So ladies, what does the shoulder pat mean to you?

LOL! Um as far as the hugs go I don't believe in half as*ed hugs. Give a real hug! Real, full hug, pull away. The going down thing? I almost cried laughing. If a guy is going to do that no way am I going to complain. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth and all. If I don't like it, just grab him, yank him up, kiss him and tell him I need him RIGHT NOW! Works like a charm. :)
