I just saw this vine on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL-AFIC6Wl0 After watching it, it made me realize how many friends I have that are like this. They just feel the need to touch you whenever you are talking to them, and honestly, I find it quite annoying. I am always thinking: "What do you need to touch me for?", "Get out of my space!",etc. I used to tolerate it, but it got annoying very quick. So, do you guys have friends that are like this, and can you tolerate it? I would love to hear some experiences as well. |
| If it bothers you why don't you just tell them to stop and make it clear you're serious? Why are you people so fucking beta all the time? |

I actually do tell them to stop, but they persist to keep on doing it. And I would have you know, I am far from being a beta. I am an alpha male, you would never see me bitching out of something. |

You're bitching out of making them stop, TheBeta. |

| I know that type of person, but none of my close friends falls udner that category. Well, being drunk may change the equation. I'm not very fond of it and people will notice so it usually only happens with people I don't know that well or have just met, friends of friends and stuff like that. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I punch people like that in the face. But I hug a lot. |

TallonKarrde23 said: You're bitching out of making them stop, TheBeta. As I have stated before, I actually do try to make them stop. The only problem is that they keep doing it. I do not think it is bitching out if you try to stop something, but it keeps happening over and over, at some point, you just get tired of it. That is completely different from just being silent about it and just trying to tolerate it, or trying to get one of your friends to stop it, which is what "TheBeta" would do. |
| I'm okay with it, since a lot of people get "touchy-feely" unconsciously. I don't find it particularly annoying though. But I do have one friend that persists on grabbing my neck all the time. Hence I feel like I've been choked to death five times a day. |

You're letting it continue, if they keep doing it then stop being around them or be forceful. |

| I used to question touchy-feely friends. They were usually of the opposite gender. When I had to ask, it turns out touchy-feely friends (in my case) like you. But when it came to guys, those guys were just trying to be "buddy-buddy" with you. It's a rare case. |
| Just need to find out how to quote this every time so I can dodge the stupid 30-character limit. |

Yep, with the opposite gender a lot of body contact usually means they're interested in you - consciously or subconsciously. At least that's my experience too. |

| I had a friend who touched pretty often ( same things what were in that vine) and if I said that he should stop, he thought I was "joking" and did it more. |

| I'm kinda touchy-feely. But where I live it's normal to be that way. idk. I'm more affectionate w/ some friends than I am with others. I know who doesn't like physical contact so I avoid it with them. If you told your friends to stop and they didn't, you probably need to do it while looking way more upset. |

| I rather like "touchy-feely" people (assuming I like them as a person). Maybe it's because I grew up with 4 brothers, and being "touchy-feely" was routine every day life. It creates a sense that they're comfortable with you. |
 |
| I never had this issue, so I don't know what to say. However in specific scenario I don't want my friend to touch me when they drunk, because they could be shooting rainbows from their mouth anytime. |
| The most important things in life is the people that you care about |
| I usually tell people to get the fuck off if I have problems with what their doing. But touchy-feely friends aren't an actual problem for me. Unless they exaggerate. |

| I know quite a lot of people like that.. I've never had a girl do it to me though (well, not a sober girl). If it's bugging me I'm just like 'dude, back off, your bursting my bubble here'. |
| I have a couple of friends who are like that. But I don't really care. It's fine with me. But if it's a family member who goes touchy feely...I get annoyed easily. Don't know why. Probably because I think it's awkward. |
今日の朝食はどうだった？ 超ショック！！ |
| Huh. Never hand one before. Although I will say the first time I got hugged (either by a guy or girl) scared the shit out of me. I was not prepared for it. |
| It used to bother me, now I don't care. |
| Railroad switch |
| I like my personal space and people like that usually can't respect it. |
| Depends on the degree. It is a sign of trust and whatnot, so I dig that. But I don't really want to be groped by people so you know. |
 |
| The touchy feely guy, yeah, that's me with everyone. |
  |
| i dont mind |
| Most of my friends are like that, but never towards to me. I guess I have that attitude that I don't want to be touched. |
| As long has it hurts, I don't really mind what they do to me. |
| I require my personal space >_> |
 |
| i don't have friends who do this, luckily. i already get uncomfortable when people come too close to me.. |

Alpha - You tell them not to do it. If they keep doing it, you beat the shit out of them Beta - you tell them not to do it. If they keep doing it, stfu and "not bitch about it" because you think you are an alpha. |

| Most people I'm friends with irl no better than to just touch me out of the blue like that. |
| I have this thing where if people sit too close to me or touch me unexpectedly it makes me really uncomfortable. Of course I make it clear that I don't like it and that I need my space but it still slips every once in a while. My friends also used to have this habit of picking me up since I've always been on the smaller side so I wonder if that's part of the reason why I've come to hate it. I don't even like hugs which is sucks because even when I feel like I need a hug I don't want to go ask for one because they make me uncomfortable >___< |

| If he's a friend I know for so long, I don't give a fck. But if he's someone who's just feeling that we're close friends then go fcking die.. |

| I can be touchy-feely with people who I know are okay with it, and when I'm drunk I'm touchy feely with all my friends, they say they don't like it but I know they love it really. |
| I havent had a friend like that in a long time, and even then i didnt give a shit, but hypothetically if i was annoyed by that, even after asking them to stop they would keep going, then id just punch them out if they tried to do it again, granted my group of friends are the ones that'd be able to take that so it really doesnt apply to you if your friends are ones to get pissy over a punch |
