I Hate Being Touched

I hate to be touched and have hated it since I was younger. My friends used to walk up to me and poke me because they knew I hated it and would jump, they thought it was hilarious. Well we were kids so I just dealt with it, they're...

For some reason I just have issues with only certain people touching me. For example, I can not be touching my mom or sister. To be honest, I do not have a very good relationship with any of my family, which possibly could play a part...

There's something that happened to me that's a big part in why I hate being touched:  I've been raped several times.  It still happens to me a lot and it scares me and haunts me almost everyday.  :((  I feel guilty...

I hope this is not offensive at all, but I found this group only this morning, I  read a few stories, made a few comments, wrote my own little story......and then continured to think about it for the rest of the day. ...

Baffling as it is, I literally cringe when people touch me. Or even get too close. I have learned to not allow it to affect my interaction with my children but I admit, it is not easy. I have no idea where this comes from but I have...

I do not like being touched - goes back to boundaries being violated as a kid. I can't even stand it when kids hug me. My niece is very affectionate, but she and her brother had to learn that Auntie does not like to be hugged for longer...

Growing up with a father who have terrible and unpredictable temper and behave, I never wanted to be any where close to him out of fear I'd piss him off.
My mom was very loving and sweet, but she was always trying really hard to keep my...

I don't like to be touched by anyone. I need my three feet of personal space. I need a force field. My husband takes it as a personal slight and can't understand it because he wants some sort of physical contact with me every minute...

I hate being touched...don't get me wrong, I'm not scornful..it's just I feel awkward and then the person realises and it gets even worse if we are in a conversation. Man or woman, it doesn't matter...especially children..that's the...

A woman is a Sister
A woman is a Wife
A woman is an Aunt
A woman is a Daughter
A woman is meant to be protected no matter the cost
A woman is the giver of life and of nurturing
A woman is the foundation of strength to a man
A woman...

Touching just reminds me of bad things... I freaked out when one of my friends touched me. Its so scary... I'm sorry...

she is a relative ...anyway she thought she was joking or what ! i do not know ...that happened while agotold me to go away then she touched both hands and push me away at that point I felt so angry and like getting mad at her ..yell at...

Why do these infected hands keep plaguing my mind?
They're foul surges against my body
like tremors of purifying quakes; And I cannot breathe.
They lap onto my mind, a sea of mire and dissorientation.
Threats fed to me with honey and...

I feel things from people when they touch me and i don't like it. I don't mean like i get goose bumps or butterflies in my tummy either, i am talking about stuff i don't want to see or know about. I must avoid crowds with the...

I don't know where to start. I guess when i first met this man there were signs everywhere flashing super bright that this man was no good. But I was infatuated with this man. He was beautiful. He was an alcoholic but I thought he...

I am beat up every school day at school by bullies.  it gets so bad that I bleed, so when ever anyone touches me, even hugs me, I have a lot of hesitation.  it doesn't matter who it is...
 

I don't like being touched. It gives me a weird general sort of creepy feeling. I like to think of myself as kind of in a bubble and that's my private space. So when I touch someone I feel like I am invading some ones private space. I...

It's not a phobia and it's but it seems to be getting worse as i get older. I don't like to be touched, and it's not just with strangers. I don't even feel comfortable when my family touches me. The only people I feel comfortable...

..kind of. I've been kissed a couple times, but I don't reciprocate. I just awkwardly sit there as someone uses me as their kissing post. It's not like I don't like the person, I just hate any kind of physical contact. I tense up when...

I always knew I wasn't the touchy-feely sort.

As a child, I hated being picked up. My earliest memories are screaming to be put back down and struggling to get out of my mother's grip. Later, I invented an extreme fear of heights so...
