Who should make the first kiss: me or him?

Question - (26 March 2012) 1 Answers - (Newest, 6 April 2012)

Dear Cupid,

There's this guy I have been friends with for almost a year and we talk about everything. He comes over to hang out and sometimes orders takeout for us to eat well into the night. He is definitely a confidant and I've grown to like him more than friends. I would say the same for him, but he recently told me that he isn't looking for/wanting a relationship with anyone and it's made me leery about telling him how I feel.

Fast forward to last week. He comes over with the intentions of hanging over as usual and we talk for hours. In fact, I have to bring myself to tell him to leave. We were so caught up in conversation. Then he brings up how he never kisses a woman first and that its her duty to do it because he wants to respect her boundaries. He told me this once before, but he was reiterating this me as a way to suggest that I should be the first one to plant the kiss. I don't believe in giving a guy the first kiss; he should kiss me! And secondly, I didn't want to play into that ego of his that the "rule" only applies to him. So I never kissed him.

Am I right for feeling this way or did I just miss out on an opportunity to express how I internally feel?
