Oh I have a hard time with contact too. I can give children hugs and affection easily, but not fellow adults. I can give a hug upon seeing someone I haven't seen in ages, or saying goodbye when I won't see them often. Even when others initiate a hug, I'm always sorta held back.
Another success story:
- the first time I went to a movie theatre by myself! This took almost 10 years of actively trying to convince myself to do it before I finally did. I went and watched Alice in Wonderland in Cardiff, because I was out for a walk and it started raining. Yep. It took heavy rain to finally get me to go in and watch a film on my own!
