Do you like getting touched?

[Macy]

Do you enjoy getting a nice warm hug from someone or being given a pat on the back when you achieve something? Or does that just bug the hell out of you?

 

[Peaceful]

I don't like people touching me.

 

[hotspot]

i'm fine with it when it's a family member ( except my dad) but if it isn't a friend or family member i think it's creepy. although one time a guy came up from behind me, and i felt funny. that could have been an early sign of me being gay.

Don't mind it. Unless you have a germ phobia, doubt it would bother you if their just showing you gratitude.

 

[Kasynlie]

I like it. As long as whoever is doing it is doing it as a joke and just having fun, I don't care all that much.

Depends on who's doing the touching.

 

[Madyy]

It depends on who it is. I usually don't care - I need a good hug sometimes. I get the most hugs on Sunday - the old ladies and some of the guys and other ladies at my church love me and I get at least 10 hugs before church. XD

 

[Crusader]

I love hugs <3

I'm usually quite hostile about that.

I'm usually quite hostile about that.

hostile? What do you do? Jerk yourself away really quick?

 

[Sam.]

I try not to let people touch me in the first place

.

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

Well if someone is coming in to touch you, how do you react to that?

 

[Sam.]

Elaborate more.



Who? What? When? Where? Why?

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

You said you get hostile.. So elaborate on that...

 

[Sam.]

Unless they're family, I don't like people coming up and jumping on me, hugging me etc.

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

I know.. But how do you get hostile..

Geez

 

[Sam.]

I usually shrug them off and swear at them

.

 

[Nebulous's iconNebulous]

You know you might give off the impression that you have some deep issues that are causing that behavior.



Usually people who are afraid of basic innocent human contact went through some traumatic experience at one point in their life.

 

[Peaceful]

or some people just don't like others touching them and invading their personal space..

 

[Sam.]

I think it's plain rude when someone invades my personal space for no reason.
