I'm not, nor ever have been a very physically affectionate person. It takes alot for me to trust someone physically, and to even hug them. When strangers come up and hug me, it always kind of throws me for a loop, and I don't really know how to react other than returning the gesture with a stiff body and robotic like movements that seem paced out.

I know exactly what that feeling's like.

The strangers hugging you thing isn't abnormal. It's really quite odd at first, and a response takes so much longer to process than you'd think. Sometimes you can go through the psychobabble and relate it back to some old feeling or childhood experience, but most of the time it's just a little foreign. It takes time, but it will eventually become less awkward.

We all long for affection, even if it's just physical touch. You're too precious to go that long without experiencing it. It'll happen.

better to wait it out then go rushing into things blindly. good things come to those who wait after all.

I won't make easy Spice Girls references, but I will say that I relate to a great deal of this.

that makes me feel better to know that i'm not fully alone. and please don't hold back on the spice girls, they always were a guilty pleasure for me anyway. :-*
