I never trust a bloke who tries to break your hand. It's an attempt at intimidation when they do that.A firm handshake whilst looking you in the eyes projects sincerity.You can also get the types who shake your hand firmly enough but they are looking over your shoulder at the same time.These guys have something they don't want you to recognise in their eyes. Then there are the ones who want to hang onto your hand for a long time.they are the ones who aren't really interested in what you have to say but want to be sure that you heard what they have to say. Then there are the limp wristed "Hello sweetie" handshakes.No comment on them.LOL.

First impressions stay with a person for a long time. A firm handshake and direct eye contact are important factors if you want to appear confident and friendly. I believe that goes for both males and females. Personally, I am turned off by a flimsy handshake from either.

Yes. If his handshake isn't firm and dry, he has an uphill battle to gain my confidence and respect.

Yes, I do.......very much.Their handshake isn't something I start out to notice, but when it feels like a cold, dead, limp fish, you can't help but notice. Or when it's crushing, adn I have on one or two rings with wide bands, I could just cry from the pain. A lot of these kids and teens should be taught how to shake hands, b/c they barely extend their hand, and then it's half curled and pointing downwards. They don't grasp your hand.
And yes, the look in his / her eyes and eye contact is very important.... Someone said the eyes are the window of the soul.
