I believe that Holden kissed Jane because he had very strong feelings for her for a long timebut dn't know how to confront her about it so he chose to do this instead

I think Holden keeps bringing up the idea of him and Jane in a relationship because he wants to have one with her sense he keeps bringing up good memories of them together. Holden was also going crazy when he found out Jane was going out on a date with stradlater, specially because stradlater is a player.

I think that this shows that Holden may of had some feelings for Jane back then and maybe that is one of the reasons he does not want to see her or talk to her now because he is worried of getting those feelings again

Holden "kissed" Jane in order to comfort her. As Jane was crying after her stepfather asked her where are the cigarettes, Holden kissed her all over her face, but she didn't let him kiss her on her mouth in order to comfort her.

Since Holden kissed her in all areas on her face except her mouth, maybe becuase he cared more about her feelings then he thought. It seemed that he was trying to get her to stop crying. Since she stopped, he didn't get a chance to neck her. This shows that maybe even back then he started to care about others feelings as well as his own.

Stradlater didn't even call her by the right name when they first started talking. All he cares about is the physical romance. Holden worries about her, and deeply cares for her regardless if feelings are involved. Holden also has known her much longer and has a deeper connection.

a good reason would be that Holden understands Jane more and knew her while they were kids, which means that Holden can connect to Jane on an emotional level while Stradlater cannot.
