Finally figured out what that "touch starved" thing meant
Dont want to go into how i figured this out but the realisation hit me hard. I always thought i never really wanted relationships but maybe i do just for the sake of being able to hug someone, Maybe closeness with others isnt over rated?

I told my therapist yesterday that I’m asexual and she asked me to explain what that meant for me. So I did. And she validated me! It feels wonderful to know that there are people in counseling who understand!

Anyone else feel VERY uncomfortable when they're sexualized?
I know the look when people wanna do that with me. I don't like it. But sometimes in the past it was 'flattering' to be acknowledged as worth something (even if vain for physical appearance), specifically because I don't feel valued or appreciated by anyone. For this I mean when I was just walking past someone or they were, so momentary and not prolonged.
Then sometimes (most of the time actually) I feel very uncomfortable and disgusted by it. It's just creepy and unsettling to me when people have eyes locked on me, with that specific smirk/smile on their face. And I just get this feeling like I should hide or get away, it's just unsettling.
I have a lot of experiences with this despite not showing interest in a relationship of any kind with anyone lol.
Do you relate?
