Does having Saturn in the 8th makes one have intimacy issues?? Sometimes I feel weird and bad because all my friends would be hugging or shaking hands while I'll just wave awkwardly or just be standing there with a smile. Sometimes I wish I can just hug them cuz it's just a hug. It simple. But Idk why I just can't bring myself to do that to my friends or even family. Being affectionate is so hard and awkward to me😭😭
Hey it’s ok ❤️💕💗 I think it’s important to talk about boundaries as well? Love language is different, and you don’t have to feel obligated to hug or touch personally to just about anyone. Everyone has different preference or tolerance and you know this. Don’t bring it down on yourself for what others may perceive as the norm for them or what their standard is, you have yours.
It’s one thing to just not prefer it, that’s completely fine. You know yourself best and thats what good for you. It is another thing if there’s an underlying reason if you think you’d be much happier (for yourself) if you prefer to be touched or want to touch others. You can - always - give it a go, and if you find that ‘yeah no i’m perfectly happy not getting physical’ then that’s the end of it ! it’s fine! know your boundaries! ❤️💕💗
A hug is still an act of intimacy, one you don’t have to give to just about anyone or share if you don’t want to. Don’t let anyone (or yourself) pressure you into it. Especially since you know yourself best, set your boundaries. That comes with knowing your boundaries as well, and what you want for yourself too.
I think... if it’s bothering you, talking about this with someone and just communicating with them/letting out your thoughts help. If it helps if you think that this doesn’t-- require action from others, or if you feel guilty or something, let them know that they don’t have to accommodate you, just let them know you don’t want that and it’s just you letting some thoughts out.
I think talking as a form of self-expression helps a lot with this, if you feel like physical touch is a form of self-expression for someone else, talking about it and what you think, how you think, may be helpful as well. Just to reaffirm that you have your own form of self-expression too and that it doesn’t all (all self-expression) doesn’t have to be physical. I think its also much better to understand yourself as you say it aloud as well, learning about you as you go, so yeah ❤️💕💗 I hope this helps ❤️💕💗
