the silliest question...

... is, "Can I kiss you?"  
If you don't know the answer and feel inclined to ask, maybe you should wait.  Or, maybe not.  Maybe you should stick your neck out there (quite literally), and go for it.  ("Freedom lies in begin bold." -Robert Frost)  Nothing takes the romance out of the moment like asking permission.  If you want to be kissed, it disturbs the spontaneity.  If you don't want to be kissed, you don't say "no" anyway (except for this one time, I did, and that may have actually been the moment I most desired the liplock...  long story).  Plus, you always have the head-turn on reserve, and that can't be much worse than saying "no."  And, why would you do that, anyway?

"A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous." - Ingrid Bergman
