Navigating Physical Connections in Early Dating
Developing physical connections while dating can be challenging, especially for those who feel shut off or lack experience. Acknowledging that physical touch is a natural human need, it is suggested that individuals should start by connecting with their own bodies, recognizing their feelings, and caring for themselves as a living entity. To ease into physicality, gradual steps such as brief, intentional touches can help foster comfort and intimacy over time. Additionally, practice with friends and family can provide a safe space to explore non-sexual affection, reinforcing the importance of being comfortable in one’s own skin before extending that comfort to others.
