If you start hugging random people there's a chance one of them has an erroneous conclusion?

aphephobic?



Do you mean Haphephobia?



There is a world of difference between not liking having your personal space invaded by strangers and the morbid fear of being touched! That's two erroneous conclusions you've jumped to.

aphephoic, haphephoic, haphophobia, hapnohobia etc. These are the same as quoted from wiki below:



The fear of being touched (also known as aphephobia[1], haphephobia[1][2], haphophobia[2][3], hapnophobia[2], haptephobia[1][2], haptophobia[1][2][3], thixophobia[1]) is a rare specific phobia that involves the fear of touching or of being touched. It is an acute exaggeration of the normal tendencies to protect one's personal space, expressed as a fear of contamination or of the invasion, and extending even to people whom its sufferers know well.[4][5]

I didn't say anyone specifically here was that way. I meant it as in one could be or if one were... I think it's called the passive voice but I'm not certain. My english isn't perfect.



Though to be honest I would rather do something nice and die for it tomorrow than to think those kind of thoughts and live to a ripe old age.

What an angry face for such a simple statement I made. As I said before I wasn't refering to anyone here specifically.



The highest place in God's eyes are reserved for those who don't live for themselves, and those who sacrifice their life for another.



I am sorry if anything I stated offend you. Not certain if I should take that emoticon to represent your actual feeling when writing that or not...
