Who Makes the First Move?
If someone doesn't make a move, don't immediately assume you're not
attractive enough. Find out what else is going on with that person (another
relationship, inexperience, fear of rejection, embarrassment about themselves,
their body, sex). Take a risk and state your own interest.
Cybil did the right thing. On her next date with Howard, she was open with
him and said, "I've really enjoyed being with you, and I wonder why we
haven't kissed because we've had a great time, and I wanted to kiss you."
Thankfully, Howard was willing to be equally honest. He explained that he was
afraid of making moves too quickly and that Cybil might consider him too
forward. Howard's openness about his fear, and Cybil's reassurance, were just
the right triggers to give them permission for their first kiss.
