When desire and touch aversion create impossible conflicts

I'm attracted to people but the idea of anyone touching my body makes me panic and I don't understand how to want someone I can't bear to be close to.

The heart and body can want opposite things when trauma splits attraction from capacity for contact.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with Physical touch and its necessity?”
