Is it normal to kiss before dating?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes. Plenty of people kiss before they consider themselves officially dating, while others prefer to wait until they’ve gone on a few dates.
A kiss can be a way to see whether there’s chemistry, not a promise that you’re a couple. People use “dating” to mean different things, too: some mean going on dates, and others mean being in an established relationship.
There’s no required order. What matters is that you both want to kiss and are on the same page about what it means—or doesn’t mean.
