Purses

Girls, how does your guy feel about touching, holding, or transporting (I won't say "carrying") your purse for whatever reason?

Guys, same question to you, regarding your girl's purse?

I just think my boyfriend is pretty cool about it. He will offer to take my purse if I need to bend down and tie my shoe. And he doesn't let it dangle from one finger as if the things inside are going to jump out onto him, but he actually grasps the strap firmly. He'll also pick it up off the table to hand it to me when we're leaving my house or a restaurant, sometimes, when I don't get to it first. One thing he is great about too is after church, if we're going to stand around and visit for a little outside with people, he'll offer to take my purse and Bible to his car so that I don't have to hold them.

Don't get the wrong idea, though. He's just extremely sweet and eager to help me out however he can, even if it has to do with my purse. I think it's a positive thing, and a bit amusing, but still charming!

It's a big deal to me that he's willing to do these things, but maybe it shouldn't be?

I just know guys, and once had a boyfriend himself, who act(ed) real funny about holding a purse. Perhaps it makes a difference, though, when it's actually your girlfriend's or wife's, and not just a friend's purse. Although my ex would still let it hang by one finger when I would ask him to hold it for a moment, and we dated for 2 years. My current boyfriend would probably carry it around in Wal-mart for me if the need arose for some odd reason.

Just a topic I thought would be interesting to discuss!
