Does he like holding hands though?

I do not - I had never done it with any adult man until a guy I date (dinners, a couple of kisses, nothing else, but a very nice guy) tried holding hands with me for a few moments and for me it was way too funny to sustain for any length of time, because to me adults kiss, engage in sex, and do other such things that are age-appropriate for them. I did hold hands with my boyfriend in third grade and it was very very touching and I still remember how touching it was, but since I am no longer in third grade, I cannot think of holding hands with an adult man and keeping a straight face. Plus, the guy I date is way taller than I am and it was really awkward to walk next to him while holding hands with him.

Your H may not be like me, but I am just showing that not everybody likes texting, holding hands, etc. etc. It is not a given.
