I just don't receive them often enough. *hug* If a ya know situation happens with a lot of touching, once in a blue moon, I'm good for a year. But theoretically I can feel touch starved, I guess. I can't say that I dislike specific types of touching, but if it has a romantic vibe to it, it can feel uncomfortable. Which is most true for cuddling. Also, I don't like LOOOOONG touching. Cuddling is always kind of looong. And after 30 minutes at least, you need to get away from me. I need to breathe. Some people can cuddle for hours and I would find this extremely uncomfortable. Even the cutest, cleanest and nicest humans have some peculiar bad / annoying qualities that I just cannot stand for too long.

Keith Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 It's honestly really confusing for me. I mean I think I quite like hugs, or at least I love the idea of being hugged/hugging somone, but I'm always to embarrassed to ask for any, so I don't get hugs/hug other people often. And about other stuff... Well, I also quite enjoy holding hands as well! (But I don't do it often, for the same reason) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunar Nova Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 i mean i will sometimes allow physical touch, but only if i know/am comffortable with said person, but holding hands (i only do this with one person, and theyre dating someone already) i will sometimes do because Anxious habit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I used the word "cute" for humans, I actually don't think adult humans are ever really cute... (I guess I just adjusted myself to the romantic language to call grown ass men or women "cute" ... though my actual reaction to this is "what?"). Sexy or hot, maybe but not "cute". I can understand "cute" applied to babies and small children to some degree. I mean they're much smaller for starters (not a > 50 kg human clinging onto you).

My cat weighs a little under 5kg so he’s not too heavy and also soft and warm :) 1 hour ago, DeltaAro said: On 1/24/2023 at 6:42 PM, Nix said: Kissing (three times) is sort of the national greeting here, but I don't really like that. 🤒🦠 Coronavirus says: "I approve this greeting.

I mean, last friday I was invited to a party but I chose to hang with two of my friends to start watching The Last of Us. And now I hear from a friend that did go that about 2/3rds of the party goers has Corona now, her included :-/ Touch can be really dangerous 😬 (And I also wouldn’t call an adult cute, they’re just… not.)

I am now VERY anti-touch with people I don't know. someone pinched a large portion of the back of my neck, and I know it wasn't an accident because you cant just do that accidentally 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that halo nerd Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I would prefere if touching could stay bettwen hands personly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rather be Reading Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I'd rather strangers not touch me, but I like being touched by friends and family every once in a while as long as it's platonic. However, I suck at initiating touch, and I've been told being hugged by me feels like "being hugged by a very sweet piece of wood". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxIsCosmic Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 I’m very open to touch espresso from friends I tend to be a bit more cautious with strangers but if someone ever really needs a hug I’m glad to give it ^-^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t take it that far because some do want kids but yeah, I just don’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
