What do you think about "touchy feely" people

The very best thing about the covid was the social distancing. If someone invades what I consider to be "my personal space" I'll ask them to back off.

Sometimes, just for fun, I'll start coughing.

6 ft rule long before Covid.

I really hate when the close talker has horrible breath.

Used to work with this really nice guy years ago.
He had the nickname "deathbreath" because he smoked heavily and drank coffee all day.
OMG his breath was TOXIC.

If my hugs are long at all, it is due to how much death I have endured over the past 30 years. My first funeral was either this month 30 years ago or last month. Anyway, since then, because of my extended family being as big as it is/was, I've been to so many funerals, I can't remember them all.

God bless you always!!!

Then I recommend that you don't go to the middle east. They like to get a bit close for comfort. But if you back off, it can be construed as distrust.

Allow them their happiness.
It’s only a moment of discomfort.

Too bad for them… I’m contagious.

The stupidity of tRumplings is just mind boggling.

You can't catch a vaccine, you dolt.

Exactly . It catches you.
It’s called being poisoned .

What a great back of a t-shirt saying.

Maybe combine it with this:

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.

Thank you for making my point in a way I never could have from the reasonable side of the aisle.

There are hugs, then there is gropping. I have seen a lot of both. At church Baptist tend to hug a lot, I just extend my hand for a handshake before they hug. That useualy keeps them at an arm's length distance.
