as fuck, and I can't stand it, especially if it's cooking, and then touch is also awful. I know that

being touched is a huge part of romantic relationships, and I don't know how to explain to someone

that sometimes I just can't handle any form of touch, and it don't know how to explain to someone that sometimes I just

can't handle any form of touch and it will make me snappy versus me saying no to intimacy and how that's a

super different thing. How do I bring this up? Is it a first date topic? Okay. I feel this. I'm also in

my era of getting out all of these books on like neurodiversity and
