When a girl let you touch her thigh, it means that she is comfortable with you. It can be something sexual, or just a friendly intimate gesture. If in a romantic situation, it means she is letting me be more romantically and physically intimate, with likely more to come later.
So it's not surprising that a guy would want to grab your thigh, especially if he's attracted to you. For men, touching a woman's thigh can be sexually arousing. But it can also be a way of expressing other emotions, like affection, protection, and even fear.
Touch is one of the biggest mutual attraction signs going. If you touch her, you're showing interest. If she likes being touched by you, she's attracted to you. Note that this applies to even “accidental” touch.
What does it mean when a girl puts her hand on your knee?
Studies show that touching and stroking the knees can signal sexual interest. Of course, if she's stroking your knee, no need for further questions. But if she's stroking hers, this may be a subconscious desire to stroke yours.
Touch her gently so you don't startle her. If you two get really comfortable she might even let you slide your hand down a little lower. Once she's comfortable with you putting your hands on her waist, grab her and swing her around. Then, she'll be facing you.
Small touches and gestures can be a good sign that a woman likes you. If she playfully pats your arm or rubs against you while you are sitting down, it could mean she wants to be closer to you. She also might want to hug you or be open to an invitation to be hugged.
You will know when it is a friendly touch and when the touch lingers on for an extra second. If she touches your arm, neck or your face, she is telling you that she wants to touch you more intimately. She might even touch herself to draw your attention to her body.
Whether a woman's inner thighs touch depends on bone structure, shape of the pelvic girdle and how far apart the hip bones are, in addition to weight, Guarda says. “Most women's thighs touch somewhere from between their crotch and their knees,” even at a healthful thin weight, she says.
Unless you are underweight or have femurs that are extremely bowed or your hip joints live unusually far apart inside the pelvis, your thighs will touch.
“Women have evolved mechanisms to be choosy about whom they mate with and to fear rape by a stranger. However, touch by friends is both relational – women tend to befriend as a buffer against stress – and pleasurable. Touch gives a nice boost of dopamine, the 'feel-good' hormone.”
Keep your touches light and short so she doesn't get uncomfortable. If you two have been having a fun conversation so far, feel free to gently touch her on the hand or on the forearm. Don't go any higher than that, and definitely don't try to grab her waist or anywhere on her torso.
This can have two meanings: either she is interested in you romantically or simply sees you as a friend. She may be a cool buddy and have her arms around your waist, mostly because she feels comfortable with you.
Hugging and other forms of nonsexual touching cause your brain to release oxytocin, known as the "bonding hormone." This stimulates the release of other feel-good hormones, such as dopamine and serotonin, while reducing stress hormones, such as cortisol and norepinephrine.
