Tactile

[Scarlett]

I have never been very good at being tactile. There are various reasons- being a naturally reserved Capricorn type, being single for a long time (so you get out of the habit of touching), and being a teacher- you spend all day every day NOT touching people.

As a result I feel I have become a bit of an island. My friends know me as I am, but I would like to get back to my slightly more tactile roots.

How can I do this withouy people suddenly thinking I have gone all creepy??!

Thanks!

Hi Scarlett. Have you thought about going dancing?

I would suggest starting with your family, give them big hugs and kisses when you see them and when you leave. Once you're comfortable with doing that start with hugs with your closest friends and take it from there.

Tactile is great, I'm very tactile but as I'm sure you know some people really don't like it so remember your audience!!

Scarlett, It's no big deal, Try not to focus upon it. If you are too self aware of your reactions with others, you will only exacerbate something that does not really matter.

Chill out
