am I the only person who cringes if someone goes to pick/brush something off their face/shoulder/wheverever?

Do you ever have that thing where someone goes, "hang on, you've got an eyelash" and then LEANS in to your face and wipes whatever it was away?

Am I the only loon who cannot stand this? It makes me cringe and die inside a little bit...even just "oh, there's something on your face, no, not there - there" while you stand there like an idiot trying to wipe away a small grey smudge.

Please no.

Just me?

Just you I'm afraid. Depends who it is-friend, family or colleague=fine. Random stranger in a shop=a bit weird.

yep just me

Oh dear. I have been known to pick unsightly threads/fluff off strangers' coats in the queue in shops. So you'd hate me.

Someone needs to relax a little!

No, I'm totally with you on this! I HATE unwarranted grooming.

off coats and stuff is fine, but I can't stand people touching my face with their grubby hands LOL who knows where they've been ? bleh

My DP hates it off anybody (or maybe it's my less than delicate touch ), and I'm not keen on anyone fiddling with me outside of very close family/friends. We're very affectionate with hugs and kisses - just not into random grooming or over affectionate with most people.

Tactile defensive I think it's called - just how some people are.

I hate it too! Bit of thread on my coat = fine, wiping something off my face = death stare.

I put it down to my spitting on tissues and scrubbing away at me when I was little.

I hate being touched by anyone so I feel your pain! If someone random it's even worse. If a stranger picked a thread off me I would find that incredibly uncomfortable, so those of you who do it, please think twice!
