Long story short, I am apparently THE guy for people to put their hands on. I don’t understand why. But since I was a child people have felt the right to touch me inappropriately.

My wife has now put her hands on me for at least the third time. Spitting on one occasion. I grabbed her by the shoulders, pressed her to the wall, and put my volume on max. Take a guess how this has been received.

There’s more to it. I am not blameless. But never once have I been the one to introduce physical contact in our relationship.

I want to fully commit. I want to be known as the person who does not touch and will not be touched. I would love to live the next few decades never having a single brush of shoulders with another person.

The only reservation I have is that I love to hug, snuggle, wrestle, and kiss my 18 month boy. We have another boy 8 weeks in the womb.
