Is it weird that I have a strange aversion towards hugs?
Why don't you like hugs?
People who hug me make me feel claustrophobic. I am also afraid of contact with naked skin
Don't ever feel like you need to make physical contact with others if you don't feel like it. Everyone has this right.
I'm always told to hug people I don't even know. I think it is just rubbing off on me.
If you are uncomfortable with hugging people, then you don't have to hug anyone and that is your right.
