Introductory handshakes w/ women - SpiderKing - 05-01-2013

When first meeting women in a casual setting, I give them a hug and peck on the cheek, european style.

In professional settings, Im more formal and opt for the handshake. Thumb up, palm vertical, firm grip, two shakes, release. A number of times, girls offer their right hand palm down, similar to how they show off an engagement ring. I see it, think "Does this lizard expect me to kiss her hand?" and proceed with the standard handshake.

Anyone else encounter this? Is it a misread on my part, or is there something else going on?

Reading too much into it. No chick in 2013 expects you to kiss her hand.

I hate introductions with American women since I spent a lot of time in South America. I feel like a dip shit shaking their hands, but when you go in for the kiss on the cheek, a lot of American women are dumb and think it's strange. Some of the only girls I've met that aren't socially awkward with the kiss on the cheek are New Yorkers. I feel strange shaking a girls hand at introduction.

Depends on the situation, if it's a professional situation keep it to a handshake.

If its casual social, why don't you take her hand and pull her in for a casual hug greeting?

When forced to shake hands I always do this with a girl I'm attracted to. And I'd like to think I'm much better than this guy is at it. I give them a nice little grin and hold on for an extended shake while making small talk/introduction. If meeting in a club like atmosphere and it's a friend of a friend I've met for the first time and we are parting ways, I'll grab her softly on the elbow or forearm while she's walking away and whisper in her ear (If it's loud) something like, "Nice to meet you, see you around." And give another grin. I've gotten lots of positive reactions to this.
