Damn this guy can't kiss!, is that ever possible? Options

I kissed my boyfriend yesterday but it was nothing like what I hope it would be. He can't kiss...not insulting him or nothing but it questions me and him. Is it the chemistry between us? I don't get it.. I 'm not that even sure if I like him as much as he does. He really does like me and he is really shy with me and when we talk it seems I keep talking to end the awkward silences. He says he is shy because he likes me "a lot". But I hate not talking to him like a friend...it's always awkward for me...and not him.
I don't understand should I end it?
Should I try to "teach" him to kiss?
How can you teach someone to kiss?

Hahahah, I have had this problem. My second girlfriend was a terrible kisser.

Here's what you have to do:

Don't tell him he's a bad kisser. That will just make him feel terrible. He will become self conscious, and you will feel bad. Instead, tell him how you like to be kissed. Say things like, "I like it when you kiss me like this.", then immediately show him how you want to be kissed.

Also, don't feel bad for telling him to you like to be kissed. He's a newbie, and you need to give him a break. You weren't perfect when you learned how to kiss. The more you guys kiss the better you'll get at it. You'll get to know each others kissing methods, and things will become more natural.

I remember when me and Holly kissed for the first time. I really didn't know what to do (I hadn't really kissed anyone in about 2-3 years), and I don't think she really knew what she was doing either. It didn't take long though. After a few minutes, we got to know each others and naturally started kissing in a way that was complimentary. Maybe, were just naturals (as many people are).

Any way, best thing you can do is encourage him to kiss another way by physically showing him how.

Very true

It's something that takes a little work, but does settle down into a noticable 'style'.
