    Herself is always looking to hold hands,even when walking the dog

    Maybe a tad funny but it annoys me at times...maybe i want to swing my hands when walking or put them in my pocket

    You still can and it'd be a whole load more fun too :D

    My husband kind of insists at times.
    I don't mind it, to be honest, but I'd rarely initiate it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    I love holding hands with my Husband. Always will:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    Yes, yes I do. :)

    Hypothetically speaking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,510 ✭✭✭nikpmup


    Yep, hold hands or he puts his arm around my shoulders.

    If only I had a partner :rolleyes:

    Yiou'll never meet anybody if you don't stop wilfully misusing the roll-eyes.

    I love holding hands with my bf. even if we are just sitting watching a movie I like to have some form of physical contact.

    Unfortunately he doesn't really feel comfortable holding hands etc with another guy in public, but that's a different story.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,557 ✭✭✭KeithM89


    She doesnt have any arms so i use a leash.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,785 ✭✭✭Ihatecuddles-old


    I like it when we are lying in bed, when we hold hands and walk we go out of sync and bash into each other.

    He has really sexy hands :o I always want to touch them!

    Never understood how people can walk like that.....

    On the holding hands thing. Thanks for the reminder. I should do it more often!

    It's manageable if one of you is a shortarse


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    Depends on the partner and only if I'm drunk.

    Not really unless your walk is in sync and then it looks like a scene from Doctor who when he's being attacked by some slow walking robot person.

    Thread needs more humming of this :D



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed


    It's not really my thing but sometimes when I've a massive lapse of character from drinking (drinking is part of my character, so I don't mean that) I sometimes would've done it the odd time. It's not so bad really


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,435 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    At the start of a walk ya for ten or fifteen minutes but then it get uncomfortable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,448 ✭✭✭crockholm


    I don't really do it much in Ireland, told her that it's kind of frowned upon in Ireland.I tend to do it more on the continent. Ditto for most forms of PDA,think I might have used catholicism as a scapegoat,and warned her that it's not accecptable in Ireland (she's nominal Lutheran)

    Just wipe your sweaty hands on her.

    We generally link arms and do the funny walk from the Monkees.

    At least you'd only have to hold your own hand though.

    The monstrous bitch!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    I like holding my girlfriend s hand I've no issue showing affection to her in public. But at same time we keep the wearing the face off each other **** to private no one else needs to see that.

    The only thing is lately I'm finding it harder to hold her hand walking cause she's pregnant and I walk much faster then her so she's kinda dragging me back at this stage ha.

    I never found the whole arm over shoulder thing standing comfortable I'm 6ft4 ffs!

    I figured that was the intent. It was just terrible though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    Yeah, I think it's important. The little things and all that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38 vauraine


    I like a bit of hand holding or cuddling. But only for 5 or 10 minutes and then I get a bit claustrophobic. One of the great things about being single is not having a sweaty hairy thing trying to give you a cuddle in the mornings!

    And I could never, ever get the hang of the arm around the shoulders walk! It's so awkward.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,975 ✭✭✭W.Shakes-Beer


    I have no problem holding my partners hand at all. In fact I'm quite proud to.

    When I'm with her it does feel more strange if I didn't hold her hand and even while sitting she'll usually take mine.

    It's not being PDA on purpose, it's just what we do.

    The arm over shoulder thing, never took to it. The odd time will walk with my arm around her waist but if we go out of sync we end up bashing eachother with our hips and then shove eachother with our hips :P

    She also likes my arse pocket if there's nobody around :P

    But yeah, each to their own, every couple is different.
