Hello again.

As I have said before, I have never suggested that she not demonstrate affection to her family (especially her dad, mom, and sisters); I am speaking more about the males (that are not in her family, but are close friends). I do value that she has such a giving heart; she is a terrific person.

There is nothing wrong with showing affection with close friends and such; all I am really questioning is the kind of affection (which does seem a bit much to me) that she does show to those males. From my end, I do show affection towards those that I am close with, but I always respect the comfort and rights that my fiancee has, and never engage in prolonged touching or things like that.

Just last week, one of her coworkers (male) was having a farewell party, for his contract had expired (and was never extended). All of his coworkers (females only, including my fiancee) were present, and I am sure it was quite the difficult time for all. I also know how such a party tends to end (and I know just how close my fiancee was to him); I got really anxious, for I knew that when it was her turn to give him the hug, it was going to be quite the endorphine stimulator (she is such a soft, demonstrative hugger). Can you see why I might be feeling a bit awkward?

Maybe a blessing, or not, but we are 4000 miles apart, she and I; seeing that interaction would have been hard for me to stomach, even in this circumstance. Yes, you have a point, that this is more about me than anything else; my thing is, again, I do not have a problem with her being affectionate, but how she is doing it.
