Girl Talk: First Kisses

Have you had your first kiss?




I know that many girls between the age of 13 and 18 worry about their first kisses. The biggest worry? That they haven't had it yet.


It's normal to worry about not having your first kiss, most girls do. We want to have the best story to tell our friends, we want our first kiss to be with the greatest guy, the guy that will make all of our friends extremely jealous and wish that their story was a good as ours. But if this is the case, why are we so worried about it as such a young age? Why do we think that we're going to meet the perfect guy before we even reach adulthood? Our first kiss is something that we are going to remember forever. A story that we'll tell over and over again, well into elderly life. So why are we rushing to just get it done, when it could be the first romantic moment that we ever have?


According to statistics, in the UK, 14 is the average age that a girl will have her first kiss, and 15 for a boy. This means that people in secondary schools are becoming anxious about the thought of having their first kiss with a guy that they know, and this could result in peer pressure. Girls especially may feel that, if all their friends have had a kiss, they're falling behind and may never get a boyfriend. I don't understand why having your first kiss early takes precedence over having a special first kiss.


How to make your first kiss special:

- Be friends first: This is something that I think is really important. Don't kiss a guy just because you feel like you should. If you like a guy, talk to him. Try to find out what his interests are and be his friend. This way you can find out if he's the person that you really want to kiss.

-Don't rush: Who cares if all your friends have had their first kisses? You don't have to prove anything to anyone. Kiss someone who you like, when you're sure that you're ready.

-Make the story fun: Most people have an embarrassing first kiss. Whether it's a nose bump or a tongue situation, you have the ability to make the story funny. As I said before, you'll be telling this story for years to come, so make the best of a bad situation

-The later the better: Who ever has the most romantic and special first kiss story at the age of 14? The older you are, the better you'll remember your kiss and the more special it will be.

I hope this post has given you some useful information, or at least made you reminisce about your first kisses.

    I'm 17 and never been kissed. Actually, I've never even been asked out... it makes me sad sometimes but then I remember that I still have all that exciting stuff to come! I'm ready, but I'm also willing to wait until its right. So anyone at 14/15 has nothing to worry about! xxx

      It's great that you haven't had it yet. As you said, there's so many exciting things to come! That's much better than rushing through it!

Road House (2024) | Film Review

-

When ex-UFC fighter Dalton (Jake Gyllenhaal) takes a job as a bouncer at a roadhouse, he soon finds that his past is quickly catching up to him. I've never seen the original Road House, and when I put this one on I wasn't really planning to review it, but I found myself really getting into it. I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Both the characters and the story were a lot more engaging and compelling than I thought they would be. The story sucked me in right from the beginning and I was interested the whole way through. The cast is great, but Jake Gyllenhaal completely carries the film and plays the character of Dalton really well. Again, I can't compare his performance to the original, but I really like the character. The fight scenes, which are pretty much what the film is about, are done really well. They're entertaining, but they also do a good job of moving the story forward. I think the reason I liked the film so much was because I didn't take it

Wonka | Film Review

Young Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) tries to follow his dreams to become a respected chocolatier, despite opposition at every turn . This film was never particularly high on my 'to-watch' list, but it was always on my radar, so I'm glad I've finally seen it. I liked this movie a lot more than I thought I would, but I still definitely had problems with it! For a start, while I love the fact that it was a musical, I didn't actually like any of the actual songs. None of them really stood out (except the one that's already known) and having only seen the film yesterday, I can't remember any of them. In fact, while the songs didn't hurt the film, I also don't feel like they were completely necessary. I would have liked the film the same amount if it hadn't been a musical. Wonka is a really charming character, and Chalamet plays him really well. In fact, the entire cast is great - definitely the best thing about the film by a mile. The relationship b

Scarface (1983) | 100 Movies Bucket List

Next up for the Bucket List was another first-time watch! I'd seen the original 1932 film years ago and really liked it, but I never got around to watching this (undoubtedly more popular) version, so I'm glad it was on the list. I really really liked this movie. I'm not sure if I like it more than, or the same as the original, but I definitely had a great time with it. One thing about finally seeing all these classic movies is seeing how much impact they've had on pop culture, and this film is definitely no exception. It's so quotable, there are so many iconic images, and it's one that everyone should watch if they haven't seen it before. The most talked-about aspect of this film is probably the violence, and that's so interesting to see. Not only the way it's spoken about, but also the difference between violence in older films like this and newer releases. I personally thought the violence was done well, and while probably not all of it was strictl

My Problem With '8 Simple Rules'

Hey Guys x Today's post might come out as more of a rant, which I'm OK with because I haven't ranted about something in a while! Last year, I started watching the show '8 Simple Rules' when it started playing on Comedy Central. It originally came on between 2002 and 2005 but I didn't watch it when it was first on. Anyway, I really got into it. There were only three seasons, so it was over before I wanted it to be. And I loved this show, and I still love it. Comedy Central doesn't play it anymore but if it did I would dive right back into it because I love a good sitcom. However, I have a major gripe with a plotline of the show, that got more prominent in season 2/3. Let me just explain the characters a bit, so you know who I'm taking about in case you never watched it. The show revolves around a family, Paul and Cate Hennessy, and their children Bridget, Kerry and Rory. In the second season, the father in the show died (due

The Matrix | 100 Movies Bucket List

  Next up for the Bucket List was a first-time watch. This is one that I had obviously heard of but knew next to nothing about. I found that it took a long time for me to connect with the story, and even then, while the film was interesting to watch, I never felt particularly invested in it. There were a lot of recognisable, iconic moments that I appreciated, and I get how much of an impact it had on sci-fi (and probably movies in general), but I don't know if it was for me. I somewhat enjoyed it, I understood everything that happened, but never felt connected, and didn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. It could just be that I need to re-watch it, and I probably will, but for a first watch, I didn't take to it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I'm glad I finally watched it!
