It's ironic -- I hate being touched, but I long for cuddles. It's mostly not about sex, it's more what Sigismund said -- it feels as though touching me is about controlling me. But I long so much to be held, and snuggled, and cuddled. My psychoterrorist and I talk about this, and she thinks that it's about my history, which makes sense...
She thinks that my snuggle-urge comes from having had cats to snuggle with all my life, that my nurturing side was developed by having cats to nurture, that without the cats, I'd be more consistent: not liking touch, and not having the nurture-urge.
Not that that urge does me any good now, and I'm gonna go so I can stop crying.
