Do you still hold hands with your other half?

[AmberGer]

Just been sat in the car, watching couples coming in and out of school (parents evening) and noticed how few parents hold hands while they're walking together.
I've been with DH over two decades but we still do.
Just a casual observation. I'm not doing a survey or anything

I don’t think we’ve ever done that tbh.

Yes usually as we're falling asleep

Yes but we hardly ever kiss so it's not as romantic as you'd think...

Absolutely - together over 20 yrs. my parents do too (45 yrs together) but my PIL don’t and have been together for the same amount of time too.

Yes usually as we're falling asleep

This is us too. 😍. We do hold hands outside but not often. Bern together 12 years.

We do. Plus kiss in public!

We do. Married 37 years.

Sometimes but now there's usually DD between us asking to be swung

We're in our 60s, been married almost 42 years. Still hold hands.

Yes, married 32 years.

I'd love to but it's too much hassle, same sex couple and we get stared at. The longer we are together, the more I'd love that simple pleasure.

Don't think I've ever held hands with my dh (together since 1991) - I find it quite cringe, tbh. In anyone.

Yes, together 20 years and we always hold hands when walking.

Yes, we do

We hold hands on long walks,day trips out , evenings out but wouldn't really want to be seen holding hands at parents evening or somewhere else at a formal thing to do with the children. When I see established couples always, always holding hands or arms around each other I wonder what that is about , ownership? But sadly I am a cynic.

Never have. I'm really not much of a toucher 😁

We are late twenties, nope lol

We've been together 10+ years

Yes, just about always when we are out. Married 42 years.

My parents were married for 68 years when they died and they held hands while out and while sitting watching tv. I thought it was lovely

Yes, all the time.

Occasionally, if on holiday or on a relaxing walk or something. We would never hold hands coming out of parents evening (or any other mundane activity), that just seems ridiculous to me. Been married 10 years.

Married 17 years and mostly hold hands when out and about walking. Not in supermarkets though.

I never have, it's irritating to other people if you are out and doing this as it takes up a lot of pavement

Nope! The height difference between us makes it all awkward and uncomfortable

Yes, most of the time when we’re at home, I’m essentially a limpet.
