    How important is a firm handshake?

    Yeah,,,hot dogs french fries and coffee ice cream,,,with strawberry syrup......
    Skink Reviewed by Skink on . How important is a firm handshake? When I was 5 years old, eye contact was the first thing my dad taught me along with a firm handshake. "you look a man in the eye, whether he is bigger or smaller than you. Stick out your hand into their space before they do. When you grab each others hand, make sure you are the one with the dominant hold. Look him in the eye and introduce yourself loud and clear." I can't remember how many times people complimented my dad and I when I was young. Noone expects a five year old to shake your Rating: 5

    Call me crazy, but I always kind of look twice at the people that give me a regular ole' handshake. It just doesn't look natural, or it looks funny, I'm not sure. ~
    Exactly what I was thinking. Job interview, meeting your girlfriend/boyfriend's parents, and being introduced at family parties are the few times where I feel comfortable with a firm handshake.

    If I see some kid at a party I knew from grade school.. I say "oh hey whatup man" and do the.. the.. I don't even know what to call it. For lack of a better term, I guess I'll call it the negro clasp.

    Negro clasps are always fun.

    I've allways been taught that a firm hand shake is very important. I hate when some one shakes your hand and its limp. A handshake truly tells a lot about that person. My Dad hated my sisters x-husband the moment they first shook hands, the guy hand a limp fish handshake.

    The funniest thing is when you see a huge guy, then you goto shake his hand and its like shaking hands with a little boy...its sad really lol

    LOL...I didn't realize so many of you put that much into shaking hands.

    I usually wait to at LEAST talk to them first ya know...

    And yeah, if a person tries too hard and squeezes my hand like I'm some child, THAT would make me think less of them.

    But then again, Hank Hill hates a weak handshake, so maybe I'm in the wrong here. :jointsmile:

    I'd have to agree with a lot of people here and say 10. My father stressed the handshake quite a bit.

    How important is a firm handshake?

    It's always good to have a fight and end it with a pint of larger and a joint in the car on the way home.
    yeh i heard that

    Which is why i dont understand people who go out pickin fights for no reason, havin a little punch-up with someone you know is fine, just as long as its friendly rivalry, when i have to fight people i dont know its different, usually if i am in that position i have the mentality to fight for real, then afterwards i look back and think 'why didnt i just walk away'.. i have two sides, one side of me wants to be an ideot, and wont let me walk away from a fight, and the other side of me is just a normal kid tryin to change...

    its hard to know what im really thinkin, my brain will be tellin me to do somethin, but i wont be sure if thats what i REALLY want to do... maybe im crazy... mwahahaha...
