Do you feel comfortable touching other people?

Not in a sexual way, like a pat on the shoulder?

I see people do it on TV all the time, it even happens at work, of course I usually jump out my skin when someone does it to me.

Maybe I'm repressed, maybe I'm on the spectrum, I never know the right time to do this to someone else, and if I do manage it, it always feels awkward.

I'm trying to think who I've touched since COVID...

I'm more comfortable touching people when I'm punch drunk happy.

I think everyone gets more handsy with booze.

Used to hug my parents before I went to bed as a kid. Now I'm just not a toucher. A handshake every now and then, maybe a fist bump, but that's normal courtesy.

Just feels awkward now... I couldn't tell you the last time, nor the last person I hugged.

I hugged someone at work today, she's thinking of putting down her dog, that sounds like the sort of person who needs a hug.

I'm autistic.

(So the answer is "no" if you need more.)

((I hate even brushing against someone accidentally.))

I hate shaking hands with people.
