Do guys like it when girls hold their arm (bicep) when walking or is regular hand holding better?

Hold the arm

Just hold hands

Hold the waist

No touching please

Try somewhere else

For me and my girlfriend if she is in super shy mode she does hands and then hugs my waist if she is in panic attack mode and then just shoves her face into my back XD. Which makes then really difficult to navigate busy areas as I have to remind her to pick up her feet to get over curbs or she knocks us both over lmao.

[Asker]

Aw that’s cute, she must feel safe around you! Are you bothered by it at all tho?

[Pyrofox]

Not in the least, I've made it clear that one of the things I'm gonna do is teach her to be able to accept her surroundings again. Even if means facing her agoraphobia head on. And I promised to be by her side for it all.

Any form of holding when walking with her is something I'd love, but if she held me by the arm, it would make me feel like she really trusts me as her protector. I think my testosterone would spike, too. Lol

[Asker]

Ah okay, my boyfriend is kinda awkward with hand holding but he seems to enjoy arm holding maybe he feels the same way as you do about it lol

[_deeznuts]

over the shoulder is my fav

[JohnK123]

Hey u could be someone’s table top

[_deeznuts]

@JohnK123 boi shut up

[Asker]

Oh yeah it does feel awesome, do you just hold his hand while his hand rests on your shoulder then?

[_deeznuts]

no i usally put my arm around his waist, its a lot more comfortable

[Asker]

Oh cool, my boyfriend actually prefers it that way too but I have a hard time walking when he does that lmao

[_deeznuts]

lmao its really hard to walk like that, I just hold hands then but its really comfy for sitting down.

[Asker]

Yess, I love doing that while sitting down. Makes me feel super loved. Anyway, thanks for sharing your opinion, I wish you all the best!

[_deeznuts]

thank you, you too<33

[JohnK123]

Wdym she’s a bully

[_deeznuts]

@JohnK123 i am the nicest person known to man

[_deeznuts]

thanks for MHO!

[JohnK123]

Ur welcome

[RavVid]

There are a lot of different ways of holding on AND ALL OF THEM are good. But I do like it when a girl tucks her hand into the crook of my arm. It is sweet and a little more formal

[Asker]

Ah okay, I just started doing that with him and he seems to be more comfortable with that compared to just holding hands

[IsoUser]

It personally doesn't matter to me holding hands or around waste or the arm etc. for some girls around the waist is to personal but as a typical guy I don't think that it is I am just happy to be with her but then again that's just me.

[Asker]

Yeah walking while having him hold me on the waist gets kinda hard sometimes, especially since he’s much taller and I’d have to keep up with his pace but with regular hand holding I feel more free

[IsoUser]

I agree holding hands makes life much easier plus it shows that the girl and guy are close I think

[Asker]

I agree, I just wish that my boyfriend would be more comfortable with it lol

[NakedRob]

A, B, and C are all good; whichever she prefers at the given time.

[Asker]

I see, thanks for sharing your opinion!

[Whatever2929292]

I like it all! Long as I like her

[Asker]

Oh yeah, wouldn’t want just anyone random holding your hand

[Whatever2929292]

Asker yea you're right! Even if it was someone attractive it would still be weird. If it was someone not attractive then things would be really weird.

[Whatever2929292]

If it is a date. Significant other like a girlfriend or fiancé or wife or even just a friend whose a girl. (long as I am comfortable with her like that) Then yea I like it

[Asker]

If it’s a date how soon do you think is too soon to start holding hands? I want to initiate but I don't know if it’s appropriate

[Whatever2929292]

Asker this really depends. Some things develop faster then others. I would say just go for it! I know you're nervous if he pulls away or seems uncomfortable or whatever then don't.

You could even ask him. How would you feel about holding hands? That or just kind of lightly touch his hand and see how he responds.

But be respectful about it. If he isn't ready for it.

But I say I think you're going to be alright. This depends on the guy and the relationship.

[Whatever2929292]

You know at some point someone has to initiate something or it will never happen. I say just try it. Don't force anything. Again you could always ask him how he would feel about doing something before you do it.

You could also just lightly touch him and if he is uncomfortable say you're sorry and respect that.

To be honest Being nervous is kind of the thrill in things sometimes. But I do understand that you have respect for his personal boundaries which is good.

[Asker]

We’ve actually hugged, kissed and had sex but whenever we go out we just walk side by side kinda awkwardly. I’ve asked if he’s okay with holding hands he said he gets kinda awkward with it but he likes it. I tried holding his hand and he was just stiff and awkward which is kinda discouraging lol

I think he’s probably just not really into PDA, I will try just holding his arm later maybe he’ll feel less awkward. Do you think that’s a good idea?

[Whatever2929292]

Maybe you could ask him but yea go ahead and try it. Though I will tell you this and I am not trying to pass judgment. Personally I don't feel sex before marriage is a good thing. I think it makes bonds to someone that you might not be with forever.

Risks of STD's, STI's, pregnancies, etc.

But I am happy for you and yea go ahead and try it

[Asker]

Okay I will give it a go. Thanks so much for the input!!

[Whatever2929292]

You're very welcome! Loved chatting with you!

[Whatever2929292]

Just be understanding and respectful, if he does not want to. But I think things will work out honestly

[Asker]

Yep I definitely wouldn’t want him to be uncomfortable so I will make sure to ask about his boundaries. Thanks and I wish you the best!

[Whatever2929292]

Thanks and you too! I wish you the best as well!

[juliawright]

Hand holding

[Asker]

It’s the best

[Anonymous]
