Body language in relationships and what insight it can give us of H and Lou’s dynamics in their relationship

Just because I have seen comments of H and O interlocked fingers while holding hands

A thread
Let’s start with this so we can get it out of the way - hands interlocked, they must be very close ...
Yes but it also depends on the context. If you are close your bodies almost touch, possibly you look into each other eyes, not something we can see here. Yes there is a relationship, but it could be just friendship
What if you are just gripping the hand, not interlocking it? Like here
It all depends on context here, true. It could be to provide reassurance and comfort, you know, like when you are not allowed to display PDAs, yet you are holding your boyfriend hand in front of fans
Arm draped around shoulder and hand holding at the same time. Like here
The message is pretty clear, I am into you and I want the world to know
Hand behind the back - we have got many incidences of that, particularly Lou touching H’s lower back. It seems like one of his favourite spots
It can be a power move, but it also shows closeness and protection - and we know Lou can be protective of his baby
Arm over shoulder - they do that with each other a lot, maybe a gesture that can be interpreted as friendly, but what else can it mean?
It is an emotional gesture, you crave for the person to be closer to you. Did it ever happen to you to sometimes grab the shoulder a bit and pull the person closer? I do that often
Leaning into each other - yes, they have often done it to share secrets, but we know that H does it often with Lou
You lean on someone you trust but also, let’s be honest, we do that a lot when we start dating someone
Arm around the waist - mostly Lou with H, again one of his favourite spots
We know Lou can be possessive but not in a negative way. If you cannot display PDAs you want to feel that the person next to you is yours and want them to feel it. It is very sensual
Sitting on the lap - how many times we have joked about LouisandHarry being a single person
It shows that you are pretty intimate and that possibly you have been together a while. Also arms wrapping each other - H’s waist but also H holding on to Lou’s arm
And as per the tweet above, holding a knee is a sign of closeness and obviously desire. You are mine - again
Holding the wrist
It can be a sign of an unhealthy relationship, true, but in their case it’s a soft hold, sometimes it dissolves into a caress, a sign of a passionate relationship
Or just simply standing next to each other. Yes here they were flirting and Lou was drinking the water quite seductively with the microphone in between his legs ...
But how many times we have seen them in the same room, at concerts, gravitating to each other, almost rotating their bodies towards each other?
All of these are open to interpretation but for me they are pretty clear a sign they are in an healthy, long term, passionate and caring relationship. Who can see that is a lucky person, since they get to witness something beautiful
