So I’ve been noticing a lot of folks asking about men kissing men basics lately. Figured I’d dump my own messy trial-and-error story here. Started totally clueless last year after matching with this dude on an app. We vibed chatting but when we met up? Awkward turtle mode activated.
The First Attempt Disaster
Went for a basic peck right in his living room. Bad idea. We bumped noses hard, my glasses got crooked, and I choked on my own spit. Felt like a damn comedy sketch. He laughed it off thankfully, but lesson learned: sitting on a stiff couch with zero privacy = guaranteed face collision.
Scouting Better Locations
After that dumpster fire, I tested spots like a scientist:
- Park benches – Look romantic but too many joggers staring
- Bar bathrooms – Smelled like bleach and desperation
- Movie theaters – Pitch black but sticky floors
Almost gave up till trying building rooftops at sunset. Magic! Nobody around, soft lighting, plus we could stand facing each other naturally. No furniture tripping us up.
How We Nailed It
Went back to that rooftop with dude #2 last month. Did three things different:
- Leaned against the wall – steady anchor point
- Started with cheek kisses – built up slowly
- Used one hand on his waist – gentle control
Zero nose crashes. Minimal slobber. Major win.
For Total Newbies
From my face-smashing phase, these spots actually work:
- Quiet parking garages (top floors, not creepy ones)
- Empty playgrounds after dark (swing sets rock for height alignment)
- Your own damn doorstep (good lighting + escape route)
Just avoid anywhere with drunk people, security cameras straight at your face, or aggressive pigeons. Trust me on the pigeons.
Whole thing took months of weird experiments to not suck at. Still cringe remembering that first couch catastrophe. But hey – if my dumb ass figured it out, anyone can.
