It really depends on the party! If it's a really small party or there are family members present, you might want to wait until later to kiss him. If you're at a bigger party with all of your friends, and everyone's milling about and chatting, it seems totally fine to kiss your boyfriend there! Keep it low-key, though, since there are people present.

Question

Is it okay to just go for it? If you know he's okay with it, can you just do it?

Totally! If you know he's into you and wants to kiss you, you should feel confident about kissing him. Just make sure you choose a place that's relatively private for the kiss. Start with a peck and work your way up to steamier kisses if the time feels right and he seems receptive.

Question

What if there are other people around?

Community Answer

Many people don't feel comfortable kissing in front of others, so don't let someone pressure you to. If you would like to but feel nervous about it, try a quick peck or a kiss on the cheek.

Question

What if I have bad breath?

Community Answer

If you often have bad breath, carry around breath mints, chewing gum, or at least a bottle of water. If you're about to kiss someone and you know your breath is bad, avoid tongues and remember to breathe through your nose.

Question

I've been talking to a boy online and haven't met him in person yet. He says he wants to kiss me the first time we meet but I don't know if that's the right decision.

Community Answer

You cannot trust someone you've only talked to online or through texting, even if you think you know them well. Talk to your parents, teacher, or another adult immediately. Do not meet him in person without a trusted adult accompanying you; you could be kidnapped or worse.

Question

How old do you have to be to kiss a boy?

Community Answer

The important part is that you both feel ready. It's a good idea to choose someone close to your own age (no more than a year or two apart).

Question

What if I kiss him and he says, "I don't like you like that"?

Community Answer

If this is a hypothetical situation, you'd simply apologize and tell him you misread the signals. If it already happened, don't feel bad; even though it's embarrassing, this sort of thing happens to just about everyone at some point in their lives. It took a lot of courage and confidence for you to make the first move; though it didn't work out for you this time, as the saying goes, "Fortune favors the bold." Don't let this awkward moment get to you.
