How would you take it if a man you were with gently caressed your face?

I still don't know what Jette wanted help with! Neither, it seems, does anyone else know.

She asked what we would think if a man gently touched a cheek - she got plenty of answers, mostly of the reasonable "it depends who, when, where and why" type. If that isn't enough, sorry, but she will have to ask a different question.

Enigmatic? Scant? Confusing? Cryptic? All of these could be used to describe this OP. But to be accused of being unkind because we can't answer the OP's question just takes the biscuit!

I wanted to keep his identity out of it.But this is more like gossip than real help

Are you mocking me?

Jette
1) nobody asked to to reveal the man’s identity
2) you asked for an opinion, not help
3) you gave so little information it was impossible to know what the problem was
4) you launch an attack on kind people who are giving up their time to try to be sympathetic
5) then you accuse them of mocking you

Come off it, nobody is gossiping, you started this and if you have decided this is not an adequate response, I am sorry, but so be it.

No-one is mocking you, but everyone thinks that you have asked a question that is impossible to answer. It is like asking "Should I buy this dress?" without describing it - it could be any dress, in any colour, any size, any style.

You have told us nothing anything about this man, how long you have known him, your previous relationship with him, your age and his, whether he has any authority over you (teacher? neighbour? stepfather? doctor?) or whether you are both young teenagers or old codgers in a care home. His identity is perfectly safe! So is yours.

You could be a worried child who has been sexually abused - in which case you should be contacting childline (0800 1111)

You could be a young adult who has met someone your own age who fancies you - in which case, we wish you well but remind you to Be Careful.

You could be setting us a puzzle to tease - if that is so, I would vote for him being a doctor or dentist who is checking on your teeth or your neck glands.

You could just be someone winding us up to see what replies you get - in which case, you have your replies, now get lost!

I posted "Really??" upthread because I honestly thought it was a wind up /spoof. So little information makes it impossible to make any positive response and makes it look spurious.
