Default Physical Affection

How do you feel about physical affection?
Are you touchy feely?
Do you hate when someone violates your personal space?
How do you feel about PDA?

It depends who it is with the physical affection, if its like a good friend then fine, but someone i hardly know then that would be weird. I'm not touchy feely myself, and what is PDA ?

I hate physical affection unless it's from someone I'm really close to.

And I HATE my personal space being constantly invaded cos I get claustro.

Same as me, I hate people shaking my hand all the time. It's like I've met you 50 times before so why the handshake? What's wrong with actually speaking? I'm not fussed about hugs or kissing as greetings either, it's kind of meaningless when you do it all the time. I'm not one of those ponsey Latin people either so I don't want to kiss other men on the cheek and I don't want them to rub olive oil onto my chest or whatever. With a girlfriend, that's different of course.

I love physical affection as I am an affectionate person and when its with someone you care about - its always best to get physical. Also it can always talk louder than words like if your mate was upset about something, sometimes its better not to say anything and just give them a cuddle and they will open up without you prompting/pushing them too.
Then when you are in a relationship with someone its even better - obvious reasons.

I dont really tend to be touchy feely though like all the time, like i am one of my only friends that dont hug when meeting, i am just like hey how u doing?! not OMG! Ahhh! *runs to hug* - that does my box in.

Personal space does get to me but its because I can get stressed from it - I cant have someone working within my working area and I dont like people in my way in bed (people who you cant move when asleep is worse) cos I love my sleep and that just gets in the way.

PDA like holding hands etc is alright and the odd little kiss but when you are in town and there are people eating the faces off each other I am just like "Ew get a room" but everything else is alright.

I personally like my space, and even when im in a relationship im not too keen on kissing and holding hands outside its just weird for me lol. I keep personal things personal, yeh i give a peck now and again but I would never like full on make out in public... never would. (Unless in a club or something haha)

And I used to always be weird with people touching me, but I cant anymore... with acting and all that jazz. I have to be comfortable with people touching the most private of areas =/

Its good, but theres a time and a place

Are you touchy feely?

Yes

Do you hate when someone violates your personal space?

Depends who it is

How do you feel about PDA?

It annoys me actually, again I think theres a time and a place for it. Holding hands is alright but me and my gf are not like that at all

I have a huge issue with the whole thing. I have some problems with touchy people or being touched by someone I don't know. I never hug my parents, or my friends. The only person I am confident with, is my girlfriend (obviously).
That's why people think I am quite 'cold' sometimes but it's just that I cannot stand hugs or stuff.

I hug my friends sometimes when saying bye or greeting them etc., but that seems to be the norm - at least within my group of friends. Although I do know of someone who isn't comfortable with that - I'm still friends with her, but it's always seemed odd to the rest of us. We respect the fact she's not a touchy feely person though! To be fair, neither am I aside from the occasional hug.

I don't like it at all when someone is invading my personal space, but usually people can tell when they're doing so. I find it odd when people are physical with strangers. As for PDA... I'm not necessarily uncomfortable with it, but I never do it apart from the occasional quick kiss or holding hands - definitely not one of those couples who are all over each other. I don't think there's a problem with those who do it, but I don't see the need myself.

I'm not a touchy feely person at all but then sometime I crave it.

It depends on the day.

I'm a very touchy-feely person. I'm always giving hugs, holding hands with mates or even something as small as having a mate sitting on my lap. It's almost like.. knowing there's someone there? I'm the same with my boyfriend. Regardless of where we are, I do like to be close to him [understandably difficult in some places]. I'm seriously happy just laying on the sofa/on the bed watching a film or something in his arms. I wouldn't say I crave it but I do tend to want/need attention from him, so if he's busy doing something, he'll often take a break to come and sit with me. It's similar with my mates but on a lesser scale.

I hate people invading my space unless I'm close to them. As for PDA, I'm totally fine with it. Although I'd rather not see people practically get it on in the middle of Starbucks, it's their business, so whatever. I can see how it makes people uncomfortable/not like it though. Personally, I can't really do it anyway as part of a gay couple. Well, I can, I'd just prefer not to. In fact, it's more fun because I never know when my bf's gonna grab my hand, or pull me behind something to give me a quick kiss when nobody's looking. When we went to Brighton/go to Soho, we tend to be a lot more open and hold hands down the streets and stuff. Even then, we've never taken PDA too far in public.
-coughs- Unless I'm drunk.
