Firstly we'll get to the five ways by which you could kiss a friend out of the blue, with no preamble or even a hint that you're attracted to your friend.
#1 Kissing a friend when you're drunk
This is pretty much the safest way to kiss a friend and get away with it. And let's face it, more than half the first kisses between friends use this move. When you're out with this friend you like or at a party, have a few drinks and wait for the booze to kick in. And once you're feeling the buzz, use that as the perfect accidental excuse. Try and get the coziest spot next to your friend, preferably an isolated spot.
Start a conversation with your friend and eventually start whispering to your friend. Of course, you're *drunk*, aren't you? Whispering into each other's ears is completely acceptable when you're high!
And at some point of the conversation in between all the close facial contact, go right up and kiss your friend. The kiss may last a while longer if you've built a lot of sexual chemistry through all the body contact, but even if your friend's not drunk, you'd still be able to sneak in a quick kiss. And your friend can't really get upset or do anything about it, after all, you're drunk out of your mind!
#2 Playing truth or dare
Kissing a friend doesn't come easier than this. So if you're ever trying to figure how to kiss a friend, focus on arranging a drinking game like spin the bottle or truth or dare.
Sometimes, you may get a kiss or a lot more than that. But at other times, you may not always end up lucky and another friend may end up kissing the friend you want to kiss. But not to worry, if you didn't get a chance to kiss your friend during the game, just get drunk and go back to step #1!

This is a sneaky move, and it's another common ploy in getting to kiss a friend. Many people use this, and quite frankly, it works very well.
Have you just lost something of value and need some consoling? Everyone needs a friend they're down and need consoling. So call the friend you like and tell them how *depressed* you are and how much you'd appreciate it if they could come over to your place to cheer you up.
When your friend comes by to your place, snuggle up and hug your friend. Just stay in that position as you mumble your sorry ass story and explain how depressed you are. At some point, you'd know that your friend's pretty comfortable with the hug too. Now you can linger your hands on their back or go straight for the kiss. The kiss may last a while, or a few seconds. But if it does last, the kiss could lead both of you into bed and even go a lot further.
On the other hand, if your friend does take offense, you could apologize profusely and tell your friend you didn't know what came over you. Yeah right, you effing perv!

If you create an opportunity to create a quick successive series of questions and answers, you can move your face across when your friend's yelling into your ear, and hey, guess what you just did, you kissed your friend!

This kind of a situation may work in a porno flick and it's a great fantasy too, but it's just not something you should ever do. You may be really desperate or may have been looking for an opportunity like this since forever, but just don't do it. There are far easier ways, so why bother with this. It's just really perverse, and you just can't take advantage of a friend who trusts your company.
An opportunity may crop up some other day, but never kiss a friend if you find yourself in such a situation. Respect your friend and yourself, because if you do take advantage of a drunk friend, that makes you no different than a rapist.
#4 When your friend is grieving
Now it's natural to feel physically and emotionally connected when you're hugging a grieving friend, but don't use the closure and take advantage of the situation. If your friend makes the first move, then go right ahead. But if your friend just wants a shoulder to lean on at a difficult time, be there for your friend as a friend, not a lusty buddy.
So the next time you're wondering how to kiss a friend, look no further. This is as foolproof as it can get, especially when you're trying to get away with kissing a friend!
