Girls

Alright, this topic is just awful. Death, you just don't seem to get it. Every relationship you could possibly get into will inevitably fail because of your "need" to touch. That isn't what friendships/relationships are about.

It's even worse that you've got people here giving you terrible advice on how to get what you want. Mostly because you shouldn't be getting what you want because it's not what you need and it's just going to fuel an unhealthy mentality that relationships need to be physical, and that you need to be touched to be loved. You don't. But even more, you shouldn't be dating because you're clearly not stable. Why do any of you think it's okay to coach him on making someone else miserable? Nothing he has said here is healthy and some of you seem to be completely disregarding it as if it's nothing. It's not nothing. These are the sort of thoughts that grow people into psychopaths and rapists. I've been trying to be nice but it's infuriating that not only does he not get it, but no one else seems to either.

You say you're getting help but clearly you're not addressing what's important here, or if you are it's not sinking in, which judging by your responses I would say is pretty likely. If you want to touch someone, get healthy first, because you're not entitled to it. It's something you need to earn, and you can only earn it by being objective. Obsessing isn't objective. Get help and take it seriously before you degrade any further.
