Have you heard of the bristle reaction? It's when you recoil from your partner's touch. They could just be coming in for a hug or trying to give you a little caress on the back, but you feel your whole body just tense up in resistance. The reason you're feeling this way just might have something to do with the way your partner initiates. Most of us are pretty embarrassed about initiating sex, so we try to do it in these kind of roundabout ways like trying to make a hug last for a little bit longer or slip a little bit of tongue into a kiss, hoping that it will lead to more. But if your partner only ever initiates sex this way, it puts you on guard and makes you you feel like every time they touch you or try to kiss you, they have a motive. Like they're always trying to push it into sex. Let me know down in the comments if you just found out about the bristle reaction for the first time and follow for part two. How to fix this.
