Maybe you have been touched inappropriately before. Maybe someone hurt you. Memories can haunt us, but one day someone will come into your life and they will set your fear free and you'll love to be touched and held by them

Memories.They come flooding in.Whenever a man touches you, even if it is as a friend, you expect the worse because either you have seen the result or experienced it, Sometimes, it's just reflex because you feel trouble is nearby

Let me ask you another question ? What do you honestly think of men ? Most of the time we, women, have learned to be very cautious around them because of our education.

It depends on what has happened in your life to condition your mind to associate men with pain or fear. Once the reason is found, the reaction may be able to be over come and for you to not be controlled by negative influences.

It could be because of something you went through in the past, it may trigger a memory of something traumatic. In this case you should seek professional assistance to overcome what trauma may be affecting you so it doesn't interfere with having a positive relationship with a man in your life.

Flinching is a natural thing that your body does. But it also depends on if you have been abused or not in your past.

You flench every time a man tries to touch you because you may have had a traumatic experience with being raped, or someone close to you had the traumatic experience.
