I Love Pedicures

I am never more relaxed than when I am at the spa. Massage facial and reflexology and pedicure. I feel like a queen.

Lucky you. I wish I could enjoy things like that, but I hate being touched, and I hate my feet being touched most of all.

@Serenitree I’m sorry... it’s such a wonderful feeling to me

@modestmary I'm glad for you. I just seem to have developed an aversion to being touched over the last 30 years, but I've always hated my feet being touched because they are super sensitive.

@Serenitree I understand, but even a massage can be enjoyable. Maybe just that without your feet being touched might work

@modestmary no. Not for me. I cringe if anyone even touches my arm while speaking to me. Having someone put their hands on my and start rubbing, it's not merely distasteful to me, I'm positively phobic.

I’m so sorry that must be difficult @Serenitree

@modestmary it is, sometimes. When someone reaches to shake hands, and my hands dart behind my back, it can be awkward. Hugs from anyone who isn't one of my kids, gives me panic attack like you wouldn't believe. Nobody should hug someone from behind without warning, especially mere acquaintances.

I agree with you @Serenitree
