all times will help you be prepared for that right moment.
Avoid planning the exact moment or time of day to initiate the first Valentine's Day kiss. Such an event needs to feel spontaneous. Otherwise, your partner may feel pressured into the kiss.
Lack of good oral hygiene will thwart any efforts at planning the Valentine's Day first kiss. Brush and floss your teeth regularly, especially before the date.
Don't mistake shyness for lack of interest. Many people simply don't know how to convey the appropriate body language.
