Don't touch me.

10 Things You Know To Be True If You Hate Physical Contact

I do not like physical contact — never have, never will. If you're anything like me, the thought of long hugs or simply lightly brushing arms with a stranger makes you cringe.

1. You never give hugs for more than three seconds. Anything longer than that give you the heebie jeebies.

2. When you brush legs with someone sitting next to you, even if it is someone you know, you get super uncomfortable and try to move your body as far as you can away from that person as possible.

3. When someone puts their hand on your back when they are passing you or are trying to direct you somewhere, you internally freak out.

4. When you get married or live with a significant other, you will have to get a king sized bed simply because you hate having someone touch you or breathe on you while you sleep.

5. You like cuddling for like 15 minutes and after that it's time to move on.

6. You get anxiety in crowed public transportation.

7. Family gatherings are the worst because that means obnoxious amounts of hugging.

8. When someone is so close to you that you hear them breathing, that's too close.

9. The only person you allow to touch you for more than three seconds is your significant other.

10. When someone whispers directly into your ear and you feel their warm, moist breath entering your ear cavity, you wonder how you made it this far on Earth.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
