Once they've pressed their lips against yours, you can try to position your top lip over their top lip so your bottom lip matches up with the middle of their lips, or vice versa. Do this for no longer than five seconds. Keeping this time limit in mind will ensure you don't go into full make-out mode immediately. That can be a bit overwhelming for a first kiss, but if the passion is there and it feels right to you and your date, go for it. If the moment feels right, go for it.
A first kiss doesn't have to be technically "perfect" to make both participants weak in the knees. If you're already smitten with each other, you'll swoon no matter what. So remember to relax, and just let the kiss happen. If all things go well, you'll have so many other kisses with your special someone that neither of you will even remember what the first one was like. You'll remember how it felt, of course, but you won't remember each and every little detail. If you and your date have chemistry, your first kiss will tell you — literally.

One time I was out on a date with someone who was too good for me. Subject for another time: So I was petrified. But drinks had gone well, and I was walking her home, through a big fluffy snowstorm. She was giggling melodiously — which was tremendous news. If you can make somebody laugh, they probably want you to make them do other things, too.
But, as we were standing on the street corner, a wave of idiocy-inducing anxiety took me over. So I grabbed her head and we began kissing passionately. In my state of wonder, I was so oblivious that I was feverishly manhandling the side of her head.
It became a cute running joke, and we kept dating. There are all sorts of good first kisses. One of my favorite relationships started when we kissed on a misty night in a forest after we broke into an old theater and waltzed on a darkened stage.

Don't stress too much! Rest your hands on his neck or shoulders to pull him closer. Rest them on his shoulders, chest, or sides of his face and gently pull him closer.
