Female Puberty Issues / Question
Published: November 1, 2000
Dear TeenHealthFX,
My boyfriend is into French kissing and making out. I would be too but I don't know how to French kiss/make out. Can you give me some pointers on how to do this stuff and be good at it, so I can please my boyfriend and not be humiliated in front of everybody? I really need some advice on how to make out/French kiss!!!!! Thank you.

Dear French Kissing,
TeenHealthFX understands how difficult it is learning to kiss. It is not something that comes naturally. TeenHealthFX doesn't know how old you and your boyfriend are. If there is a big age difference between the two of you it might affect the way you feel about kissing. We're concerned about you feeling that you would be humiliated if you didn't kiss your boyfriend the way he wanted. That sounds like a lot of pressure! If he really cared for you he wouldn't be telling anyone else, he would be concentrating on talking to you about what he liked and didn't like.
Kissing is like any new skill - it takes practice and patience. Unlike other skills, it also takes maturity and being in a relationship that is comfortable for you and where you trust the other person. If you are feeling like your boyfriend is going to talk to his friends about how you kiss, it means he may not be worth your time.
Good luck.
