holding hands while walking in public

It really helps the relationship to hold hands in public, yes. I cannot believe that you think there is something wrong between lovers to do this. I'm a married woman for 9 years and if I want to hold my husband's hand in public then I will. I do not kiss my husband in public because for me, I do not like to see that. That is for behind closed doors, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with holding hands in public it's not like I just met my husband. I mean we have 2 beautiful kids and we hold their hands. So what is wrong with holding my husband's hand? Man, we are living in the 20th century. God designed us to show love for one another.

holding hands is one of the way how you express your love to your wife/husband or bf/gf. it's ok for me holding hands in public as long as both of you agreed to do that, no problem.

I had a friend who she didn't like to hold hands with her boyfriend because that was way to embarrassing for her since she is shy and I don't see anything wrong with that. Because it's her choice if she wants to do that or not everybody has their choice. I know that I would be also to shy to do that because people do notice and people talk. It always happens people love to talk when they see a couple holding hands is why I would never dare to do that no matter what. In every relationship sometimes things are different like the whole holding hand situation. So yeah this is what I think have a nice day.

I think public display of affection is cute and often at times it may feel uncomfortable for other people to see this. But, to honest I think public display helps the relationship because it shows each other that you don't care what others see, all you care about is being with each other and that's it.

Hi there! For me, holding hands in public is not that big issue.. Maybe they're just showing their affection.. SOmetimes that act doesn't only mean showing ones affection, it's also a means of mens' way of protecting his girl. Common to girls being mistreated by some guys, but once others saw your girl holding a guys' hand, they will never attempt to interfere your girl.. =) I can't really explain the exact point that I'm trying to say LOL! Hope you understand..

when i had a girlfriend, i tended to not hold her hand when we were out.....especially if we were outside! we lived/live in southern california and its pretty gross when you have sweaty hands after a while. i would hold her hand to not lose her in a large crowd though or trying to get between two obese people in a grocery store :)

my hubby and i have been married for over 23 years and we still hold hands. i think its sweet when older couples hold hands (ones that have been married 50+ years).

I think it is an acceptable sign of our affection to ourselves and to others to hold hands in public. i don't think it is anything for anyone to be ashamed of. This kind of affection should be encouraged because it shows how much we care for someone and are not afraid to show it.

Well I guess, things like these really depend on the person or the couple. If you have been raised in a conservative family versus a liberated one, then holding hands would be quite a problem for you. You would surely feel uncomfortable and that's okay,. As for me, seeing couples holding hands in public is pretty okay with me. It's the smooching and too much cuddling that really bothers me when they're in public. I'm still pretty traditional in some sense but partly liberated when I don't see anything wrong with what a couple might be doing like holding hands. As in my case, I would really love it if my boyfriend would hold my hand while we're walking but unfortunately, he doesn't do it.

hello, Ahmm, for me its alright? because it is natural to those in relationship, This is only one way of showing love to each others. Well, I am not agree to you obviously because my boyfriend and I used to do it in the public I dont know why i just dont care to other people. ha ha as long as I am with him.

I think it looks nice when couples walk around holding hands. But I don't know if it helps the relationship or not. But yeah I don't have problems with couples holdng hands in public places.

hi rhden! sometimes me and my boyfriend are walking we our not holding hands while walking maybe because we are not legal with my parents but sometimes if we are sweet we are doing it , it is not that what we call a public display but this is one way of showing a sweetness or that they really love one another.

Well I usually doing this with my gf, even if I didnt started it first, but she hold my hand first, and I am not to brave to refuse it so why not? lol Well, there are many different opinion about this, depending on the country we live in, some are taking it casually, some are taking it very taboo to be seen.

Well It just a way of showing to her that you are proud of her and you care about her. I'm Doing that, and there is no harm in doing that, I don't think that is a worst thing to do? there is no wrong in showing your affection in public. It is a decent things that a partner doing in public, unless they are kissing each other while walking. LOL :))

there are people who just are not comfortable expressing their feelings but I'm not like you though I respect how you feel but I love to hold my man's hand while walking and at times I even hug him, I don't think there's anything wrong with it it's not as if were making out on public
