    hey guys! i got something that has been really really bugging me.

    i've never actually had a very long term relationship and i've never even had a girlfriend. recently however i have been going on dates with someone who is gender queer (female bodied). all my sexual experiences have been with people i knew quite a while before we were anything more and so i'm unsure and very timid about initiating physical contact between us.

    last date, they broke the "physical boundary" and played with my hair but we're 4 dates in on tuesday and i want to initiate someone physical. i'd really like to kiss them! but i'm absofuckinglutely terrified.

    do you guys have an advice for someone who doesn't have a ton of experience "dating" about initiating physical relationships?

    I generally let them make the first move, I'm pretty shy.
    Though if she was really close to you you could just kiss her? Though I wouldn't know how to go about that unless her face was very close to yours

    Try kissing her cheek. Seems innocent enough.

    However, if you can sense she wants more just look her in the eyes and ask "Is it ok if I kiss you right now?" Then if she says yes, you know what to do! :grin:

    I can't say anything more beyond letting it come naturally. It all will come if she feels the same way :slight_smile:
