Touchy Person Syndrome

I can't stand people who are too touchy... GET OFF.

Touchy people are not people I want to be friends with. If you don't know what kind of person I am talking about, their personality goes a little like this:

- Talking too close

OK. Honestly, enough. You know the kind of people I am talking about. They stand oddly close to you and strike up a casual conversation. They stand so close that you might as well assume that they are going to try and kiss you at some point in the conversation. Aside from that, people who do this undoubtedly have a strange tinge to their breath. So, as they are talking incredibly close to you, you are also suffocated by the breath of a dragon.


- Constantly having a body part touching someone else

Do these people have attachment issues, or? There is simply no need to constantly be touching someone. It's like THAT couple, the ones who are constantly all up in each others business in public. That is a hard no... Keep your hands to yourself, no one wants your grimy hands on them.


- When you're upset, this person clings to you

I am already upset, what upsets me more is the fact that these kind of people do not get off. It might just be my personality, but I am not the type to be hugged, kissed, or rubbed when upset. All I would want in this situation is for that person to get the hint and just take a few steps back. There is no need to have someone hung around your neck. It might be nice to have a friendly face supporting you, but just get off.


- This person probably has no problem eating/drinking from other people's things

This touchy individual most likely has no problem eating a sandwich with a bite already taken out of it. It's not like this person rotates the sandwich to the spot that was untouched either, they go right for the already eaten piece. We get it, you're comfortable sharing things. However, this trait definitely puts you in the running for a touchy person.

I hope whoever is reading this now has a clear picture as to what a touchy person is, how they act, and who they are. Now that you do have a clear image, immediately unfriend or loose contact with that person. Run while you can.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
