Welcome to our Expert Advice column, where we gathered a team of Human Experts to give you the very best advice for all of your human problems. This month’s advice is on the subject of hand-holding on dates. If you follow these pieces of advice to the letter, you’ll be sure to score a second date!**
- Once you have their hand in your possession, make sure you never let go. Ever. Bring them with you everywhere. To get snacks, to go to the bathroom…everywhere.
- Hold pinkies, like an extended pinky promise. Just your pinkies.
- Don’t be afraid to initiate a thumb-wrestling challenge every once in awhile. It can really spice up your hand-holding love life! It’s also a great way to determine whose hand gets to be “on top.”
- Remember, if your hands get sweaty, wipe them off on the other person’s shirt.
- Never, EVER let your hands get dry. It’s a good idea to lick your palms regularly to keep them enticingly moist and clammy.
- Squeeze their hand as tightly as you can to establish dominance in the relationship. If you can’t hear cracking bones, you’re not loving hard enough.
- Spread the love by sneezing in your hand before holding someone else’s. That way they’ll always have a part of you with them.
- Sharpen your fingernails so that you pierce into the skin of your beloved and you’ll be connected to them forever.
- Use your index finger to casually scratch the inside of their palm. You never know when they might have an itchy hand!
- The only acceptable way to end a hand-holding session is to vigorously spin your lover onto the ground.
**Disclaimer: We void all responsibility if these tips do not, in fact, grant you another date.

It's safe to say at any point that I'd rather be reading, writing, exploring, or wandering around the globe.

Harry Potter nerd, first and foremost. Aspiring author and poet, emphasis on aspiring as she sometimes (read:often) forgets to work on her novels. In her defense, there's like, at least three of them. Maybe four.

English major, who can't write a book to save her life. Closet Hiddlestoner and definitely a nerd from the bottom of my toes. I'm into video games, reading, and finding a great place to nap.
