Yes. I love intimacy. I am spoiled. When she walks in and the room lights up. I get those butterflies in my stomach. She is so precious and beautiful.
Yup, together for 2 years now and he still holds my hand wherever we go. And when he comes home I smother him with kisses. It is a nice way to be and stay intimate.
I do like both of these however I don't hold hands during the summer because my hands sweat a lot and I feel uncomfortable holding someone else's hand when my hands are sweaty. Can't wait for fall.
I never used to be a person who shared a lot of public affection..now that I am older..holding hands and kisses..just seems to 'feel right'..I love when an older couple have public displays of intimacy..kisses. holding hands, arm around shoulders or waist..stroking hair..I want to show people I am happy. and that my partner is too..Sometimes if I kiss my wife in a family function, there will be a call like "GET A ROOM!"...which always elicits smiles and laughter..and makes us both laugh.
I love seeing an older couple hold hands during a walk too. Not often seen but it's nice when it happens. A cool video for you all. http://www.buzzfeed.com/abagg/this-video-of-people-kissing-for-the-first-time-goes-from-aw
It is intimate. It's something that you would probably expect most couples to engage in, though of course, not all do and that's their choice which is fine. As for my girlfriend & I, we hold hands and kiss and all. It's fun.
One Thing I Have Noticed Lately Is The Increasing Number Of Teenagers Holding Hands As They Walk The Street...:love: Tis Nice To See... Cheers Glen.
Great post. For me...touching is super important. I don't like anyone touching me besides my wife and kids and maybe the occasional friend hugging me or business hand shake. I seriously have an issue with that. It's something related to some other issues I have. I've never expected to tell anyone this but touch is something to me. I love laying with my wife and just running my hands over her body. It's not really orgasmic but it's kind of intense in a different way. I can't really describe it. I don't like most people touching me at all but her just putting her hand on my cheek while we're sleeping is the most comforting thing in the world to me. Just to feel us touch each other every night is sometimes better than sex.
I've been with my husband for 18 years and we still hold hands and kiss all the time. Not like making out in public but we like to show affection. We went to a ballgame tonight and he had his arm around me and was rubbing my back. That is normal for us. I'm not big on cuddling when I'm trying to sleep but feeling him next to me makes me feel happy and safe. We always look at each other and wink or smile. I love touching his beard and he plays with my hair. I like being close to him.
What's really cool, is it's intimate without having to be sexual. It certainly can go that way, but it's like an all the time connection, or a reconnection after separation. So, too is a pressing of a knee. Almost like a whispering promise of more, later.
I'm another one who's into kissing and holding hand. And saying "I love you". I tell my husband several times a day that I love him. I text him the important message. I leave pieces of paper with it on the table. And compliments. I'm forever complimenting him on all sorts of things. I don't ever want to regret having lost a moment to love him. We've been together for 20 years.
