You know how the Possom, the Kangal Fish, and the Rattlesnake are among the worst things a guy can do while kissing? Well, believe it or not, men also have preferences when it’s time to pucker up. These tips really aren’t difficult to incorporate into your kissing routine, so you’ll be new and improved by Valentine’s Day.
1. Pause before you go for the smooch. A well-timed pause before a kiss will increase the passion flowing between the two of you. And you’ll be able to savor the moment a little more.
2. Lean to the right; that way, you don’t risk bumping heads or some other awkward moment.
3. Close your eyes because most people look really funny when they’re kissing. If you kiss and peep, he might get the impression that you’re sizing him up, which will lead him to be self-conscious.
4. When it comes to kissing, nothing is sexier than a confident and firm, not overly aggressive woman, so take the lead.
5. “Just lip-to-lip contact is the missionary position of kissing,” said one of the men interviewed. Your hands should definitely get in on the action. It shows you’re enjoying yourself and are almost uncontrollable.

Once an ex-boyfriend and I had our eyes open while kissing. It wasn’t planned, it just happened, which is weird because I don’t exactly make a habit of opening my eyes while kissing. But anyway, it only lasted like a second or two at most. It was strangely, intensely, intimate. Too much to handle, almost, and I definitely didn’t feel close enough to him that I felt comfortable with it. Apparently it’s more intimate than sex to me, because I was regularly banging him at that point and had no problem with it

Kissing with your eyes open makes the other person look like a cyclops. I am pretty sure I normally go to the left when kissing my ex, and when we do go to the right its strange.

It sounds like you two have become accustomed and know what the other is going to do so to the left is ok. I wonder if handedness plays into it, if your right handed you TEND to lean right, not always of course. Once you know the other person well enough you can lean whatever way you want.
As to the article I would agree that the pause is good but also the woman in the picture has the right idea =)...to me personally.

Ooh, great topic! I love, love, love kissing! ECM, I wonder if you’re on to something with the person’s handedness. I’m left-handed, and I tend to lean to my left. For me, the perfect start to a kiss is when we’ve been oogling each other from afar, then we oogle each other face to face. A coy smile from either party or both, then he does the two-hand cupping of the face. Extra points if he plays with my hair. Those are my “things”, I guess. Then he goes in, but not all the way, and my nose brushes against his slightly bristly cheek, and his lip ever so slightly grazes my cheek. At this point, we open our eyes and look lustily at each other, then we both close them. Again, with both his hands cupping me, pulling my head a bit closer, his slightly parted lips softly press on mine. Then all hell can break loose from that point on!
Oh my God, I need a Fanta.

Isalbela, I am glad you at least know what beverage clams you down after such a.. delightful description of a good kiss. I have to think that there is something to leaning to whatever side your dominant hand is on. Bumping heads cna be a little bit of a mood kill but usually can be laughed off in a playful way, however if there is primal aniticpation built up I think its better not to ruin the momentum. I personally am a face caressing kind of guy but also like to get my hands involved, arms around the waist if its a kiss to someone I have been awaiting for a long time or been parte from and hands on their hips if it is a moment of tight bonding, letting her know I really do care. Not fingers through her hair are a fav of mine too, anything with hair, slipping them up from the bottom and just holding my hand there, (has its more sexual cousin: the bunch up the hair in your fist). These are reserved for when both she and I know there is a wall or countertop in our future. Now Im the one that needs a calming beverage. Sorry if my description was too detailed for some.
