When you hold your fingers beside the candle, you are not directly in the path of the flame and therefore not exposed to the intense heat that comes directly from the flame. The heat dissipates quickly as it moves away from the flame, so your fingers do not get burned.
However, when you hold your fingers above the flame, you are directly in the path of the intense heat that rises upwards from the flame. This heat is much more concentrated and can quickly burn your skin. That is why it is not safe to hold your fingers directly above a flame.

The area just above the flame is hotter than the area beside the flame. This is because the flame is a region of combustion, and combustion releases heat. The heat from the combustion rises, so the area just above the flame is hotter than the area beside the flame. This is why you can hold your fingers beside the candle without harm but not above the flame.
