How to touch a guy on a date
Now that you know the basic rules about where and how to touch a guy on a date in public, let’s talk about some common guidelines for touch in general.
1. Touch his arms and shoulders
When you touch his arms and shoulders, you are telling him “I’m trying to decide whether or not I like you.” You could even let it linger a little bit longer than most people would.
It is a way of telling him that you are interested in seeing where this goes between the two of you. So, soft touches in these places will give him the hint that you want to continue.
2. Lightly brush his hand
Touching his arms or shoulders is less personal than lightly brushing his hands. When you involve his hands, you are sending a stronger message of interest.
If you’re sitting across from him, or next to him, on a date, it’s totally fine to extend your hand and place it over his while making a point about something.
For example, you could place your hand over his and say something like “I’m really glad we decided to meet up today…” It seems genuine, and is an easy way to touch a guy without appearing like you’re overeager.
You are basically saying to him “I’m not trying to decide if I like you anymore. I already know that I do, and I want you to grab my hand!” [Read: How to get a guy to hold your hand without making the first move]

This works best if you’re sitting next to him or giving him a hug so the whole touch seems effortless. When you pair this with looking deep into his eyes, this is a very strong gesture of interest.
Look at how he reacts. If he’s responding well, then you are opening up to the possibility of deepening the relationship. In fact, it’s not uncommon for men to do this to you when he is thinking about kissing you.
4. Touch his ear or earlobe
This is a very sexy way to give attention to the guy. You could even whisper something into his ear so he can feel your breath.
