BUT here is the catch: I find after the first few dates guys want to start holding hands, ask for hugs, want to couch cuddle while watching a movie. This causes emotional bonding. It sorta creates a non-verbal singular commitment. I think this happens because people are lonely and starved for physical connection.
Right now there are two guys I'm interested in and want to get to know as friends on coffee dates. The first guy, though, has been more physical (holding hands, hugs, cuddling on couch) which makes it complicated when I want to also continue to get to know the second guy. Now it is getting to the point where it is difficult to reverse the physical with the first, but it might be the ultimate answer to this conundrum. Likely, those three things probably shouldn't have been started in the first place.
What are your guys' thoughts? Does hand-holding, hugs, and cuddles mean that much to a guy?
