Point taken Hamster. I've a tendency to beat around the bush a bit, and I can see where your point arises from. I only thought it redundant to inform OP of how she knows she feels already, and I stand by my point had the actions in question only been "uncomfortable" rather than "hated." Being hated, which is well beyond uncomfortable, I do stand by my point still, but I see your point. In no way did I intend to trivialize the OP's problem, and I apologize if I have done so.
I appreciate the insight and advice though.
