How important is handholding during sex and eye conact?

[sarahloves]

I use to like it when one of my ex boyfriends would hold my hand during penetration and look deeply in my eyes. Also while either one of us was giving oral sex to one another we would often gaze and give eye contact to one another while holding at least one of his hands while blowing him and giving him eye contact and it made it feel so much deeper and more connected...can anyone else relate and has done this?

Holding hands not so much but eye contact with someone your in love with while making love is something I enjoyed as well. With oral that never happend because when I would riecive they usually had their eyes foreward or closed and when I would give the girl always has her head back so I can't really see her eyes. I also really liked positions that made us feel really close to one another ie. lots of body to body contact. This also made a feeling of togetherness and was good for positions that wouldn't allow for eye contact.

Absolutely!

I think is so much better when there is a deep connection, and eye contact is perhaps the most intimate of things. I love to look into her eyes when making love. Sometimes I have to ask, so she will keep looking at me. There is nothing more personal than looking deeply into a woman's eyes while making love. Amazing sex.

I love looking into his eyes, that brief moment where we look into each others' eyes and know that we're thinking happy thoughts. I'll look into his eyes and I'll remind myself of how much better he's made my life.

doesn't the sweat and heat get in the way of that "aw" moment? guess not. lol. I'm sorry I can't do that. I can't look them in the eyes either because I laugh and it's weird. lol. but glad to see you enjoy it. =P
