Those touches that define relationships, whether that relationship is romantic or platonic. They can be a big deal, or just a sign of how comfortable the relationship is.

Oᴘᴛɪᴏɴs
1. ᴛʜᴇ ᴀᴄᴄɪᴅᴇɴᴛᴀʟ ʙʀᴜsʜ
"Ack! Did you just touch me?" That first touch with another person - usually nothing more than an accidental brush - can stir up feelings and nervousness. Or maybe you both know each other so well that you brush against each other all the time without bother.
2. ᴛʜᴇ ᴀʀᴍ ᴛᴏᴜᴄʜ
Sometimes life is hard and the only way you can let someone know that you're there for them is a simple supportive touch. Maybe you need to get someone to stop running away and pay attention to you, or maybe you're grabbing someone for conflict purposes. Whatever the reason, touching or grabbing someone's arm is the best idea.
3. ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴀɴᴅ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ sʜᴏᴜʟᴅᴇʀ
Not just for support or conflict, touching someone's shoulder is closely bound to the arm touch, but somewhat more intimate and certain.
4. ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴀɴᴅ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ʙᴀᴄᴋ
"Hey, how ya doin'?" A hand on the back can be a wonderful way to greet a friend, or maybe just to pull a prank. Or perhaps it means something entirely different to you.
5. ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴀɴᴅ ʜᴏʟᴅ
Is there anything more likely to cause butterflies than the first hand hold? I can't think of much. When your relationship goes on longer, hand holding is a familiar comfort. For friends, it's largely the same. Who hasn't grabbed a friend's hand to keep hold of them in a crowd?
6. ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴀɴᴅ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ʟᴇɢ
Whether intimate, comfortable, or something more, placing a hand on another person's leg is an iconic touch that is seen in so many places. It's a nice way to be affectionate in public, a hand under the table.
7. ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴜɢ
Aww, everyone likes a good hug. It can be so many things - hesitant, hearty, or just leading to snuggles.
8. ᴛʜᴇ sɴᴜɢɢʟᴇ
Speaking of snuggles. Crash on a couch and get comfortable, this is all about lounging together and talking about everything or watching TV (possibly with running commentary).
9. ᴛʜᴇ ᴄʜᴀsᴛᴇ ᴋɪss
That quick peck - lips, cheek, whatever. It's a lovely way to tell someone your feelings without being too PDA.
10. ᴛʜᴇ ᴛᴏᴜᴄʜ ᴏɴ ᴛʜᴇ ɴᴇᴄᴋ
There's something innately intimate about touching another person's neck, or allowing them to touch yours. It's such a sensitive area for many, so lips or fingers brushing against it are a wonderful gesture of the relationship.
Of course, you might just want to throttle them.
11. ᴛʜᴇ ɴᴏᴛ-sᴏ-ᴄʜᴀsᴛᴇ ᴋɪss
It's full on PDA time. You know how it goes - those couples trying to eat each others' faces off. Well, maybe you're not that bad, but a good snogging sessh sounds pretty lush right now, doesn't it?
12. ᴛʜᴇ ᴡɪʟᴅᴄᴀʀᴅ
Take your pick, make up your own. You know how this option goes.
