Hey, how about we all start admitting that handshakes are creepy, forced physical contact and a gross imposition.
No, I'm not a germaphobe! It's just weird, bruh! ๐คจ

@Yuriel yup. esp. as they are frequently used as a power play. overhand. too tight. too long.
hugs even worse. please get out of my personal space. i don't know you.
@pavsmith Thankfully, I'm dry and cold enough towards annoying extroverts that they never get the urge to get that close. ๐
But yeah, hard agree.
@Yuriel fist bump or finger guns are my go to for people I know. Everyone else gets a nod.
If they attempt a handshake anyway they get a perplexed look and an awkward low-five.
I have found that around boomers standing with hands in pocket or behind my back prevents most attempts at handshaking.
@Yuriel God, I fucking hate them.
There's always the thing that you should have a good firm handshake but then you get the assholes who look at it as some kind of contest and try to crush your hand in a pathetic act of social dominance.
