Posted: 6/23/2008 1:28:59 PM | | OP, if you both attracted to each other just reachin hands even a short while made you feel euphoric. It was a crazy idea of both me and my date to reach each other hand as we sat in opposite direction.After the coffe date he asked me for a hug and i hugged him back he said he liked the way i hugged him because it was tight ,so from the start of hand reachin to a tight hug as our first meeting ended ..he said...we got connected. | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 1:44:21 PM | No don't like to touch on a first date... not what I like. Maybe a hug...
I am not big on PDA. I don't mind holding hands but that would be about it, but not on a first date/meet.

Posted: 6/23/2008 1:49:46 PM | | On a first date I hold hands, maybe lightly touch her back if we are going through a doorway and she's passing in front of me, and kiss and hug briefly at the end of the night if all goes well. | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 3:11:00 PM | I would have to say some type of physical contact must be made!
How can you feel the spark if there is no touch?! Even if it's just laying your hand on the small of her back when walking through a door! | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 3:26:23 PM | | If I like him and he likes me, yes, I would like for there to be a touch for a mutual confirmation. | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 3:41:58 PM | It is true,
The entire world, from children to the elderly all could benefit from human touch.
read: not grope, not manhandle, simple human touch.
On a first date, it is always wise to be prudent about this, that is, unless the connection is immediate , strong and mutual, and you can't help but to touch and hug one another.
that doesn't happen every day
That is quite rare

Posted: 6/23/2008 3:42:57 PM | I think it depends on how the date is gowing!
Some people just open up,other's are a little more reserved.
It's that chemistry thing! | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 3:45:41 PM | A real man touches whenever he feels the time is right; he doesn't wait for permission.
And women absolutely love to be touched by real men. | |

| Do you touch on the first date? I read all the posts and I still don't know!
Posted: 6/23/2008 3:48:24 PM | I saw this topic, and read all the posts because this is something I've wondered about, too. I love touch, if it's someone I'm interested in. But I'm never sure if I should initiate it, or how to.
Now that I've read how it's almost a requirement for some ladies, and a turn-off for others - What's a fella to do? | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 4:14:23 PM | ^^^^^ you've just gotta learn to read the signals.
true example 1:
meet guy for coffee. i get mine, and sit at the counter, on a bar stool. he arrives and joins me. i see him, and i just know i'm not attracted to him .(that was the beginning of "must provide a photo". "good looking" - not!) so, we're talking and he touches my thigh. i scooch the stool an inch away. touches again, scooch again. and again, and again. now, i'm like six inches further away, he scooches his stool closer.
get it? she's distancing, hiding hands, etc. she doesn't want to be touched.
true example 2:
meet guy at bar. he's there first. looks like pic. walk up, say hi. do the cheek kiss. yep, it was there. had drinks, decided to eat, held hands across the table. took a walk, holding hands. stopped in a park with a splashing fountain, kissed.
now, this is only me, and i'd say i like to be touched - but only if i want to be touched. i am never offended by a handshake, appropriate touch (nudge, nudge - - look at that!), cheek kiss, etc. my response should tell you all you need to know. and, if i initiate the touch, which i am likely to do with a date, it's because i want to see if there's a spark. if i do it repeatedly, well, that should also tell you something.
did that help at all? | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 4:22:32 PM | ^^^ What she said. And if you're not sure, ask--and pay attention to the body language that accompanies a "yes," because some folks just aren't comfortable saying no even if they want to.
A good bet is that if a woman touches you beyond a handshake, she will be okay with being touched in return. But watch the way she responds; if she doesn't look happy about it, stop touching.

Yo, John Wayne
That is your theory?
consider this one though...a real man touches when her eyes look so open, yours are so inviting as well, when you approach one another without hesitation, when she nestles into your arms with ease and it feels like a perfect fit, like she's always lived there, when mere words are not even powerful enough to describe the feeling. Even then, a real man may still ask permission.

Posted: 6/23/2008 4:36:23 PM | | I was always taught that manners are important. When you meet someone for the first time you should at least shake their hand. If the meeting is going good and there is an essence of positive why not open your mouth and ask if you can hold thier hand or touch their arm or even kiss them. It is called communications..you can do it sometimes without saying a word too.. | |

I find when i am on a date that I like to make contact with the other person by touching their hand after talking a while if I feel comfortable. There is something in a touch that can almost send a signal if you like the person or not. Have you found that to be true?
Yes...and I get creeped out if I'm putting out signals that don't indicate I'm interested and the guy still tries...it's not that hard to figure out if someone's interested in you or not is it? | |

Posted: 6/23/2008 5:06:37 PM | and ... when I meet someone I usually shake hands first up or if it seems appropriate, depending on how long i have been speaking with them person I would even give them a quick hug.
Since I am a touchy kind of person if I don't at least touch you once during our conversation you can forget it, I would not be interested in you. I don't touch in a creepy kind of way but it just seems natural to me to touch, eg. a pat on the shoulder or the arm... etc

Posted: 6/24/2008 2:45:24 PM | | I agree touching someone you like and feel comfortable with is a sign to let them know you do like them. Same goes if they touch you. So here is another question. Kinda probably sounds old fashion but does everyone think women should touch first or men? I ask that because ususally if a man touches he is being too forward but if a women touches first she is being sweet. I know its sounds weird. Its not my opinion just how society thinks. | |

Posted: 6/24/2008 2:58:52 PM | | Perfectly true for me. Thanks for sharing. And, of course, for others - if it doesn't feel comfortable - don't do it! | |

Posted: 6/24/2008 4:13:11 PM | | If I have going out and I enjoyed the outing but not sure about chemistry... a hug will tell me wheter I should go out with them again. My rule is if I meet someone and I don't want to touch them then it is a NO. Works for me. | |

Posted: 6/24/2008 5:08:32 PM | Yep - you like him/her - touch - you don't, end the date early, pick up a good movie and popcorn and enjoy yourself at home alone. | |
