So I'm very untouchy in some ways. Like with girls my age I get nervous hugging or whatever. Like when my dad owned a restaurant I liked most of the women tht worked there (about 3 of them were 18-24) and I would hug them with no problem at all. But at school I know a few girls have tried to hug me, like they didn't actually hug me but I know that they would. Why is it that I could hug all the women at my dads restaurant but when it comes to girls my age I get nervous? I'm 17, but 16 at the time of the restaurant. How can I get a girlfriend when I feel uncomfortable touching anyone? It's not just girls, like a few guys at my school think I'm gay, so they try to trick me into doing gay things. Like this one guy put his hand on my shoulder on a sexual way and I immediately stepped away from him an "he said to much?". Like I imagine what I'd do with my girlfriend, and the things I imagine are things that would take a lot of touching (no not sex). Even when we have parties, I'm ok hugging people a hello and goodbye or whatever, but when it comes with people my age I don't wanna be touched at all.

Have you ever considered... you're just into older girls?
I honestly can't stand dating women my own age, because in my high school a majority of girls are sluts who think getting drunk at parties is a fun pass-time.
I've always been flirting with older girls, when I was 11 I even had a 14 year old girlfriend haha. Don't feel nervous man, be confident in yourself and no matter what you can make a good impression on the girl.

You don't need to care of the boys?
You don't need to be touchy person, you can try and learn some flirty moves !!
Also a loveable person? :3

I positively hate been touched I don't initiate hugs, I feel uncomfortable when people get too close and flinch when they brush past me. But that's never affected my friendships or relationships, if I thunk about guys or girls in general touching me I feel uncomfortable at the thought, however when its someone I like and want to be with i'm okay with it. So yeah what i'm trying to say is you might just not be an affectionate person, but when you find someone you do like it'll be different.
I'm aware I haven't really accounted for why you don't mind older people hugging you but its just a thought.
