Great!
I hope you are no older than 15 though.
If you are: Start kissing lots of girls.
EDIT: You are 17...that's "ok" but, honestly, you need to get a lot more experience, as soon as possible. Otherwise, the whole 40 year old virgin thing may happen to you. Although there is nothing wrong with that per say...I don't think you want to go that route.
Kiss any girl you find at least slightly attractive that will let you kiss her/kiss back.
Once you do it a few times, your confidence will go up a lot, and then you won't feel like you are too far behind...sorta speak.
Happy for you though!
I had my first kiss when I was 15. My first kiss was actually a full-on makeout, and it was fucking disgusting. She was a horrible kisser. Sloppy as fuck.
I learned how to kiss from movies and TV, and I think I can honestly say, I'm a "pretty good" kisser. Not OK, but slightly above it, or a little more. I hope this is even a conservative estimate (which I think it is.)
So yes, you can learn how to kiss from movies/TV.
I've kissed quite a few, more than I can remember by now. I'm 18. I gradually improved after my first kiss, but after probably 5 times, I had it pretty much down.
If you ever have an awkward kiss, it wasn't necessarily your/her fault or you/her are bad kissers, a lot is about timing and intuition.
