How To Lose A Guy In Three Days

I guarantee you that you've never experienced a date like the one I experienced last night. In fact, I'm still a little in shock, although I'm definitely laughing about it already.

I called K around 7:30, and he came over to watch Ocean's 13 with me (side note: I could have sworn I never saw Ocean's 13, but apparently I did, at some point). It was fun, and we cuddled, which was nice but not earth-shattering. When the movie was over, I walked him to the door and kissed him goodnight. HERE COMES THE WEIRD PART. Right after I kissed him, he pulled away and told me that he doesn't like kissing. He said, and I quote, "Lip stuff is weird". Apparently, he wants to date me, but not kiss me. EVER. I'm not so sure I'm okay with this. In fact, it's kind of a deal-breaker for me because I think it's really important to feel comfortable physically with someone you're in a relationship with. Honestly, if he doesn't enjoy kissing, then it's probably because I'm not the right girl for him. And he's definitely not the right guy for me because I want a boy who will actually kiss me. There's really no point in dating him if all we're ever going to do is hold hands and cuddle; I have my girl friends for that. I am such a physical, touchy-feely kind of girl that I would hate being in a relationship that didn't include kissing and being affectionate in physical ways.

Unfortunately, K seems to be under the impression that we're still going to date. I did tell him that it was okay that he doesn't want to kiss, and that I would call him, but I really just needed time to process and decide what to do. He texted me and asked if I want to watch a movie with him tomorrow (another side note: he also seems to be under the impression that he gets first dibs on my free time now), but I told him I didn't have time for a movie. We're going to get coffee instead, and I will inform him (gently) that I think we should just be friends. I imagine that he'll be a little confused, but I honestly think that if you tell a girl you don't want to kiss, you have to expect that she might not want to date you anymore.

That about sums up my love life right now. Yep.
