Some people talk with their hands. I talk with my hands sometimes, especially when i'm describing something. But I know there are some people that have to use their hands all the time. Are you one who has to talk with your hands???

Yeah I do use them to talk. I didn't notice it before but now I am using them even more. There are times when I don't even know what to do with my hands. Like when I'm walking I need to have a pocket somewhere so I could just stick them in there or I'll hook my fingers into my bookbag. So it's weird because when I'm walking I don't know what to do with my hands but when I am talking they are all over the place.

yeah, because usually when i talk ill mix together either 2 words im going to say one after the other, or 2 possible words for that spot in the sentence. for instance, in the previous sentence i could have said place instead of spot, and when im talking sometimes ill mess up and combine the two possibilities and say something like splace, so it helps a lot when i can use my hands and people can still understand me.

Yes, I talk with my hands most of the time, I don't know why. It seems that it has been a habit lolz.
