Talking with a friend over coffee on the weekend, I think I realized something...
Some may know that I've been "dating" a lady for almost 10 months now, and so far all we do is do stuff together, as much as once a week, nothing wrong with that I guess...
Now to the topic of touch, I have struggled with touching anyone my whole life, whether men or women, I see guys who so easily interact with other women, both in conversation but especially in touch, with touch I mean even non-sexual touching, just fooling around as friend to friend...
With my "girlfriend" over all these months I struggle with touch, the notion of when to start holding hands among other things or snuggling on a couch/sofa, I've thought about but haven't gotten there yet, and I know touch is a way to get better intimacy... The one standard touch thing is a hug whenever I drop her off after an outing, and even hugging doesn't come naturally to me...
My struggle, how to touch anyone (appropriately of course), maybe some of your struggles, and I want to find a way to get over it somehow...
