For many, finding the right someone to build a romantic relationship with can take a lifetime, while for others, it can take only a moment to lock eyes with their soulmates and know they’ve found “the one.”
The bond we share with our romantic partners is special and unique between only two people in the world. And the way a couple expresses their feelings for each other says a lot about the dynamics of the relationship and the distinct personalities that form it.
We all know how body language can say volumes about a person without saying a word. The same holds for displays of affection such as holding hands. Below, we’ll take a look at some of the different ways people have hands and what they say about a relationship.
Holding hands in this fashion means having a relationship based more on affection than passion.
This is one of the more common ways people hold hands, and it says a lot about the power dynamic in the relationship. It’s believed that the person whose hand ends up on top (palm facing down) is typically the dominant personality in the relationship.
Interlacing fingers is a sign of intimacy. This form of hand-holding shows that both people are in a very intimate relationship that can be very passionate physically and emotionally, and intellectually deep.
It also speaks to how comfortable they feel with each other and suggests a level of attachment or mutual need for each other.
If your partner leads you by holding one or more fingers, this could indicate a few interesting things about your relationship.
This may suggest you are both free spirits who have separate interests and passions outside of your relationship.
Most likely, you are the kind of couple who can enjoy private alone time while striving to maintain a sense of your individuality. But, when it’s all said and done, you still share a power connection.
Using the reinforcement handhold typically means that your relationship’s beginning to heat up. Unfortunately, it can also be a negative sign that indicates one person’s becoming extremely possessive.
This form of hand-holding is fairly common, although many consider it a bit old-fashioned. We often see this form with celebrity couples whenever they attend public events. The wife, girlfriend, or fiancee often holds their male partner’s arm this way. Couples who use this technique may seek a sense of security from their partners.
This could show that a couple is not on the same page or in the same place in their relationship. Whoever pulls is usually trying to pressure their partner to make decisions faster than they are comfortable doing. It can also be a sign that one person is growing bored or tired in the relationship.
A partner who does not like to hold hands or avoids holding hands might be revealing that they are not really into you. However, this can also indicate a desire for privacy and shyness. Don’t rush to judgment, and keep watching for other signs. Often, this isn’t much to worry about.
