Interesting - this thread has me trying to remember when first kisses happened with my dates - and honestly, it's kinda hard to remember!
Obviously, with the couple of guys that I slept with on a first date (after a relatively long prologue of communication by phone calls and messaging, mind you) the kissing happened on the first date. With CMM, we met first for a coffee date, no kissing etc there, but I believe he did kiss me at the end of our second encounter, which was a real dinner date. I got to wondering whether I ever kissed a guy first, but I think it has always been just mutual or at the guy's initiating. (I have asked guys out first though). Being from the boomer generation, I would start to think it was kinda weird if a guy hadn't kissed me by the third date. However, I think I'm good at showing that I'm interested and available for that kiss. YMMV
