Replies Craziie Posted at 12:44 pm on July 5, 2009 Man up and show your girlfriend off ! show them you love her. randomray Posted at 12:43 pm on July 5, 2009 you need to try and realise that no one will look at you differently because you are holding hands with your gf. if you don't then she is going to feel a little pushed to the side like you don't really care. holding hands isn't coupley, making out all the time is. you shouldn't feel uncomfortable with it and if you do hold her hand with your friends around I'm sure it will make her happy as you don't usually ... RIMHfire Posted at 12:41 pm on July 5, 2009 Try and break that habit of yours. And show your friends you finally have a girlfriend. clockworkorange71 Posted at 12:40 pm on July 5, 2009 Yeah, it's normal.  I always felt weird even being near my ex (wasn't at the time) when I was with my friends.. or with his friends.. DaisyMontana Posted at 12:39 pm on July 5, 2009 No, it's not. You need to show ur friends that you really love her. All 5 previous replies displayed.
