The Benefits of Holding Hands

I love seeing people that have been dating for awhile still holding hands. It seems to be something that goes away after dating for months or years and it absolutely shouldn’t. Holding hands can be quite beneficial to a relationship.

The simple act of holding hands allows the two people that are dating to share physical intimacy in some small way. Many people aren’t’ fans of kissing in public and most people won’t be on top of each other out of respect for those around them. The small act of holding hands can give you many different feelings- a jolt of happiness, comfort when you are feeling down and even the occasional feeling of arousal.

You feel closer when you hold hands. It’s sort of like putting a puzzle together. Consider your hands puzzle pieces. When you hold hands, it’s a small reminder that you two fit together perfectly and still do after all the time of dating. Slightly corny, but true.

Who knew that holding hands with your significant other could hold so many benefits?
