Cant take your hands off her?
 

Has it ever happened to you where you've been in a relationship where you simply just cannot take your hands off the other person? And I dont mean sexually or just sexually, it can be as simple as just touching? My girlfriend and I are like that and I absolutely love it. Yesterday, we had to make a 3 hour trip in the morning and back in the afternoon, we left at 7 am from her house and at night went to the bullfights here in Costa Rica with her mom and younger brother and even at 1 am, bout 16 hours after we first saw each other we were still ike this, hugging, kissing, touching......

Anyone have similar experiences they can share or opinions on this?

It is nothing unusual for couples. My girlfriend and I are usually kissing, hugging, touching, holding hands, and etc all the time.

ratbastid and I have been together for 12 years and we're still like that. I love holding his hand when we're together, or having him put his arms around me, or just running a hand along his back to say "hi, I'm here." We try not to be too mushy in public, but I just can't help myself sometimes :)

but, all the time? Im the type of guy that likes to hold hands with a girl when Im with her but with her it just doesnt stop there, when Im driving, for example I have my hand on her leg, running it up and down, she has her hand on my hand or arm and the other playing with my her and we're like this 99% of the time.

My wife and I have been together over 12 years, and we still hold hands, touch, etc., what seems like all the time. Althought, she likes me to put my arms around her while sleeping, but I like to touch her with my butt, can't figure that one out.

When you find someone that you can spoon with all through the night and sleep soundly, then don't let that go! I'm addicted.

Touching is a very natural normal part of human experience. I've seen studies done that show that people in the more "modernized" countries in the world tend to touch each other a lot less than in the less developed nations. People in the US are particularly stuck in their bubbles. We don't even like to stand close to people when we talk to them. Without touching each other I think we miss out a lot on having real meaningful connections with people. Communication is so much more than the words we say; I find myself wishing a lot of the time that I could put my hand on someone's arm or shoulder when I'm talking to them because it really helps me focus in on them and connect... it rarely if ever happens because people here are just not comfortable with it.

So, to answer your question: Yes, enjoy touching each other, it is absolutely natural, good, and healthy. It is good for the soul.

I love it. My boyfriend and I are like this most of the time. For example, we went camping with my little brother and his friends last night, and practically the whole time we were there, we were hugging, kissing, holding hands, or I was sitting on his lap. It doesn't get old. I love feeling him touch me. And all night while we slept he had his arms around me. It's gotten to the point where sometimes it's hard to fall asleep if he isn't there.

my baby cousin was at my house a couple nights ago, and my mother was saying that when i was a child i was fine as long as someone was holding me, but i always wanted that close physical contact. it's funny because i think it's so true of my personality. i call Xirax after work and tell him to come over and rub me. it's doesn't have to be sexual (although sooner or later it usually is) it's just the touch of his hand anywhere on my body and i'm in heaven.

I spent one hour couped up in my best friend's jeep. My girlfriend was sitting in the back seat and I was in the front. The only part of her anatomy I could reach was her ankle, I had my hand wrapped around her ankle the whole time.

Personally, I wouldn't want to be in a relationship without a lot of non-sexual touching.

when i really like someone i can be like that, it's like i can't believe i'm with them and I need to reassure myself. My family is pretty clingy, I think that's where i got it from.

I´m not really into the touching and being all over each other PDA things. And moskie REALLY isn´t, so we hold hands and stuff but we´re never all over each other like that, it seems tacky to me sometimes.

i'm generally a cuddly person, i think. i like being affectionate towards the person i'm with.

and i love being held and having his arms wrap around me.. especially when we sleep.

My wife and I do this. Not all the time since we are together most of the time, but when we are in the car we are constantly touching. If we are in the same room, I'll walk by and nuzzle her neck and touch her arms and back (these are her feel good spots). It is perfectly normal (even after 13 years of marriage)

Holding hands is so nice.

I think it's impossible to be with a significant other and not want to touch them...even if youre angry, sometimes.

My wife and I touch all the time, going on 15 years now. Even when we're sitting on the couch watching TV, I'll look at her for a moment, remember how I feel about her, and touch her. It just goes like that. When we're out together, we hold hands constantly. And we're never in bed together without spooning or holding each other face to face.

There are folks who don't do this, but I think they're missing out. I am not a hugger or toucher outside my marriage; but inside it, it feels like the most natural thing in the world to touch and touch again, come up behind her and run my hand down her hair, hold hands, make silly noises. Hell, you didn't even _touch_ on silly noises, a whole 'nother world of intimacy.

It's completely normal. Enjoy it.

yes, I'm the same way. I always like to touch onodrim :) Especially in any place that is soft ;)

She hates it though. Always saying something about personal space or something like that. I'm not really sure what though cause I'm too busy touching her :lol: :p

I'm always touching my SO. And if I'm not touching him (which is extremely rare) then he is usually touching me. It amazes me how much one person can influence the way another acts. My SO comes from a non-touching family, but I've had the past 4 years to teach him. It doesn't matter who is driving, if we're ordering food, watching TV, doing nothing in general. If we're in the same room, we're usually attached. It makes up for the times when we're apart. And with me always flying around and multitasking, I love knowing that I can relax and he'll keep me from floating away.

On another note, I usually end up feeding him. I have no idea why I do it. But I do, and he rather likes it. It is just one more way of showing I care.

Okay... now I feel really lonley.


*touches self... feels better*

---after 31 years, the touchy feely thing is still great...:D

My wife and I have been together for almost 25 years now. I can't keep my hands off of her. Sometimes, I'll be walking by her and casually run my hands across her butt or her back. She just feels so good.

An added benefit is the fact we gross the kids out. :thumbsup: :lol:

I'm in one now :)

Well, being single I have to admit I love the attention my hand gives ol Stanley. LOL!!!

On a serious note, I am jealous of all of you who have found that special someone to touch and be touched by. I know, everyone says I will find the one someday, but I ant it NOW!!!! I have been single for a long time, have dated a ton, but want to settle into something like what you all describe. I am a touchy feely person only if is is returned!

Okay now this just made me laugh out loud!

I echo water_boy's sentiments. I envy you who have this bond. I am a very touchy-feely sort of person, and I very much like that in a relationship - holding hands, spooning...bring it on!

*sighs*

What bothers you about this that makes you ask the question?

That is what your SO is for...........touching!!

I normally was never into touching all the time....it kinda grossed me out. But with my new relationship, I literally cannot keep my hands off him, and he's the same way with me. I hope it is like this for a very long time :)

denim, no no, nothing bothers me about it....its just funny or interesting, or odd that Im like that, ive been in other relationships and havent had the need but in this one, oh momma....i just cant stay off her and shes pretty much the same way with me...

Sounds like something to enjoy, then. :)
