So, I'm 22, male, college student....I've been talking and hanging with this girl the past two weeks and we've been texting each other, flirting, talking for hours---so we went on a first date last night at the beach. Went to a club, got some drinks, walked around some boating area dock, then went to the beach, sat by a few abandoned bonfires, trying to keep them "alive" by throwing sticks, cardboard in there. We were joking talking, flirting, good conversation. It was fun. But then we got to the intimate part. We were laying down and we started kissing (midnight). She loved it and we cuddled afterwards and went in her car and cuddled some more. But me...everything was great until the kissing...I even liked the cuddling. I just didn't feel any chemistry, but I enjoyed everything else. In my mind, I tended to list all the things wrong...didn't feel right, didn't get into it, etc.
So this is the first girl I've been on a date with that I was very aware could lead to actual dating, etc,

since my last one-year, serious relationship ended (last summer). Since then I've been on first dates, but it turned out to be more just hanging out. No kisses, just maybe a hug. Besides that it was just people having conversation over dinner. This girl last night if the first one since my ex that I actually made out with (I kissed one other girl on a date months ago, but it didn't go past the first date). This was the first girl I knew I could pursue and it would lead somewhere. So my question is, is it normal to feel awkward and not feel anything the first time you really kiss someone else after your ex? I mean first time me and my ex kissed, I actually didn't like it too much. It was...awkward, I didn't feel too much, it was messy, etc. But how that turned out is we ended up kissing, making out all the time and loved it. So do I just need to give this girl a chance, since I do enjoy talking to and hanging out and everything else on the date was good? I wanna hear all fo your stories

the first time you date someone since a serious relationship. Normal to not like the kissing at first because you're so used to someone else? Or do you think it means I'm not ready to date? I was so excited about this date and then got depressed afterwards because I feel like now this proves I'm not ready to date which sucks because I do like her. I'm just soo confused!
