please help! is it normal too……?
I dont know why but i just shove away the people that tries to touch me, simple things like poke, hug, putting arms around each other, hooking arms, etc. I just feel really uncomfortable when people touches me, i can get claustrophobic at some-time in my life, but i think this is different considering its a physical contact. I just wanted to know is it weird, and am i the only one?¿?

You do to! Oh my god, I swear I thought I was the only one! Yes! I am not alone! I am pretty sure this is called Haphephobia, and you could have a light case of it, it is better known as the fear of being touched. To prevent myself from being touched at school, I wear large bulky sweaters, and I tend to cringe from people when they do bump into me. My friends have been really respectful however, and give me my personal space. Try sweaters or long sleeved thick coats, worked wonders for me!
dam girl you crazy, its perfectly fine im like that to. when my mates at school come and hug me or do a soft punch im like back the hell off. but i am becoming to grow out of it and so will you. dont worry your fine.
you can have autism or haphephobia. Whatever not my business
