Handshake and kiss/hug?

Postby Booney » Tue Sep 12, 2017 3:16 pm

When you meet up with some mates and/or if they have other halves do you :

Shake hands with your mate?

Shake hands with the other half?

Give the other half a peck on the cheek and a half hug?

None of the above?

Discuss.

Dicsuss.

Don't give it a handshake or a kiss then. ;)

I think handshakes are mandatory for blokes.

A guy who doesn't shake your hand, or gives a weak shake, can't be trusted.

In terms of wives/partners, read their body language and let that be your guide. In my opinion, a peck on the cheek is sufficient, but if your mate (or your missus) is touchy about that sort of thing, a handshake should be enough.

Hand shake for blokes. (absolutely no fancy/gangsta shit)

Close female friends get a hug with a squeeze at the end.

New female friends or ones I dont actually like get an awkward wave until they initiate the first hug.

No one gets a kiss.

Handshake for the blokes and a peck on the cheek and a hug for the women.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Handshake for blokes, and either light kiss and hug for a few close female friends but not many.

None of this fingers up above palm crap, American crap.

Also, a no-no to blokes hugging each other like on telly when they meet or for trivial things or after a run-of-the-mill sport win or where they're not really close mates. Okay for a special occasion, wedding, funeral, GF, etc

Agree in the main with FC about a weak handshake but needs to be read with their overall body language. I have a mate who isn't a jock or too knockabout with a very soft handshake, but I would fully trust him.

Sort of a touch on the arm half hug sort of thing for the woman, depends on who it is, I probably was a bit too friendly in the past without realizing it.

There are always exceptions to the rule, I think. You're mate seems like one of them.
