Kissing someone for the first time may be tricky and fraught with nervousness. It may also not be enjoyable, but scientists say despite everything, there’s a lot involved than you may realise. The following are some of the things that happen to your body each time you kiss someone for the first time: • Sense of smell activated: Scientists say the lips have nerve endings that become stimulated upon kissing, leading to the activation of additional senses such as smell. • You de-stress: Instead of taking to drinks in order to de-stress, a study cited on NBC found that a mere 15-minute kissing session can dramatically decrease your level of the stress hormone, cortisol. You can also experience a rise in oxytocin, the brain’s feel-good chemical.

• It helps fight cholesterol: Kissing can have a positive impact on your blood lipid levels, according to researchers at the Western Journal of Communication. They say that romantic kissing can decrease serum cholesterol and increase overall relationship satisfaction for couples. • Kissing helps you ascertain how smart your partner is: Sloppy kisses enable you to assess if the person you’re kissing is a potential mate, according to research conducted by Oxford University. The scientists say the chemical makeup of saliva helps your body decide if the person you’re kissing would produce strong offspring. • You experience an adrenaline rush: When you kiss someone for the first time, your body will release a burst of adrenaline (the fight-or-flight chemical) which increases your heart rate, boosts your energy levels and gets the blood flowing. • Plenty happy chemicals produced: It’s not just adrenaline and oxytocin which your body produces. Other chemicals come flooding in too, making you feel happy afterwards. A Harvard professor of psychology, Justin Lehmiller, say when you kiss, your brain is flooded with dopamine — the very same chemical that is released when you do those things that you enjoy doing a lot.

How do you know someone is falling for you?

They show empathy — in good times and bad “Someone in love will care about your feelings and your well-being,” Dr. Flores said. “If he or she is able to show empathy or is upset when you are, not only do they have your back, but they also probably have strong feelings for you.”

1. They have fun with you even if the task at hand is not fun, per se The saying, "It’s not what you do, but who you're with" is popular for a reason — because it's true. Pay attention to the person who's always there for you, even when the task at hand is not outwardly a fun one, like helping you move. "A sign someone may be in love with you includes their ability to have fun with you even during mundane tasks," Dr. Flores said. "If they are happy to see you, no matter what the two of you are doing, it may be love." Kailen Rosenberg, elite matchmaker and founder of The Lodge Social Club, a dating application with a three-step vetting process that launched earlier this month, agrees. "The person will often go the 'extra mile' to help you with something — a project, a need, an errand, etc.," she told Business Insider.
