There are people out there known for being "touchy feely".

This means they are LITERALLY hands on people...........that like to hug a lot, touch your arm/shoulder/waist/leg when talking to you, or just be "up in your personal space".

They aren't sexual or making passes.......they are just very tactile people.

What do you think of them?


Are you one of them?

Personally, I can take a hug. But not long ones.

As for just being touchy feely, I don't like it. I consider it "raping my personal space".

I'm all for hugs, handshakes, shoulder pats, etc....when the time is right and it's called for........but not someone who just has to be all over you when they are talking to you. No. Just no.

Ick!

Unless I've known them long enough.

If they've had the jab, don't touch me and preferably stay 6 feet away.

/----/ I have a friend who is that way. He has to reach out and touch you every other sentence. I put up with that.

In college, back in the 1970s, I was walking across campus when I crossed paths with four guys. A few steps behind them was a 5' 2" girl, kinda cute. I never saw her before. She walked up to me and said, "I'm huggy-feely, touchy-kissy. Are you?"
The guys kept walking but looked back at me. I was taken back too much to say anything other than a weak smile and a nod of my head.
I never figured out what that was all about. I never saw her again after that.

I never hug. I honor personal boundaries

That depends upon whose the touchy and whose the fedly.
 
I'm kinda like that, and will hug or touch an arm or shoulder, but that's about it. Mostly depends on the person involved and if I think they'll accept it, but I don't crowd anyone. Nor do I like those who crowd or get too touchy with me.

Depends .. how big are her boobies?
 
If I am already close or related to such a person, I tolerate it and try to be gracious. Otherwise, I recoil as gracefully as possible.

On a related note, I am repulsed by routine expressions of love to end telephone calls. Almost invariably, it is not only untrue, but the opposite of the truth.

She would have started screaming the second you touched her and the guys would have rolled you. Good decision.

Personally, I'm not a hugger or any other sort of touchy-feely person. As for those who approach me. A wave or a handshake from the guys is fine. I've never had a problem with women hugging or touching me as I like the ladies. But, I don't get touchy with them though. I like them but also respect their desire for space.
 
I fine with greeting type hugs from close family or friends, but subtlety back up when people invade my personal space in conversation.
