y’all he hasn’t talked to me or said hi since the hand holding thing, even if we would see each other in public, what could that mean?

[Curiosity2006]

Well it could be the alcohol, it could be he subconsciously found it appealing grabbing your hand. If he kept an eye contact on you, or your hand during that incident it's most certainly the latter. If not, then let's say it's a good 50/50 chance he was into you.

Word to the wise though, stay away from drunk people XP Most life-long regrets happen around them/alcohol generally.

[oh_k789]

Nothing to add to what Curiosity said.

[theresyourgravy]

When he did it, he was still having conversation with others, but he wasn’t looking at me. Yeah I just got into college so the amount of drunk people I see on a daily is interesting

[Curiosity2006]

@theresyourgravy I had a friend who was stoned after a weed cigarette, and he kept holding my arm though we weren't a couple Because he didn't want me to go anywhere except being around him XP This could be your case, even if it's mere "friendship".

[Curiosity2006]

@update: Well then it could mean you're just friends and he was just drunk/his normal behaviour, or he could be into you but he's just too busy. It could mean nothing really. If you're into him yourself, take an initiative and talk to him about what he's been up to recently, what he wants to do professionally in the future. Grab some lunch together and see how it goes.

[FunnyGiy]

I assume he liked you. But if it made you uncomfortable then he shouldn’t have done that.

I try not to touch people too much. Because you really don’t know how someone will feel about it. Even if they don’t say something you could be making them uncomfortable.

Because I’m like that myself. I don’t like just being touched by people. Unless I like them.

[theresyourgravy]

oh no i was trying not to giggle, but honestly i get what you mean

[FunnyGiy]

Okay

[DoctorSex]

Sometimes young men feel the need to exercise their self confidence. As long as he was civil it would be safer to just enjoy the pleasant memory for yourself 😄. It sounds like you like him. But we have to use our brain first. A man is suitable when he approaches you with structure to his life. Not drunk... So, next.

Kind regards,

That is a bit weird, even when drinking you shouldn't get too touchy with people you don't know. Even if he likes you, he shouldn't be getting too handsy too quickly. Probably just using alcohol as an excuse for poor self control and a lack of respect for women in my opinion.

[theresyourgravy]

I don't know do you think i should ask why he did that? he seems somewhat of a trustworthy person

[mickmrly]

You can ask I guess. I'm just being cynical and guessing he is doing some sort of passive aggressive thing and doing weird things and then later on getting annoyed that you are questioning why he is doing it. I prefer being straightforward when meeting people and doing unexpected things is just complicating things.

[RealMarek]

Maybe, maybe not. If he’s not shy and hasn’t made any effort to chat with you afterward he’s either busy or not into you. If he’s shy, you might need to initiate conversation and show interest in him first if you want to see where things can go.

[Andres77]

don't judge anyone by their drinking. judge them by the fact that they drink and do stupid or unexplainable things. that's always a red flag.

[theresyourgravy]

what if he’s hardly drunk but always gets high

[Andres77]

Same thing. If one is using mind altering substances then they’re still responsible for everything that they do

[SnowedIn]

Reading the responses, I'm just going to underline what @Curiosity2006 and @WhitneySnow said. Can't add onto their insight.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

When people have drink in them, it can mean anything

[TheNameIsRob]

It’s difficult to know with the information you have provided. I wouldn’t read into it too much.

[RHK36]

Not enough info to tell, just ask him if you really want to know.

[Smartman5]

yes he may have held your hand for a long time because he was drinking

[Solitario_94]

He may have been a little too comfortable. It happens when you drink.

[WhitneySnow]

Maybe he likes you

[Danny_dan92]

Here’s an idea




Ask him

[User3191989]

Probably not. Probably had some glue on his hand

[BarryLiverstone]

Don’t think anything of it

[BarryLiverstone]

As I said don’t think anything of it, it’s no big deal

[Guardian45]

Yes, he was drunk and Yes, he likes you!

[Guardian45]

He could be shy!

[Nominal]

No, he drunk and want little love.

[QuietRunner]

I think he wanted you
