First Kiss???
I was chatting online with members of my grammar school class. The subject of boyfriend/girlfriends came up.
My first kiss with a person not a sibling came near the end of my second grade year. Doris M. and I walked home from school the same way. When I didn't stay at school to play ball i walked with Doris home. She started asking me If I had ever kissed a girl. I said "Yes, I have three older sisters, they kiss on me and hug me all the time" She said "sisters don't count" Have you ever kissed a girlfriend?" I wanted to lie and say yes, to seem more worldly and mature than my almost 7 years. But told the truth cause I knew she would ask who, and i would have to tell her a name of someone we both knew. She then says "Do you want to kiss me? I have never kissed a boy and all the girls are talking about what its like, They say its really nice, but you might have a baby if you let a boy stick his tongue in your mouth" I told her Sure I'll kiss you, but no tongue cause I don't want you to get pregnant "
She tells me it has to be on the mouth or it don't count, So i manned up and stood on my tip toes and kissed her on her mouth. For almost 5 seconds, to make sure it would count. I was less than enthralled, because she was taller and my calves weren't used to tippy toeing that long. When the kiss was over, Doris says loudly "WELL SHOOT FIRE! That wouldn't Nothing A Tall! My male ego managed to survive this less than glowing review of my kissing ability.
The worst part of this was my sister Robin saw me kissing Doris from the front porch of our house a couple of blocks away. Doris was a redhead, and she started calling me Charlie Brown because we both had a little redheaded girlfriend. This nickname stuck with me till middle school.
My first "Romantic Kiss" was with Shelia in 1972 before i started middle school. Shec was new to the neighborhood, and much more experienced in the ways of love or at least making out. I'm pretty sure i rubbed her breasts out side her shirt if they were where breasts normally are, but all I could feel was her training bra. Once again my sister Robin found out and told Shelia I wasn't even in 7th grade and only 12 years old. Shelia dumped me like a plate full of leftover Taco Bell left out of the fridge. She informed me she didn't make out with anyone who wasn't at least a teenager!

So when was everyones first kiss?
This is my first poll so be gentle!
