Are you and your DH, DW or SO affectionate to each other?

[Beauty]

I'm asking because John-Cole just said that we were...in his words..."TOO OLD" to be holding hands, hugging or kissing. HELLO!! I'm quite proud that my DH still holds my hand at the mall and kisses me every now and then. Now this isn't teenage pawing on each other just a quick kiss on the head or the lips and holding hands. And at home if we walk by each other we usually touch each other in some form or lay together on the couch. Just normal things like that...nothing over the top.

So now I'm told that at the SUPER OLD AGE of 31 I am no longer allowed to kiss, hug or touch my husband....so everyone out there older than 31 hands off...your to old to love anyone

we are. been togther for 3 years. if we are near each other we are touching each other in some way. my friend laughs at me because i still have a crush on kevin after so long. i love that i get butterflies when he comes home. and that we still go on "dates". and that he calls me at least 3 times a day from work. and i love that he cant walk past me without a pat, squeeze, or kiss.

 

[SonjaB]

Yes, we are, I'm VERY happy to report.

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

YES!

 

[Pooh Girl 71]

YES! I'm also 31 and was informed by DD that DH and I are just "yucky" b/c we are affectionate

 

[CamColt]

This post has me ROFL! I was just discussing with DH how he is the least romantic guy I know. So, to answer your question, NO!

After 22 years of marriage I can report YES WE ARE!! Our kids tease us if they catch us kissing... which is often.. we are huggers, hand holders, kissers.. It is a good thing!

 

[Dizzy-Disney4]

Well since I'm a hugger and like to hold hands and snuggle, the answer would be yes. But, I'm that way with my kids too. I think its important to show my kids affection that way and to see it in their parents. I grew up in a family where no one touched or said I love you (although it was understood), I don't want that for my kiddos. So yes, DH & I are affectionate...even when the kids say,"EWW Gross".

 

[poohbear7]

Yes

After 34 years of marriage we still hold hands , kiss and hug
We feel like newlyweds, our children are grown and married andoften tease us..

 

[grinningghost]

After 15 years together, I'm happy to say that yes we are.

Tony you can't be MUCH older than me...I've seen your pic in your siggie!

I'm affectionate towards John-Cole too but I guess that doesn't count since I'm his mom.

You know looking back to when I was growing up my parents were affectionate but not very.....but my best friends parents were super affectionate. I can remember telling her that one day I hope to have a husband and be just like her mom and dad. They to this day are the sweetest couple I know and they are in their late 50s.

I don't know I just never get tired of touching John (and no I don't mean THAT way although thats wonderful too) but just touching his hand or his back or having him grab my hand.

I just got through watching Kate and Leopold so I guess I'm being overly romantic as usual!!

We're all affectionate here in this house. DH wasn't as much when I first met him, but I changed that real quick. I grew up with very affectionate parents - he never even saw his parents kiss! So it took a while for him to get used to our ways, but I'm happy to say that after 16 years of marriage, he is very affectionate with both me and the boys.

 

[browneyes]

My SO has never kissed me in public (his family wonders how we've ever had kids-they've never seen us kiss in the almost 14 years we've been together ). He rarely holds my hand. I'm the affectionate type, but he's not.

 

[Serena]

I am the affectionate type, my h was not. My girls are though.

 

[Jenzebelle]

I've learned to be affectionate, because DH is very touchy feely.

 

[SeaSpray]

We're generally very affectionate. My DH and I sleep entangled together every night, and when we sit together on the couch, we usually put our legs over each others. I find it very comforting and gives me a secure feeling to have contact with DH when we're sitting near each other, and in bed at night.

I have 2 DSs and I kiss them "goodnight" every single night, and tell them I love them a few times a day, as well as hugs.

To this day, my sister, brothers, and I all kiss my father and mother when we enter their house, and kiss them "goodbye" too. My parents really weren't overly affectionate towards each other but they were affectionate with us kids

 

[disykat]

DH and I go in phases.

My boys, ages 7 and 10, don't want me to kiss them (I insist they let me kiss their forehead at bed time). The only time they willingly let me hug them is to make the dog jealous!

 

[DStar4cup]

Yes after 20yrs we still are. My DD's are always making faces at us. I tell them to leave us alone if we didn't love each other they wouldn't be here!!!
