Why do women touch you when talking?

Why do women/girls have to touch you when they talk to you?
Like you're talking to them and they have to touch your arm or your shoulder.

They're trying to establish a connection, I believe.
Not 100% but I learned that's one reason in psych.

Because we are caring. Hahas...
Don't you think that when somone touch you, you will feel warm?
Touches are just like connection.. ^^

It's ok if I know the person, but I feel uncomfortable when it's a stranger.

I do not see anything bad if girls or women touch you when they talk, to me it's pretty cool!

Hi, I think they do that because they like you. It has been noted scientifically that when people touch each other they like each other or are trying to make you like them and notice them more. If you dont want them to touch you just be kind and say, my I noitced you like to touch me. Do you like my shirt? Please ask before touching. If you liked them touching you then just smile and continue in the conversation.

cus we like you.
DUH
:]

if a girl is talking to you and she touches your arm or shoulder or whatever, that is a MAJOR sign. she's telling you she likes you! she is interested! she's asking you to make a move!

She probably likes you.

But whenever I'm saying something serious to a boy I like, I get way too freaked out to touch him, or even give eye contact.

Maybe she likes you...

Although Im sensing this is a general question?
Men tend to claim more personal space (distance between you and another person) than women do, so they dont necessarily see touch as an invasion of privacy...
Also touching someone can display affection, like, comfort, trust, and women like to make the people they're talking to feel comfortable... They may not even realize they're doing it and they certainly dont realize it's having the opposite effect.
The best way to deal with this is to play it off, if they touch you ask them something like, "do I have lint on my shirt", usually this will bring their behavior to their awareness if they do it again, just go "there must be a lot of lint on my shirt" or "there you go touching me again"

this guy on the Bill Maher (sp?) show didnt like the host touching him. So jokingly he brought it up, and kept reminding him to stop it...

some people are just touchy feely, if you bring it up jokingly they'll stop...

Its just a connection thats all.
I used to get weirded out by that lol now I don't really care. The only person I touch when I'm talking to them is my boyfriend.

who is it that touched you??? and yah..we do touch you because we obviously want a conection!! DUH!!!

he he!! het me know if it happens again!!

I touch guys when I talk to them because I like them.
and its kinda flirty... lol

mabey because there trying to get you attention if you get distracted or trying to get the message across

because maybe she wants a connection and says
to make the first move or somthing lol idunno
good luck

it mean they like you but it could be as a friend or more

its a way of flirting

you know what I am a girl so I dont know so all I can say is dont let them touch you.

Enjoy it odal it means that someone is trying to connect to you through touch. Some women feel closer to someone if they touch them while talking to them. I used to sit and wonder about this too and I tried it myself on someone the other day and I feel it does have a diferent meaning for eveyone. Because this person and I are just great friends.

Pixalotal, trizzella are the only two who have this right.

Funadvice, you have probably noticed that although girls have touched you, they shoot you down as soon as you ask them on a date; you're way off on this one.

Beautysblush, where’s this “scientific" notation you mentioned; show me the data, in other words, back up your claim. That’s BS. There is nothing "scientific" to support this.

I am a tactile person. I might touch your arm to get your attention when there is a lot of people around or if I want to make a point that I don’t want to be forgotten two seconds after I walk away. Many people touch someone’s arm for emphasis. “Don’t forget to email me those meeting notes” isn’t a flirt, but with a touch, it is more likely to be remembered. Or “You’re doing a great job and I appreciate your hard work,” isn’t a flirt at all, but with a touch it's a gesture of appreciation with emphasis. Some of you really need to pick up a book once in a while….

I think she likes u

I believe that women have motherly instinct and thats just a thing they do, just like some would risk their life for yours just because it is an istinct to do that even without thinking. However, it is a a girl then she might like you...
