Weird Habit
My guy friend puts his hand on everyone's shoulder (guys and girls) when he's talking to them or whatever, standing or walking through the hallways. What's up with that?

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
It's really just a social gesture a lot of people make. Some people throw their arms round their friends shoulders when they talk to them, some people sneak up behind them and tickle them, some people touch their arms and others put their hands on people's shoulders.
It's really just a sign that whoever it is is comfortable around you when they do it.

I guess one reason could be that it gets your attention. It's easy to ignore someones voice, but harder to ignore someone touching you. If you have a problem with it ask him nicely not to.

it's nothing. some of my friends do that too, and it's just a way of building rapport with them, to maybe become better friends and connect with them more. hope this helps

Not to sound racist even if it will, but if he's spanish, it's because their culture is a little more touchy-feely. They've done studies. *nod*
On the other hand, I do it to, when I come up to someone to get their attention. Like, "Hey *shoulder touch* what's up? *shoulder release*" A momentary thing. If he leaves it there, I bet it gets pretty akward.

my friend from school so does that.
he says its just a way to ''bond''
