Fear of intimacy
7 Cups Online Therapy / by kindNorth4033

...See more 25 and a virgin. I come from a strict family where one past relationship in my teens (18) made my parents react so emotionally that my perspective on ever being physically close to a guy was alter for the next 6 years. A touch on the shoulder or being too close to a guy felt like I was doing something wrong. Now all of a sudden my parents want to see me with a guy? However I’m feeling this immense pressure where for everyone in my age, kissing, being intimate is such a norm, however for me it’s a milestone. This pressure of performance with no experience is draining the life out of me. Any tips on how on to ease into being intimate with your partner?
