Do agree with this article that it's very important to hold hands when you are in a relationship?
Do you yourself hold hands with a romantic interest?

Any stories of doing this?

Hand holding is a must for me. If he's not open to that I don't want to know what else he might be uncomfortable with.

(Didn't read the article.)

I've been told that it's not just about holding hands, it's HOW you hold hands that counts. The most effective in terms of emotional or energetic exchange is interlocking the fingers. I guess that maximizes the number of receptors involved.

When I was a kid, a whole group of us went to a mall. Every one was a paired off except for this one girl and I. I went up to her and said, "It's kinda goofy that every one here is boyfriend/girlfriend. Do you just want to hold hands while we walk?" In hind site it seems so lame, but it worked. Later we exchanged hickies and I was put on restriction for two weeks. Oh well. You only live once HAHAHA

We never hold hands. He's usually 10ft in front of me and my arms just aren't that long...lol

LOL...no. What is funny is that he looks like he's walking slow because he has a long stride. For every step he takes I take 3. I have to run or power walk to keep up with him, so I just gave up.

Usually we have a kid or two with us when we are out. The older kids walk ahead with him and me and the youngers will walk behind.

I tend to date guys who are a bit testosterone-heavy. They tend to be either very reserved or rambunctiously gregarious - neither quality being one that you would associate with handholding. So when a guy like that reaches out and grabs my hand, it is a moment of significant intimacy for them - sometimes more than a kiss. Yet it's also such a childlike and sweet gesture. Kills me every time.

He sounds like true Kazanova!



I always hold hands, both of them.

Sometimes I have to use handcuffs and even duct tape!




Oh wait, you meant hold hands on a date?

The science in holding hands is friction between solids, the force/resistance of one body part against another which creates adhesion, thus getting clammy/sweaty hands; I don't see the point
