    Dear secrettattoo:
    I need more information so to form a response that will have any quality in my own mind. You said that you asked your mother. Can you tell me more of what she said, and can you tell me more about your relationship with her from your earliest memories- relationship with your father/ other caretaker, if he was there, from your earliest memories? What are your earliest memories in regard to affection?

    Hi secrettattoo,

    Actually, I think with some guys, they’d be relieved! My college boyfriend never liked PDA and my DH won’t hold hands in public. I’m more like you, actually, but when I am affectionate, it is sincere and can be overpowering. I think when you really love someone it shows through in your energy, being and aura. When people are all “needy” it means they are not “feeling it” from you.

    Don’t change your nature, but maybe have a ritual going forward: A hug when you leave and a kiss when you return. Holding their hand tight during meal times for a moment and then letting go. Saying “I love you” when you wake up and when you fall asleep.

    Best,

    Inky
