Kissing and stroking however ... I don't really enjoy.
Another thing that is pretty much me. I just don't get kissing... is there even a point?
Me either, what is the big deal about lips touching? Why is it not noses, or chins, or foreheads? Even if it were noses, foreheads or whatever, there would still be no point. It's about how you treat a person that says the most IMHO.

I guess it's because lips are specially sensitive parts of the human body, unlike noses or foreheads, so people are supposed to feel pleasure when touching lips with another person they want to touch lips with. I know I'd enjoy kissing somebody I love, like a boyfriend or something, but I'm not so sure about sharing saliva, but I'll have to wait and see.
In my house, my parents
did touch foreheads with us to show us affection when we were babies "tope tope tope topeeeee...".
I like hugs in theory, but when I'm given a hug, I stiffen and stand still, because I don't know what to do. The very few times I've given a hug (because they say "hug your sister..." or "hug me..."), people have told me I don't know how to hug. I enjoy rib-breaker hugs too, but only from my very close family and sometimes from my male friends, and I guess when I have a boyfriend, I'll enjoy being hugged by him, too. I just hope he likes a ragdoll, because that's basically what I am when it comes to showing or receiving affection.
