I am a high schooler who's been browsing TRP for around 8 months now. From what I have seen most of its tenants are spot on at my age but a lot of the writing about game/plating isn't accurate to my peers(maybe it's maturity). Anyway, I have seen improvements in all of my life which is why I came here for advice.

I have gone out with several girls but haven't gotten to sex yet. A problem I seem to have is losing girls because I am afraid to kiss them for the first time. After the first, I can kiss them again and go further, but I have a problem with kissing them for the first time. I think this goes beyond normal anxiety because I am comfortable touching girls even sexually before the kiss but locking lips itself gets me.

So my question is, has anyone had the same problem with kissing and gotten over it? Also, what is your perspective about plating or TRP in general as it applies to high school?
