Holding hands generally shows affection and a gesture of welcoming someone into your personal space. Some people find the act of holding hands more intimate than anything else. When a guy holds your hand on the first date, it signifies his comfort with physical touch.

What does it mean when a guy initiates holding hands?

If a man initiates hand-holding, you can bet hes looking for more of a physical connection. If hes holding your hand with both of his, it means hes giving you his full attention.

Does holding hands mean I like you?

“Holding hands invokes a positive feeling about one another, so you both feel sexy and wanted. Its almost like foreplay. Cue all the feels: Just like massage, kissing, and hugging, “research shows that touch, like holding hands, releases oxytocin, a neurotransmitter that gives you that feel-good buzz,” says Coleman.
