We can all agree that first dates are truly stressful (especially when it comes to first date kiss). You’re trying to do your best, to look amazing, and hoping that there will be enough chemistry and connection for the second date to happen.
To get the best tips and tricks for impressing a guy, use THIS BRILLIANT GUIDE.
But what about when you have it all? Your conversation is going great, there are no awkward silences, he’s really amazing and sounds really interesting and smart.
But one thing is still on your mind. Did he enjoy your company as much as you enjoyed his? Is he going to kiss you?
Luckily for you (and every woman in the dating pool out there), there are signs he wants to kiss you, so pay close attention to them!
Obvious Signs He Wants To Kiss You
Eye contact
If he’s locking eyes with you often and for a longer period, that’s a sign that he really enjoys your company and can’t look away from you. It’s also one of the signs he wants to kiss you!
Men who are not interested or are planning on escaping a date will never make direct eye contact with you.
Instead, they will look around, and they won’t be able to focus on anything for longer than three seconds. But if his focus is entirely on you and your face, you got him! So, you better prepare for your first kiss with him!
Accidental (and not so accidental) touches
He’s suddenly clumsy and nervous and he touches you all the time. He strokes your hair, touches your arms, tickles you and basically he uses any excuse he can find to touch you.
You had an eyelash that fell out, he moves your hair from your face, he pushes you gently while telling a joke.
Evidently, these are some of the most obvious physical signs he wants to kiss you!
Braver men will openly take your hand or put their arm around you, but on the first date, most of them are still testing your boundaries and the way you react to their touches.

He’s flirting
Is he acting flirty around you? Well, if he’s flirting with you the entire time, that’s one of the sure-fire signs he wants to kiss you.
Pay attention to his words, the way he says them and his facial expressions. He may try to hide his intentions and feelings, but his body language will tell you everything you need to know.

Distance
Distance plays a big part when it comes to kissing. If he’s far away from you, then there won’t be a kiss.
If he’s sitting opposite you at dinner, but still seems distant and avoids touching your hand (or even accidentally touching your feet with his), there won’t be a kiss.
But if he moves closer to you, touches your hand, hair or any other part of your body, and you feel like you have no personal space, then prepare for a kiss.

He lingers
If he hugs you and hesitates while pulling away, or lingers at the doorway before he leaves, that’s because he’s thinking about whether you want that kiss too.
This is probably one of the cutest signs, because even if he knows that you like him and you want that kiss, he’s still giving you the chance to say no if you want to.
At this point, even the slightest encouragement from your side will be enough for him to finally go for it.
Tell him how you had a great time, touch his arm or even be brave and kiss him first. He won’t turn you down, that’s for sure.
Lips
If he keeps bringing attention to his lips-either, licking his lips, applying chapstick on his lips, biting his lower lip or touching them with his hands, these are all signs he wants to kiss you.
He’s doing this subconsciously because humans tend to touch parts of their body where they want to be touched.
So, pay attention if he touches, licks or bites his lips, as that could be a sign that he’s planning on using them on you.
He compliments you
You may think that this is something they all do on a first date but trust me, not all of them do.
If he’s showering you with compliments, you can actually feel if he means it.
If he notices how your eyes change color, how adorable your blushing cheeks or freckles are, that’s a good sign he’s really into you. You’re not just some chick he took out on a date, he truly enjoys your company and you.
He seems nervous
If he’s normally super-confident around women and was around you at the beginning of the date, but all of a sudden he’s not anymore, that’s a sign that something else is on his mind, and that’s how he’s going to approach you for a kiss.
Kissing someone for the first time can be nerve-racking, so if you notice that your man is fidgeting, no he’s not having a seizure. He’s just nervous about getting closer to you and eventually kissing you.
If you act like you‘re feeling uncomfortable, he will be even more nervous around you and awkward pauses during conversation will become inevitable.
He’s probably going over a million scenarios in his head, like if you will turn your head away, how his breath smells, if you will enjoy his kissing technique, etc.
He lost his focus and confidence, because he was simply disarmed by you. If he suddenly seems nervous around you, it’s one of the signs he wants to kiss you but is scared of making the first move.
If you’re a man reading this, acting nervous is also one of the biggest signs that she wants to kiss you, so pay close attention to that.

Glances at your lips
How to know he wants to kiss you? If you notice that his focus shifts from your eyes to your lips and back while you’re talking, he’s thinking exactly what you think he is.
He’s waiting for the right moment to kiss you. Or your lipstick could be smudged. If it’s not and his attention is torn between your lips and eyes, don’t think much of it anymore.
If he wants to kiss you, trust me, you will feel it with every fiber of your being. You will also feel this intense sexual tension between the two of you and it will be hard to breathe.
This is exactly what a guy said to me a few days ago. Before we kissed, he told me that he had difficulties breathing around me and this question was driving him crazy: “Is this the perfect moment for our first kiss?”
Well, he still has difficulties breathing around me (which is great) but it’s much easier for him to endure it because we already kissed.
Tone of his voice
Psychologists say that a whisper goes along with passion and proximity. If he speaks in a calm way and whispers something at you every few minutes, he really likes you.
While whispering, he’s getting closer to your face and has the perfect opportunity to kiss you.
Paying attention to his voice and movements is an easy way to know how your date will end—with a kiss or an awkward goodbye and an even more awkward, “I’ll call you, I will!”

He noticed your fragrance
If he leaned closer toward you to notice how amazing you smell, that’s not because he is interested in what kind of perfume you’re wearing.
This is one of the most obvious signs that he wants to kiss you, because smell is the most intimate of the five senses.
He probably came that close to see how you would react and soon enough, he will end your first date with a kiss.
He’s doing mouth maintenance
If he’s chewing gum, okay, that’s not exactly a sure-fire way to know if he wants to kiss you. I know people who are chewing gum literally 24/7 (gum chewers syndrome) so it would be ridiculous to think that they want to kiss someone all the time.
If he uses a breath freshener every five minutes and chews gum while showing any of the signs he wants to kiss you, it’s one of the clear signals he’s preparing for it. If he offers you a piece of gum, then there’s no place for doubt.
He puts on romantic music
Whenever I think of kissing scenes in movies, I instantly imagine romantic music in the background, wine, dinner, candles, and so on.
Of course, people don’t kiss only in these settings, but romantic music has become a synonym for kissing, cuddling, (and something more).
If you’re at his place and he puts on romantic music and gets closer to you, then you can be sure he’s preparing himself for a smooch. Soothing music and a glass of wine can help you both relax and prepare for hours of kissing.
If your man is Pisces according to his zodiac sign, then you can be sure you’ll TOTALLY enjoy it because he belongs to the group of zodiac signs who are the best kissers.
Does A Kiss Mean Anything To A Guy?
Yes, a kiss on the lips means something to a guy if he has feelings for you. It means that he likes you, cares about you, and loves you.
If you’ve just started dating, your kisses will become more intense as your relationship progresses. When a man gives you a kiss in public, he wants everyone to know that you are his girl and how much he values your love.
If you ask me, there are two types of kisses: The ones you mean and the ones you don’t mean. If a guy kisses you like he means it, then it will mean something to him.
If he gives kisses for the sake of giving them (for no apparent reason), then it will not mean much to him. Also, this depends on your relationship with a guy, his type of personality, and other things.
Will A Guy Kiss You If He’s Not Interested?
Some guys will kiss you even if they are not interested, while others won’t. This depends on the kind of guy he is.
The reason why a guy would kiss you even when he’s not interested is self-explanatory. He’s not interested in anything serious at the moment or perhaps he’s testing waters. That kiss may have a deeper meaning to you but to him won’t.
You might still hear from him but you can’t be 100% sure about it. If you don’t hear from him even after a few weeks, then it’s time to get over it and find someone with whom kissing will be equally meaningful.
My friend learned all this the hard way…
One of my female friends experienced this a few weeks ago. A guy he really liked for some time finally kissed her and she thought that this is the beginning of something big and meaningful.
Sadly, they weren’t on the same page. He didn’t kiss her because he was genuinely interested in her. He kissed her because he felt like kissing and told her a few days later that the kiss didn’t mean anything to him.
From now on, she’s careful who she’s kissing and whom she’s letting kiss her. When you’re crazy about someone, it’s natural that the kiss will mean more to you than to someone who doesn’t have feelings for you.
If you add alcohol to the equation, there you have it: A recipe for an unrequited romance (that is becoming more and more popular over time).
BOTTOM LINE: Be careful whom you kiss and everything will be just fine.
DISCLAIMER: There are also girls who kiss even if they are not interested in something more serious.
How Do You Know If A Guy Wants To Kiss You Over Text?
You know a guy wants to kiss you over text if he compliments your lips, sends you kiss emojis, or talks about kissing.
If a guy compliments your lips, then you know he’s doing it for a reason.
It means he’s thinking about kissing you in real life and that’s why he’s paying close attention to your lips on your photos.
Still, note that there are also guys who are obsessed with a girl’s lips so you can never know for sure whether they compliment your lips because they want to kiss you or just because they like the shape of your lips. If you’re not sure about it, listen to your intuition.
If he sends you a virtual kiss, then he basically already kissed you (virtually).
It’s only a matter of time when he will do it in real life as well. I don’t know about you but every time a guy sends me a kiss emoji, I imagine that we kissed in real life. Well, if he didn’t want to kiss you, he certainly wouldn’t send you such an emoji.
If he talks about kissing, he probably wants to kiss you.
He’s trying to find out whether you’re interested in kissing him as he’s interested in kissing you.
He might mention different kissing styles or the one that he prefers. He might ask you about your opinion regarding kissing, etc.
Also, he might text you openly: I want to kiss you. Still, not every guy has the courage to do that (especially if you still haven’t kissed).
How Do You Know If A Guy Wants You Badly?
You know that a guy wants you badly if he wants to spend as much time as possible with you, if he tells you how much he’s crazy about you and if he always texts you or calls you when you’re not together. Here are all the other signs that indicate a guy wants you badly:
He wants to spend every second with you
The guy I’m dating at the moment told me this the other day: You have no idea how much I like you. I want to spend every second with you!
Not even in my wildest dream did I expect a guy to tell me this but he’s not like any other guy I’ve met so far. I know for a fact that he’s totally crazy about me (if you’re reading this, know that I’m crazy about you too, which is obvious, right?).
Some guys won’t tell you that they want to spend every second with you but they will constantly ask you about your plans and when can they see you. If your guy is doing that, then you can be sure he wants you BADLY, girl.
He is caring and protective of you
I don’t know if you noticed but every guy has this hero instinct inside him. I’ll try to explain it in the simplest way possible.
When a guy is crazy about a girl, this hero instinct unlocks inside him and boosts his desire to be your hero.
In other words, when a guy is crazy about you, he will want to help you with every single task in your life, he will worry whether you’ve eaten something, and he will be ready to protect you from any harm.
He will let you know that you can count on him no matter what happens. That’s how you know that he’s totally smitten by you.
Making you feel special is his priority
Buying you a new dress is a nice way for a guy to show you how much you mean to him, but if a guy gives you a kiss on your forehead and hugs you every time like he’s hugging you for the last time, then you know he wants you badly.
A guy who wants to make you feel special will find thousands of new ways to do so.
That special guy I’m dating at the moment is truly a pro at this. I didn’t feel so good yesterday, so he knocked at my door unannounced and brought me gifts to make me feel better (even though the biggest gift to me was seeing him.)
He brought me a new perfume (that I can’t stop sniffing from my wrist as I’m writing this), protein bars (he knows I’m a gym freak), and lots of orange juice to fill me with vitamin C.
All those little things that he does for me are huge indicators that he’s totally devoted to making me feel happy and that’s how you’ll know it, too.
He tells you how much he’s smitten by you
Not every guy is open when it comes to his feelings, but if he tells you that he’s smitten by you, there’s no need to question his craziness about you or his intentions (unless he’s a player).
I know I’m mentioning him too much but the guy I’m dating at the moment told me this as well: I would cook for you (he has better cooking skills than anyone I know), clean your apartment, and do your laundry only to be able to look at you every day.
I still can’t believe he said that but he was damn serious about it. I wish for all of you to meet such a guy who will know how to express his feelings in a unique and romantic way.
He’s always texting you
When you’re not together, you know that he will text you or call you. How do you know it? Because that’s what he usually does!
This means that he wants to be an active part of your life. He wants to know how you’re feeling, what you’re doing and if you’re thinking about him as well.
He wants to be close to you because he wants you badly. It’s as simple as that.
He’s extra patient with you
Your happiness is a reflection of his own. Because of that, he doesn’t force you to do anything you don’t feel comfortable with.
He never initiates physical contact if he sees you’re not in the mood and you want to be alone. He’s extra patient with you and he always shows understanding.
Instead of imposing his own agenda, he’s ready to listen to you and understand how you’re feeling at the moment.
Sometimes, when words become superfluous, he doesn’t say anything. He just hugs you tight and you realize that his hug feels like home.
That’s how you know that you’re special to him and you mean to him more than you’re probably aware of.
You’ve met his friends and family (or you’re about to meet them)
Has he already introduced you to his friends and/or family? If yes, then you know how much you mean to him.
Obviously, he wants his close people to know that you are his special woman. He wants you to be a part of his friends and family. Why?
Because that man is, undoubtedly, high over heels in love with you (and his friends and family know that as well).
He’s always laughing at everything you say
Do you sometimes have this feeling like you’ve said nothing funny at all and he’s still dying from laughing? Do you often have this urge to ask him: What’s funny?
If you do, this is a great sign. Even though it’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard, it’s totally true that guys will laugh at everything you say if they are smitten by you. I’ve tested this multiple times and the theory is flawless.
This goes vice versa as well. If he’s trying really hard to make you laugh, he’s doing it because he wants you to feel relaxed and entertained in his company.
He wants to know EVERYTHING about you
What’s your biggest achievement in life? What do you think about cheating? What is the funniest childhood moment you still vividly remember?
If a guy wants you badly, he will ask you tons of questions because he will want to know everything about you. Your conversations will never be dull and you’ll never run out of new topics.
Obviously, it’s because he wants to know the real you. He’s collecting data about you, analyzing your personality, and falling for you a little more every day.
He’s a true gentleman
Another sure sign a guy wants you badly is him being a true gentleman.
He opens doors for you, he pays close attention to his appearance, he never makes you overthink or worry about anything. In a nutshell, he treats you like the real lady that you are.
You don’t even need to think about whether he’s a gentleman or not because you feel like he is. He treats you with respect and he goes out of his way to do things for you.
He doesn’t do any of that due to his ulterior motives. His only goal is to see you happy.
He’s honest to the core
Honesty is the best policy. You know that and, most importantly, he knows that. He’s honest about his past relationships, about his feelings for you, and everything else you can think of.
You can see in his eyes that he’s being genuine with you all the time. He has nothing to hide from you because he’s smitten by you. He wants you to know his true personality and he wants to build your relationship on pure honesty.
He’s always there for you
No matter what you are going through, where you are and how you are feeling, he will be there for you because he wants to be.
You know a guy wants you badly when your love life is not only what happens inside your bedroom or on your social media but encompasses every aspect of your life.
You know he wants you badly if he never makes excuses, if he acts like a real gentleman, and never makes you question his intentions.
Final Thoughts
Of all the signs he wants to kiss you, intense eye contact is the biggest sign of his deep affection and his desire to kiss you. A guy can tell you anything you want but if you don’t see it in his eyes, words will lose their meaning.
The same thing applies to a kiss. If a man kisses you like he really means it, then you will certainly feel it. If his kisses tell you more than his words, then you know he’s kissing you for all the right reasons.
“One day you will kiss a man you can’t breathe without, and find that breath is of little consequence.” – Karen Marie Moning
