Thank you for this series! I've had a hard time recently figuring out this need I've been feeling for touch, but not sure what to do with it. Now I have the right words to describe what I've been feeling: I've been feeling skin hunger, but it's hard to do anything about because I am also touch averse. Yes, I can and will give my friends hugs when I see them, but when I need some touch, I feel awkward asking for it, and I do my utmost to avoid touching strangers and acquaintances.
On the other hand, I'm very comfortable with professional massages. At least I have that (expensive) way to try and counteract my skin hunger.
