Dear Help With French Kissing,
There is no real set of rules when it comes to French kissing (open mouth kissing). The best way to learn is to let it happen naturally and not rush into it because you feel pressured. You should be relaxed with the person that you are with and try to have a sense of humor.
Some people really enjoy French kissing while others may not care for it. Ultimately it is up to you to decide how you feel about it.
Keep in mind that French kissing is an easy way to transmit colds and other viruses, like Herpes. This means be careful who you do this activity with. Try to communicate with each other not only about colds and viruses, but about what feels good and what does not.
