Oh man...that sounds really sad.

I thought I was rather held-back as far as physical contact goes, but ****, I can shake hands just fine. And meeting a female family member is usually accompanied by 3 kisses on the cheeks.

Urban Ranger · June 24, 2003, 12:24

Rogan, it sounds like you have problems

FrustratedPoet · June 24, 2003, 12:29

I think he was being sarcastic, guys.

Lorizael · June 24, 2003, 12:54

I don't particularly like touching or being touched by anyone. I always stay at the outskirts of social gatherings and usually shy away when people get too close.

Basically, there are four people I'm comfortable touching. These are my four closest friends. Two of them are male (one is a brother), two of them are female (and one of the females I'm romantically involved with), so there's really no distinction between the sexes for me.

I'm not even comfortable when my mother hugs me.

I guess I probably wouldn't mind an attractive person hugging me though.

Rogan - oddly enough - I feel the same way. Sex, though enjoyable, is really icky.

Doesn't surprise me Rogan. I think you're telling the truth about yourself.

Jaguar · June 24, 2003, 16:24

Rogan's post is wavering between sarcasm and truth.

Which is it?

Spiffor · June 25, 2003, 06:57

Rogan, you'd better never meet me then. I am a shake-hands fanatic, to the point that I don't consider shaking hands to be touching someone else at all. I shake hands with acquaintances or unknown people indiscriminately, every time I say hello or goodbye.

I don't shake hands with female acquaintance, I rather kiss them on the cheek (4 times, that's the Breton way !

). However, the German lifestyle took its toll on the subject, since the Germans simply don't greet them by kissing on the cheek. I've lost some kissing power

The funny thing is, I am still attracted to women. I like to look at the skimpily clad young women in their tiny sumer dresses on summers days and that sort of thing. But I would rather just look, thanks very much.

hi ,

become a priest then , .....

maybe you just need some time with the right person , or the right state of mind , ......

maybe its just a mid live crisis , .....

have a nice day

It wasn't sarcasm.

The first post was hyperbole - exageration for effect. I don't really get nervous around my wife (

), by I still don't like being touched by her. (Although I would never tell her this, as she definitely likes to be hugged and things, and I dutifully do my duty).

The second post was truthful.

Spiffor: Here in Geneva, the tradition is to kiss 3 times. I do it, not to be impolite, but I don't like it.

UR: Why does this imply I have problems? I still love my wife very much and we have a great marriage. Why does someone who doesn't like physical contact much automatically have problems? That is like saying that someone who doesn't like baseball has problems. It would be a problem for a baseball player I suppose, but I am not a porn star so who cares?

hi ,

you darn right you kiss everyone three times , with sars and all that nasty stuff going around , .....

have a nice day

Bereta_Eder · June 25, 2003, 09:15

Bereta_Eder · June 25, 2003, 09:37

no, i dont think i'd never do that

the worse ive done is "stealing" a girl from a friend of mine but lets face it, i was lovestruck and she had no interest whatsoever in him no matter how much he wanted it and they werent together either he just had an interest

hi ,

right

so you now admit that it all started with an innocent "touch" , ....

have a nice day

Bereta_Eder · June 25, 2003, 09:45

not even that, just a glance

she had told him she has no interest in him, he just kept trying (which is respected and ok)

of course he told me he'd cut my reproductive organs with his swissknife after ive taken the girl
happily he never did it

Because you have an aversion. Would you say somebody who avoids eating has a problem?

Bugs ****ing Bunny · June 25, 2003, 12:06

Or someone with an aversion to having an enema of leeches?

Urban Ranger · June 25, 2003, 12:27

Doesn't that sounds just like fun?

"This thread reeks of the tragic physical loneliness of the English."

Indeed - I can feel it occasionally, myself. My Italian genes and my English genes are constantly battling with eachother.

I guess we freaked because humans simply have a natural sex drive. Especially, at least stereotypically, men.

Being touchy-feely is an essential part of picking up chicks. It is important to say something that elicits a positive response and then anchor that good feeling to yourself with a touch on the elbow or shoulder.
