It so strange that even hard to believe it happens (except between colleagues-friends etc).

I was at a poker game with my dad once and he bumped another guy (probably 22) after a hand. Thought that was the strangest thing.

I did not say I would refuse a deal because of that. I said that I would think "what is this joker doing". And then your business deal would prove me wrong afterwards, but my first impression would be bad, I would be less likely to initiate business talks with said person.

I understand it when you do it with business partners you know very well, when your partnership has some degree of "friendship".

Loud nightclub is another story, it is kind of "after party" and not an actual business setting, so it is not that bad.

I can't stand the guys that close their hand too quick and grab my fingers. Happens a lot too.

I also constantly get tripped up with the upwards hand bro-hug shake... Never properly anticipate that shit and always make it awkward.

Has anyone ever had to deal with someone who tries to make a pissing match out of a handshake by not letting go at the appropriate moment. I wanted to use my free hand to smash his face, but my left sucks.

After last year no handshakes, that flu was dreadful.

But to answer your question, yes a limp handshake (especially a sweaty limpy) is usually a good indicator of a persons manliness... and other traits.

I do the namaste bow with my hands together. Nobody ever shakes me hand when I do that. Shaking hands is the dumbest thing ever. The last thing I want to do is touch your fucking gross hand. Besides, I often pick my nose and ass so why would you want to shake mine?

Mine's limp as it's tired from counting stacks of adult income :winkwink:

Looking someone in the eye with a smile or a serious face (depending on the situation) and a firm handshake has always been my approach with men. With women, I almost always kiss them on the cheek.

Alternatively, nothing annoys me more than the guy who thinks "firm handshake" means "crush bones." The perfect handshake is something like this; palms touch, grip feels intentional and enthusiastic, two pumps, and done.

But actually I like the idea of fist bumps better all around. We should just make that the official international greeting. Enough with the face-kisses, handshakes, and head nods.

I am switching to a new form of greeting, starting at Internext.

Germ-proof, manly, effective.

One thing I can tell you is though. You will never meet a scam artist who doesn't shake your hand firmly and look you in the eye first.

This.. I've always looked at dudes whom over due the handshake routine in the same way as those butch lesbians whom over do the male act routine. In short I tend to think people whom try to over due the male alpha thing as trying to overcompensate for something else they are lacking.

The idea is to show that you don't have any weapon in your hand, not to break someone's hand. What I should mean with hand shaking?

PS. I shake hands "normally" AKA not trying to challenge the other into some Alpha male contest.

^^^this - i am german, i'm not used to things like this - so it is sometimes awkward for me when i either try to shake the fist of the other person or think i am done with the handshake and the other person continues with whatever the ritual consists of

i learned to give a firm handshake and look the other person in the eyes

For those who don't have a significant grip, or can't compete with someone who wants to crush your hand when shaking.

When grabbing their hand, extended your pointer finger at them, like you are pointing. They'll squeeze their little hearts off trying to make you squirm, while you smile at their Pseudo Alpha shit not working.

LAJ	12-18-2014 09:41 AM

Well I'm a touchy feely kinda guy... chances are likely I'm going to give you a bro hug if you are a dude I get along with and respect, and a quick peck on the cheek if you are a female friend. Both if you are a really close male friend of mine.

Hate limp handshakes but on the other side. The CEO of ibill shook my hand firmly , looked me straight in the eye and told me Son you are with a winner and then fucked me up the ass for 13k lol. So there is no set rule.

RTP	12-18-2014 11:20 AM

I won't shake someones hand in these circumstances (always happens at a show)

Buffet line.

Walking out of a restroom, and no "don't worry it's just water" does not make it okay drippy.

This guy has a pronounced handshake and will look you in the eyes and smile when you greet.

I agree.

Personally, i'm a firm hand shake type of guy, but I don't judge on others hand shake styles.

Like I said before; Some of the wealthiest people, CEOs, people that are in charge of authorizing my wires, have had some of the softest hand shakes. I would be an idiot to judge these people on their hand shake alone.

That has been my experiences with hand shakes. No judgment from me. :thumbsup
