I have gone through this thread a few times now before answering. I have had issues with touch, going from where no touch felt safe, to where I am now. Now safe touch for me is. . .
- Only when I want it.
- Comforting.
-Only people I know really well and trust.
- Never from behind
-Never in a way that I don't have an escape route.
-Not sexual.
-Warm.

But this is all subject to change from moment to moment. And it always has to be on my terms. Sometimes I want to be comforted (by a hug), while at the same time don't want to be touched.

I always wonder if I will ever be able to be in a romantic relationship. If I will ever be able to trust someone enough, if they wont be turned off or wont be willing to wait for me to be comfortable.
