Are you a touchy-feely person or a don't-touch person?

Wnat makes you so?

No, I absolutely hate people touching me outside of sex. My attachment style is most definitely avoidant.

Interesting that you are okay with it during sex though ?

Would you say that it is because you miss intimacy and sex allows it to happen ?

I’ve always been a very tactile guy. Even in a friendly way, I like to do little arm touches etc to communicate that I care. With guys I might do a cheeky mock punch on the arm if I’m rubbing them.

Romantically it’s how I show I got the feels.

Nope, it's a way of 'reclaiming' the incident/sex in general apparently. Counselling taught me a lot about why I behave like I do, very interesting.

Anyway this is a bit serious, so moving on

I was just talking in terms of meeting people from here. So there’s already a connection and intimacy established if we’ve got as far as meeting up. And if there’s an ‘awkwardness boundary’ then it’s going to spring from one of us being more tactile than the other. And that’s going to be a different vibe with every person (or couple) you meet, right?

It's to do with regularity of touch, and where

I think you need to read the room too - I wouldn't just hug anyone

I'd think if they were meeting me socially, we'd have read enough into each other pre-meet to know if it was safe ground or not

A hug, to me, is a relatively quick a fleeting affair, with no wandering hands

Having someone consitently touch my leg or hands or face in a social situation would be too personal

I find those areas too intimate with someone you barely know

Obviously, if the meet is going well, one would start to accept such touches but not from the get go

In that you can tolerate touch when dancing (and sex) but not otherwise?

Some folks don’t wash their hands or arse. Forgot to ad I love a massage

I enjoy a massage too. Paying for touch is the only touch I experience these days.

More for Thai and deep tissue not hanky pankie "

I do like a deep tissue massage.

"Tactile during coitus; hands off at other times.

I would probably run my hands through the hair of a man who had his head in my lap.

I love cuddling my great-grandchildren.

You are not someone I would hug without asking. If I have, I apologise - I must have been caught up in the moment of all the other huggers.

"

I'm fine with people I know hugging me. I understand that some people are huggers.

None of us are particularly huggy in my family but my sister in law and some of my nieces are. Some of my inlaws hug goodbye, some don't.

It doesn't offend me, it's just something we didn't do growing up.

I only hugged my friend of 50 years once, when she told me her mum had passed away.

We're a "See ya later" kind of friendship.

Love hugs bigger hugger hug a tree in pvt

Is this welcomed by people around you?

In 12 step it's positively encouraged, so now I tend to hug ppl, do say giz a squeeze

I know 12-step has not worked for some because of this encouragement to hug. If it works for you, that's a good thing.

"

It's personal choice to who I hug, I dont hug everyone in 12 step as some are dicks

"Not into hugging strangers of doung that pretend kissing on the cheek nosence .when you meet .but those I'm it mate with I'm very hand on and allow equal access ."

The air kiss is a odd, isn't it? I do with some as there is a sort of stiffness to it that stops a hug.

The power of healing in a hug is vastly underrated, I believe.

I've never had an adult I can hold close, to make me empty my emotions into.

Appropriate touch/hugs release oxytocin, there is a lot of healing potentially available with a hug.

I wonder how much physical and mental pain has been stored up because of that long period of not being able to touch people during the pandemic?

"No, I absolutely hate people touching me outside of sex. My attachment style is most definitely avoidant.

Is this a long-held attachment style, from childhood, or a change in style?

Bit of both really, but moreso from my teens when I was assaulted.

Interesting that you are okay with it during sex though ?

Would you say that it is because you miss intimacy and sex allows it to happen ?

Nope, it's a way of 'reclaiming' the incident/sex in general apparently. Counselling taught me a lot about why I behave like I do, very interesting.

Anyway this is a bit serious, so moving on "

Sorry. Won’t mention again

I prefer others to be tactile as its not natural for me to keep my hands to myself especially the more relaxed I am with that person. But you just know some people arnt comfortable with it and I have to make a conscious effort to keep my hands to myself which makes it hard for me to relax with them

"Touchy feely can get you trouble, only do this with permission

Thanks for raising consent. It is in my thoughts about my own touchy-feely style.

Has someone said something to make you feel uncomfortable?

No, but I have been thinking about entitlement and whether my natural huggy style is appropriate or makes people feel uncomfortable.

I think about this, too, and only ever touch people I know won’t feel uncomfortable ie good friends, long term fab friends, partners etc"

This is why I do an open armed, from a personal space distance, question for a hug first, and we can move in together. If they give me don't approach me body language, then we can both skip contact happily without awkwardness

"Not at all

I think a hug is a re-assuring and friendly greeting, but recognise it's too much for some

As for touchy hands or constant need to be touching / against someone just isn't me

Others doing it to me can bring on little stifled spikes of anxiety

I suppose the judgement of when it's reassuring and welcome and when it will induce anxiety is a very fine line.

It's to do with regularity of touch, and where

I think you need to read the room too - I wouldn't just hug anyone

I'd think if they were meeting me socially, we'd have read enough into each other pre-meet to know if it was safe ground or not

A hug, to me, is a relatively quick a fleeting affair, with no wandering hands

Having someone consitently touch my leg or hands or face in a social situation would be too personal

I find those areas too intimate with someone you barely know

Obviously, if the meet is going well, one would start to accept such touches but not from the get go"

Neither of you have made me feel uncomfortable. You must both assess the situation correctly without realising.

I am touchy feely generally , hello and goodbyes comes with 4 kisses , 2 on each cheeks and/or a hug, it’s a cultural “inbred” thingy. My friends are used to it and my family were raised the same.

I don’t kiss every work colleagues or no work would ever get done but it is common custom where I am originally from.

I also hug for reasons like showing support, comfort, empathy, reassurance, congratulations, good wishes etc…

I'm quite tactile with someone I know and feel comfortable with. Or I'm getting to know.

But with someone unknown, I can sometimes feel very uncomfortable with people touching/hugging me.

I like simple touches when I'm getting to know someone - a touch of the arm, fingers interlocking. Little brushes of hair away from the face. Physical contact/ intimacy is important to me.
