There's this almost immediate sense of, yes, I'd like more of this. But one thing that's remained the same is how much more memorable the first kiss of a relationship is than all the ones that come after. Thankfully, I've had many more first kisses since eighth grade that were so much less awkward. He leaned down, and well, you know how the rest of the story goes.
As I hurriedly walked away, I yelled behind me, "Well, you were never going to do anything." Next thing I knew, he had caught up to me. So I hugged him goodbye, and then quickly stood up on my tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. But after four trips around the block, I lost hope. One fall afternoon, I suggested we meet up to walk our dogs around the neighborhood, and I was pretty sure this was the moment it was going to happen. We sat next to each other every day on the bus and passed notes in pre-algebra, but pretty much avoided ever being alone together. At that point, my middle school boyfriend and I had been dating for a few months. For me, back in eighth grade, that very first dance looked like two strangers trying to avoid running into each other on the sidewalk. I like to think about the moments before a first kiss as a kind of dance. I'm Anita Rao, and this is Embodied - our show about sex, relationships and your health. I do remember kissing my first girlfriend as well, and that feels more like my first kiss. I wish I knew the person that I kissed first. And while I do remember my first kiss - it was making out in front of the group and making out for at least two minutes - it's embarrassing because I wish I had a better story. I kissed many different girls at that party. And at that party, they decided to play, essentially, spin the bottle. I was probably in sixth or seventh grade at a friend's birthday party. And every night it would just make me cringe.
And I thought he was very cute, but every night before we had to do the kiss, he would lick his lips. My first kiss was in a play when I was in eighth grade, and the boy I was playing opposite was the most popular boy in school. Just her hands on the back of my head, gripping it like she was a gorilla cracking open a coconut to eat. I haven't seen the picture since it made the rounds in middle school, but I do remember clearly is that you couldn't see her face. Apparently my friends were all watching, including Leslie, who had a camera. I sat next to her, and, suddenly, her tongue was halfway down my throat. My friends sent me into a room where Robin was sitting alone on a couch. At a classmate's party, word spread that she'd dumped him and that she liked me. She was going out with my best friend Ted. It happened when I was in middle school - Robin.
