I suspect all of your future relationships will be short ones.

What I mean is that I would need some Listerine or tooth paste afterwards, but not RIGHT THERE, as in a few minutes later and, hopefully, when she isn't looking...

OP, I can recommend good psychologists if you want

Seriously, are you planning to live life in a plastic bubble?

I don't like being touched--at all. After spending some time with a person, and establishing a relationship with her, it can be lessened, but it's always there in the background. Especially if I'm NOT having a good day.

I can understand not liking being touched by strangers. But by friends and family? That's something you should talk to a specialist about. A normally developed human being is supposed to like contact. Maybe you weren't held and rocked enough as a kid.

An aversion to touch develops pretty commonly in children who grew up without a caregiver or without normal contact.

I don't mind touching and holding hands with my mate or someone I don't mind touching or holding hands with.

I don't however, like being touched by strangers when I'm at clubs and bars and places of that nature. I have had to tell off some many guys for grabbing my arm, wanting me to come talk to them. I don't play that right there...
Girl I hate that - I hate when they put their hand on the back of your neck too. One of the main reasons I stopped clubbing was because I got tired of random dudes touching me (and getting tossed out after throwing my drink on random dudes for touching me)

You might have OCD.

Honestly, though, my husband had a rotten wisdom tooth (and no dental insurance) for years, and we sort of got out of the habit of open-mouthed kissing because of it. Both because he was so self-conscious about it, and because I frankly didn't want to smell his tooth decay.
Now that the thing's been removed and all his other cavities filled, we still don't kiss like that too much. Like I said, we just got out of the habit.
There are other ways to show affection besides swigging gallons of another person's saliva.
