I realized this last night but I think I may be addicted to affection. Let me know if any of you agree that this could be the signs of an actual need or if anyone has felt anything similar:
My best friend for around 7 years and I hung out last night (the girl I have a picutre of in my gallery). We hadn't talked for a while so it was great to see her again. Well it didn't take long until we were acting just as close as we always do. It amuses me really that guys won't make a move on her because it really does look like we're newlyweds sans the kisses. Anyway, whenever we're together we're CONSTANTLY touching. Either hugs, petting each others heads, walking arm in arm or just holding one another.
I've also noticed that sometimes I'll just be sitting minding my own business and all of a sudden begin to crave affection. I'll feel cold or alone and just want someone to hold onto. Does it make sense that since we were inseperable all during high school and the first year of college (5 years of ALWAYS being together) that I got so used to it that I don't feel right without it? Could it really be an addiction of sorts?
Just curious as to what you all feel about the matter.
