I (23F) just met a guy (21M) on a dating app. I like everyone else hate the apps, but I live in a small town and work in an office with 8 people who are all married, so my options are dating apps or nothing.
I matched with this guy a little over a week ago, and we have been talking nonstop everyday over our phone numbers. All other times I've been on dating apps, the conversations took months to get to the amount of banter and comfortability we have right now if at all. He's not being all annoying and nonchalant, but he also doesn't seem to be love bombing, as our conversations are generally just talking about random stuff and not looks or anything sexually charged, which is a breath of fresh air for once.
He pretty quickly asked if he could take me out on a date (which is literally the first time that's happened to me, I normally have to prompt it which I don't like).
I have never been kissed before, but I've lost my virginity. Long story short, my ex was an asshole, and we rushed into things, but I wanted the first kiss to be more special than how we rushed the other stuff. We didn't get that far, obviously.
I do really like this guy so far, and if things got as far as a kiss, I would be fine with that. My fear is that he is going to kiss me and I'm going to be horrible at it and it's going to be a deal breaker for him. He doesn't seem like the type, but then again, I understand that intimacy is important in a relationship to a lot of people.
In my head, I want to tell him beforehand so that if I'm bad at it, he knows why, but then it's going to be awkward because I know I would assume someone was a virgin if they said that. Then it opens a whole can of worms that I don't really want to tell him about with my ex and all, until I can trust him.
I think I know the answer is to say nothing, but honestly, any tips for me? I literally have no idea what I'm doing. 😅
