some people just have an aversion to touch. i suppose it's possible to have never shaken someone's hand.
No, I never do the knuckle-to-knuckle gesture. No reason really, I've just never done it before. I'm a hugger. I hug people I just met if I feel a connection. It catches people off guard sometimes but I've never been pushed away and my hugs are always returned with a smile. I feel that sometimes a hug can really make someone feel good, brighten their day. At least, I know it does for me. Lame probably, but oh well.
I always thought the knuckle to knuckle thing was only done by kids who didn't want their friends to know they had sweaty palms..... nowt wroing with a good ol' fashioned handshake imo.....
not lame at all. nothing wrong with hugs. when i hang out with my female friends, its a hug when we meet up and a hug before we leave.
I've only ever seen that in the movies. Same with the palm tickling thing. Haha, that sounded funny. I usually greet my friends with a kiss on the cheek or a hug.
