To ask the OP a question.. Relationships require affirmation of some sort. If you dislike physically touching your SO, how do you affirm your connection with her?? IMO, I think that's a pretty selfish mentality, to only show physical affection when you require it. I'm not huge on the touchy/cuddly effects, but I will do it and not feel totally obligated about it if that's what my SO requires.

I'm quite touchy feely with my girlfriend, of course. I like to grab her and shake her/squeeze her a bit and then kiss her, ahah, although I think she has mixed feelings about the shaking/squeezing part, lol. I would dislike a relationship without the touch component. I'm not touchy feely in general tho, like with friends (either guys or girls), sometimes I don't know what's the appropriate level of touchy-feely required.

I am very affectionate physically and verbally. I don't do crazy PDA's, but I kiss, hug, squeeze, hold hands, etc.

Agreed. There's only so long I can go without having intimacy or connection returned.

I do it, but it's not something that I like to do unless I'm feeling the mood to do so. I can do it out of obligation, but it doesn't mean I necessarily want to do it.
