tree, I want to just accept it but it's hard for me. It's something so foreign to me because I don't come from a family of "touchers". It doesn't seem normal to want to hold her hand. I can't believe I asked her to touch me twice today: once for a hug at the end, and when we walked out together when I asked to hold hands. It's new behavior for me. I sort of like that I can ask her to do those things, and she does it without questioning me. She doesn't ask me why I want it; she just does it!
