K, I am what you would call a "don't touch me" girl
I can't stand when my exbf droped one of those "subtle" hints that he wants to hold hands or anything. So I broke up with him.(wayyyy, too physical)
So now I am with a new guy. He is sweet, smart, just everything you want in a guy. He isn't all mushy or anything. only prob is that people keep telling him "you guys don't Look like you like each other or are going out." he is probably starting to wonder if i want to or anything. I don't. I don't want that to end a relationship though, because that is what i like in him- he doesn't do all of that stuff. if we just run together, or go play instruments together, it is fine with me. I don't want him to turn into my ex.
Plus, I think he is embarassed, because people tease him that he is going out with a girl like me (wears hoodies, and is quite a social clown) he is more serouis or is the "funny" guys side kick.
anyone have some friendly advice about what to do?

How is holding hands way to physical?
I was afraid to hold my exboyfriends hands because I was nervous to just do it.
Thats a silly reason to dump someone.
Are you sure that you're ready for a boyfriend?

Personally, you sound rather picky. Kind of like my 2year old nephew. Demanding in own way. Well, Ignore the other people. And your boyfriend sounds like me, sort of. So, ignore people. As long as you two are both happy, that should be fine. Maybe you two should take it step by step, and you try and be a little more physical. Not holding hands, hugging, all that. But not as, tender to it.
