The kiss you will never forget

Tweet

It doesn't have to be your first kiss. It's said the first kiss could never be forgotten. Of course, it was the first one. But has ever happened to you that you remember a particular kiss and you don't know why? Not your first love, not your actual partner, not a particularly hot kiss. I'll share my experience with you, so you could help me understand, maybe, or tell me if you feel the same. Summer '98.I was 17 and I went to Dublin to study English. I went to a pub with my classmates. "The riding horse" was the name of the pub, if I'm not wrong. Now that I think about it our language level wasn't so high, because some of my classmates were discussing the usage of the verb "to regret". I didn't know its meaning, and I remember asking the group of guys sitting near to us. I remember this guy, pale complexion, black hair, answering: "To be very very sorry about something". I don't know how we happened to be sitting near to each other, chatting for a bit. He told me his name, which I don't remember. I always found it difficult to understand the spelling of Irish names. He told me he played the piano. I didn't think too much of that conversation, I thought he coldn't be interested in me. After, while I was chatting with some other people, he suddenly came toward my direction. His group was getting ready to take off, and he was greeting me goodbye. I smiled, he came nearer and bent a little, I thought he was going to kiss me on the cheeks, like I would have done here in Italy with friends, but he actually kissed me on the lips. And, well, I don't really know for how long wi did kiss, I think my mind went blank for some moments. I slightly pushed him away and said sorry. I watched him standing on front of the door for a while, staring be back, but I had no courage to follow him. I never saw him again. And I think I couldn't have understood the meaning of "regret" in a more effective way. Has ever happened anything similar to you? How was your unforgettable kiss like?
