overwhelmed

being in public is overwhelming.... it has alot to do with the fact that I 'know' alot of ppl, but in reality i don't know these ppl all that well, and they don't know me all that well. really, they are just acquaintances. The problem is they think they know me well enough to be my friend. they think they know me well enough to come up and hug me. when in reality, i only liked to be touch by safe ppl; ppl I trust with my life. There aren't many ppl like that in my life right now. all the hugging and touching makes me tense. I don't like it. I need to be seen and known before you start touching me. That takes more than just seeing me around. it takes alot more.
