[quote=Anonymous]One of my kids is a little like this. He tolerates hugs but would rather avoid them. He’ll answer back “I love you” but isn’t spontaneous about it at all. He is empathetic - especially towards animals and he does LOvE our dog m but is just kind of standoffish with humans. His best friend is the total opposite and it’s been funny watching them grow up together. Best friend will throw an affectionate arm over his shoulder and he visibly shudders and stiffens up. I’m not too worried about him. He’s kind and thoughtful and has friends and strong relationships - he just isn’t outwardly affectionate. His dad is kind of similar, though does like touch, and come to think of it, I know others perceive me as a little ‘cold’ too.[/quote]
