"Physical touch is one of my primary love languages. For those of us who share this love language, touching is an endearing gesture of affection, appreciation, and connection.

However, there are many people who do NOT like to be touched-men or women. In spite of our good intentions, touching can make others feel awkward, offended, and in the worst-case scenario, violated. It is crucial to be vigilant and socially aware enough that you can read people's cues to know when to pull back and contain yourself."

There are people who love you and care about you.Give your smiles to them, Reciprocate!"

Be at peace with your decisions."
