Do you play the #IfOnly game? It is a mind trap that steals your self-worth. nicoleodell.com/?p=10973 By @_whatevergirls #SelfEsteem
Have you ever found yourself in the middle of the “if only” trap? I have. It started when I was in the sixth grade and sometimes I still get in this trap as a 37 year old wife and mother.… [more]

My first kiss was either at 13 or 14 I’m not sure. Either way I was TOO young! Of course, at the time I didn’t think so, but really, it was too soon. I was allowed to date at 14 on a limited basis. That also was too soon for ‘alone’ dates.
I’d love to hear from those who are waiting for marriage for their first kiss. I admire the commitment and dedication that kind of decision takes. We went to a wedding last fall of a couple who had waited for that moment–”you may kiss your bride”–to experience their first kiss. The minister said, “So as not to awaken desire before it’s time, ….. and ….. have waited until now…” I thought “Wow, that’s cool!”
I know that decision isn’t for everyone, but a kiss should be special, it should mean something. If you’re still waiting, don’t get in a hurry! It will be worth the wait.
I agree–really want to hear from some of the wait-unti-married people!
My first kiss came accidently, it wasn’t actually me who did it on purpose! It was weird, I was just standing in class and then this boy kissed me! Totally embarrasing.. Now, if I get married, I will count that as my first kiss.
