The Moth
The Moth Radio Hour: Menorahs, Presents and Palm Trees - December Holiday Stories

So I met this girl, and I really liked her. She was kind of a nerd, but nice. A nice, nerdy little girl. And I asked her out on a date, and our first date we had a wonderful time. But I didn't kiss her, I didn't even try to kiss her, because on the first date I just like to talk and listen and, you know, get to know the person. And then I asked her out on a second date.

Now the second date is when I usually, you know, go in for the kill. and I will attempt to kiss goodnight. But on our second date, I took her to this Italian restaurant, and whatever I had had so much onion and garlic in it that a Tic Tac would have just suffocated in my mouth. So I just, I didn't kiss her goodnight, I just sort of hugged her goodnight.

And then I asked her on the third date, and I thought, you know, I gotta kiss her tonight. I mean, if I don't kiss her tonight, she's gonna think I'm the shy, insecure coward, which I am, but I don't want her to know that. So on our third date, I took her to this jazz club. And this jazz club was like this dark, intimate club. And it was a couple days after Christmas.

The Moth Radio Hour: Menorahs, Presents and Palm Trees - December Holiday Stories

We had these pretty Christmas lights hanging from the ceiling. And her and I were sharing this cozy booth. And it was just a perfect moment to share our first kiss. It was very romantic. In fact, the piano player at the bar was singing the song, Isn't It Romantic. It was like, isn't it romantic? Merely to be young on a night like this. Isn't it romantic?

Every note of this song is like a lover's kiss. Sweet symbols in the moonlight. Do you think that I might fall in love perchance? Isn't it romantic? So the moment was screaming, kiss her! And then she told me about this New Year's Eve party she was going to and wanted to know if I wanted to go with her. And I said, yeah, sure.

And then I thought, you know, it'd be kind of cool if our first kiss was our New Year's Eve kiss. It'd be very symbolic, beginning of a new year, beginning of a new relationship.

So at that moment in my mind, I decided that was when I was going to kiss her, the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve, which meant I couldn't kiss her tonight because if I kissed her tonight, then our New Year's Eve kiss would be our second kiss. And that's just lame. But here's the thing. This nerd wanted me to kiss her tonight. She had her hand on my thigh. She's got her face close to mine.
