Putting my arm around my girlfriend?

[Anonymous]

Hey. So I recently asked a girl out and he said yes. I want to know if I should put my arm around her when we're walking/talking/etc. Do girls like it? I'm afraid it will be extremely awkward. This is my first real relationship. (I'm 13 in 8th grade). So basically, should I put my arm around her? And how? Around her waist, over her shoulde?

yeah you could. some girls like it. i do! but it might be more casual to just start with holding her hand if you're nervous. you can put your arm around her shoulder, just do it when you're walking together. or when you hug her just leave your arm around her waist when the hug ends, and do it that way

Turn around to her, and say...
"if you were a pirate, would you have your parrot here?" (Touch the shoulder closest to you.) "Or here?" (Stretch your arm behind her to touch her opposite shoulder)
Viola, my son. Your arm is now around this chick. Godspeed.

Hold her hand but if watch movie over shoulders is good. Plus if u wanna know how to impress open door or hold her books for her. Just act like a gentleman just a tip :-)

I feel awkward when guys put their arms around me, I'd much rather hold their hand

Hold her hand. Don't put your arm around her. That's kind of awkward.
