I got my first lay from cold approaching a few weeks ago, while breaking this rule. I met a Japanese tourist on a Friday night, took her from the approach venue to a more isolated second venue, and kissed her about 5 minutes after we arrived. It was a light kiss, not a full-on makeout, to avoid setting off the fireworks too early.
I'm not sure if not kissing would have made a difference in this case. I was already escalating before the kiss -- holding her hand to cross a busy street, putting my arm around her, and playing with her hair. And she was a tourist with nothing else to do on a late Friday night. But it clearly didn't hurt and might have made her more attracted that I was bold enough to kiss her so soon after meeting her.
In response the kiss, she gave me a little trouble for why I approached her in public (shit test?) but I played it down and the tone of our interaction was positive. Two hours after my approach, we were in my apartment. She gave me no last-minute resistance and I got my Japanese flag that night!
Congrats dude.
