Love Languages

[Blank123]

There's such a thing as invited touch? I can't imagine ever asking to touch or be touched by someone. At least since the few times I've done so have yielded a response along the lines of "ew, no!"

I figured that physical affection was sort of spontaneous.

it can be verbally invited, or invited by body language.

if, for example, you're out on a date, its not out of line to ask to kiss her for the first time. I've also told friends that I would like to hug them before just assuming they'd be okay with being hugged. someone opening their arms towards you or just generally being very physically close to you is a pretty good indication that they're ok with being touched.

but if someone is keeping their distance from you, have their arms crossed, body pointed away from you constantly, lack of eye contact/smiling etc... those are pretty strong nonverbal cues that they would not be ok with you touching them.

That's kinda right. I'm not anti-touch or anti-gifts, I'm just not used to receiving love that way. Quality Time is definitely top for me.

I will take the test in a little bit, but all the ones I've taken in the past score me as a physical touch kind of girl.

After taking this quiz my primary love language is words of affirmation followed closely by physical touch. Nice love language quiz, thanks for sharing!

This test reminded me how much I hate the words affirmation and validation when talking about relationships.

This test made me feel like a sissy.

After reading all the others I'm wondering why I scored so lowest on physical touch out of everyone. I'm not a robot!

It's not that uncommon and I'm actually surprised I scored a bit higher in that area. I'm not really comfortable with people touching me. I don't mind shaking hands and things like that but pats on the back and things like that just make me uncomfortable. However, I love to hold hands and hug and things of that nature but only with the woman I'm dating. Everyone else needs to keep their hands to themselves.

Looks like I've changed a little.

Oh no, one of those....we have some of you in my sorority.

I've wondered before if forced hugging could be counted as assault

Yeah, but I want to be cuddled and have my hand held if I'm with someone. I just don't like it when I'm not really close to someone emotionally and they want to hug me.

legally speaking... yes

Haha but I doubt it would hold up in court.

A serial hugging investigation? I like the sound of that!

depends o nthe lawyer.. technically the law would be on the side of the prosecution. It'd be tough to show how hugging resulted in 'pain and discomfort' 2 terms that assault must complete. But with the lawyers of today.. i don't doubt that it COULD occur

Just think about the impact that would have on society.

It's an act of violence, not love.
