discussion Do you hate when a random person touches you?

[Eóghan]

i've seen this popular meme a lot lately and i'm like who cares

i mean i'm the last person to touch a stranger or invade their personal space, i always keep my distance but strangely enough if someone does it to me, i could care less

If it's an accident then I might be a bit taken aback for a second but then I'd brush it off.

 

I do distinctly remember one time on the train a man leaning back on me as if I was a wall or a handrail. I spun round and elbowed him. The look on his face was priceless.

I always manage to avoid it 

 

[Illuminati]

If they're hot no

[Devin]

since COVID i hate when ppl randomly touch me.

[burninredhot]

I don't care tbh but if I realise that they're doing it on purpose I get kinda mad

[Invisibility]

No! What I mean is I'm okay if it happens casual conversation, and if it's like in public transport or something I'll likely brush it off as an accident so 

[Revolution]

If someone is touching you and it’s not an accident, a friendly gesture or consensual flirting, call the police.

[gagacasanova]

I give them the death stare everytime

[AxelFox]

Yes omg  but to be honest I'm like that in general even with family and friends

 

I'm super touchy with the guy I like on the other hand though

[Dolce Vita]

yes because i’ve had a lot of instances 

where someone has brushed up against me on public transport or at theme parks etc and they didn’t have to do that

[BloodLuster]

a lot tbh. leave me alone, b*tch !

I accidentally touched someone's foot on the London Underground the other day and said sorry but they kicked me back.... I mean he was lowkey a ***** since he was running and dragging his gf by the hand along the escalator and breaking through everyone

I hate it

[DawnAnti]

Yes I HATE IT like don’t even come close to me or enter my personal space 

[GentleEarthquake]

I got used to it after using my city's train so many times

[The Man Who]

I’m not a touchy / feely person and there’s only a few people in my family I’ll hug, I don’t even like shaking peoples hands but I’ll obviously do that if it feels necessary. 
 

I think a lot of it with me stems from something that happened in my childhood which I won’t get into. 

[ontherocks]

Not if they are hot 

[Sabrina Carpenter]

yes, especially unsuspectedly. i physically cringe. 

[alexrex]

Yes I do...

Spoiler

Unless I'm ho**y and I like the random stranger 

 

[Badgalbriel]

Depends on how hot they are 

[Raptus]

I even hate when I go outside and there's other people there

[Bussea]

If it’s an accident, I don’t mind but I hate when strangers purposely touch me or people get WAY TOO close to me when they’re speaking to me. working in customer service made me realize how much I hated it

[popmusicisdead]

if i hated random people touching me i would be unemployed

[SleepNoMore]

I only get mad if it’s an intentional passive aggressive touch to obtain more of the arm rest or more of a shared bench.
