I’ve never posted anywhere on Reddit before so please forgive me if I’m posting in the wrong sub! (If so, could someone please direct me to the right one).ĭefinitely not the first one though I see where you’re coming from! I’ve been very fortunate to have a very good upbringing from my parents and have always been very close to them! They both still kiss me on the cheek before bed haha (despite how embarrassing that might be to admit on here haha).īut I think you might have some merit with the second suggestion. It doesn’t affect me hugely but it bothers me that I don’t know what it is. If anyone has any idea what this may be or if it really is just some sort of quirk I have please let me know. I don’t know if it’s just a weird bodily reflex? But no one else I have spoken to has this problem. As far as I can remember I think I started feeling this way in secondary school but I cannot think of a single event which would have affected me in this way.

Most of my friends and family are now used to this and just avoid touching me softly if they can help it, but it’s been a bit of an issue in relationships before and I just honestly have no idea what it is or why I feel this way. Whether it’s accidental, or as a sign of affection it makes me feel super uncomfortable, (just want to point out that I don’t ever feel uncomfortable in a s**ual sort of way? I just feel a bit gross when it happens I’m really not sure how to describe it) and I always either ask them to do it again but less soft, or I just have to touch that area of my body over and over again until it feels okay again. So basically, I (F19) really really hate when someone touches me softly.

I get angry when someone touches me
