I'm 17 and i've never been kissed. help?

Question

I'm 17 and just graduated from high school and i've never been kissed. I feel really pathetic and now that i'm so late in the game i'm so nervous for when they day actually comes. I've been told that i'm attractive so i know it's not because i'm gross or anything. I'm very shy and never have really had many guy friends and i switched schools a lot. I'm going off to train for ski racing this winter and i'll probably end up with the oppurtunity to hook up with some but i'm so nervous about it because i've never done it and i'm so inexperienced for a 17 year old girl! i already know i'm not going to just makeout with some random guy but when the time comes i just don't want him to know how inexperienced i am. i'm also known for making things awkward so i need to know how to not do that!

Answer 1

practice on random people!

Answer 2

let me tell you this. people could have started kissing at 8. doesn't make them good at it. many adults can't stand kissing because it's not appealing. boys usually think they're this great stud, but are more a dud. they're sloppy, gushy, wet, sloppy, etc. so don't even fret on this. it's all good

Answer 3

try kissing your mom. incest isn't as bad as it sounds. maybe you will get into it, who knows. Good Luck!

Answer 4

my ex girl friend was 24 when she had her first kiss and that was me.  she was very nervous at first so i took my time with her.  i started out with little tap kiss then from there on it was on.  so tell the person it your first time and if he really likes you. they will be patient with you

Answer 5

dont worry im 18 and when my first (and most recent) boyfriend tryed to kiss me i pulled away and hid in the bathroom. but that was 4 years ago... and ive still never REALLY been kissed. im hoping that when i do ill just be there and the guy will take over till i get the hang of it.  

Answer 6

Don't worry.. Oh god, I wish I was you! My first kiss was at age 12 and I was considered a **** for the longest time for doing that.

Don't worry, it's normal xo.  

Answer 7

theres nothing wrong with that.

dont try to force yourself to kiss someone.

you will want to remember your first kiss as being special.

if you force it, it will not be special and it will be uncomfortable.

:)

Answer 8

Don't worry about it. Later is sometimes better anyways.

Answer 9

u dont have to worry bout nothin... ur only 17 and while a little bit late who cares. i wouldnt. matter of fact it would be kind of cool to know that everything this girl knows about kissing is from u  btw its really not that hard

Answer 10

So.... there's nothing wrong with that.

I respect that, your time will come and you'll come to realize the wait was worth it.

Answer 11

don't worry, i know how you feel.

i'm 15, never had a bf, never been kissed,

and never even slow danced with a guy.

and so much more lol.

you'll have your moment eventually.

Answer 12

you just have to throw yourself out their and talk to people, if you go to College then you should get some girls

Answer 13

im shy around guys too but let it come naturally

stop thinking about it

its normal trust me

Answer 14

Just remember to relax your lips and its easy.  

Answer 15

Some guys find the inexperienced attractive..  plus theres really nothing to kissing.. everyone kisses differently and couples find a comfortable lock of lips that suits the occasion.

Answer 16

If a guy you're interested in is worth a d**n, he won't care about how "inexperienced" you are when it comes to kissing. Also, he'll learn to appreciate all the little things about you, even things which may be considered awkward. Just act naturally, and he'll understand. And if he doesn't, then he wasn't really worth it to begin with.

Answer 17

Watch the movie (Never Been Kissed) and then see good things come to those who wait!

Answer 18

aww its ok dont rush it....when it is time it will come.

Answer 19

Okay, you shouldn't feel pathetic for not kissing a guy yet. Your time will come. And does everything have to be "doing it" or "hooking up" with a guy? I mean, just wait for the right person, don't just meet some guy then "do it" with him just so you'll be "experienced". To me, life isn't about "doing it" with someone just to be out in the world knowing that you're not a virgin. Just wait till the right guy comes, and then everything will be fine. But if i were you, i'd wait till you're married. but that's just me. :) good luck! and all guys aren't interested in that one thing. most want more than that. a girl with quality. just thought you should know.  

Answer 20

first off calm down... do not worry there are  plenty of people out there who are way older than you and have no kissed anyone before. In today's culture, PDA public displays of affection are HUGE. But I totally understand where you're coming from.

I'm turing 17 in about a month and i havent had my first kiss either. I dont really want to kiss anyone until I find someone that thinks i'm beautiful for just being me. Many people at my school just hookup for the fun of it and I find it totally crazy. I've had a boyfriend or two before, but that has gone no where because they just wanted one thing.

Do not sell yourself out just because the time hasnt come for you yet. You just havent met the right guy. Just live your life and dont go out looking to hookup, because you will regret it. So have fun and it will come dont worry
