Physical contact makes me awkward

not sure it’s a symptom so I am putting it here… yesterday he said he wants to try hugging me… and now I feel awkward… not only that but I am kinda fat and he is not so to be honest I do feel more awkward…that he might somehow realise I am fat…as if he can’t see already…

He feels awkward around people anyway and when I told him I will feel awkward he said we can feel awkward together… this is awkward…!

What an akward post. I felt more awkward writing it… Awkward… I am not sure I am confortable or see him that way yet… or like him like that… but I really like talking to him…

I know how you feel I am trying to lose weight myself. But he obviously likes you so just go with the flow. Sometimes we are too critical to ourselves.

I am overweight and I am ok with it but not so sure I am with him being not overweight if that makes sense… sigh… i really love talking to him though… the messages just light up my day… and there is something about him talking when he says he is usually shy that really makes me happy he is able to feel free enough to talk…

touch. poke. prod.
You have such smooth skin.

Foundation helps to cover blemishes.

Be nice to yourself. You just have smooth skin.

It doesn’t sound like your friend has any problem with your appearance. I doubt he would have any problem hugging you.

I’m still in the process of losing weight myself.

Regardless of what a scale says you are a very nice looking young woman.

I hope someday you will get a hug and the only thing you think about is how good the other person feels. I remember before I met my husband all the insecurities, all the nonstop conversation and commentary in my head about myself but with my husband it’s different, I think of him. Ish, you’re going to find your other half and all the nonsense just goes away and you will feel so loved and warm inside. Even now that I’ve gained all this weight I still feel loved by my husband even if I’m having trouble loving myself right now. My husband just keeps correcting me every time I say something negative about myself and tries to remind me not to be hateful about my weight. Just try to give this gentleman a chance to get to know the real you, if you have the nerve to let the real you show and see if he has the guts to show you the real him. Hopefully the awkwardness will wear off on the second hug if you give it a chance for there to be a second hug.

The awkward leading the awkward…

That’s a saying, right?

Sounds like he has a good humor, which is freaking paramount!

And he wants to squeeze your cute body, clearly, he thinks you’re attractive.

Don’t project your insecurities on him,

He doesn’t think you’re fat, and you shouldn’t either.

The only person I feel comfortable having physical contact with is my brother. It sounds weird but I trust him and know that he would never intentionally hurt me.
I feel like our minds are connected in some way. We are different though only by name.

Well it’s too late. I told him I find them difficult and I blush but he said now he wants to hug me even more :confused:

That’s a sweet thing for him to say. That’s worth an HJ right?

That sounded hugely inappropriate :joy:

LOL if it’s an abbreviation for what I’m fairly sure it is I would say so.

It sounds like your more worried about your weight than feeling uncomfortable because of a hug.

If he didnt like what he saw, he wouldnt be trying to hug you.
