Closeness with a gay freind as a girl?

Anonymous
Yes, I understand that they're gay and like guys, and yes I respect that for them, but all my freinds are calling me things for not being as close as they are to him.

The reasoning I gave them is because I'm in a relationship and even if I wasn't I wouldn't be comfortable: it's not because of them, it's just that I'm not comfortable. I've grown amoung 6 sisters and haven't been freinds with a guy till after I graduated highschool. I'm just not comfortable around guys that are not my partner.

I'm not even comfortable around girls I don't know in terms of direct contact like touching or hugging, so it's normal for me to be even more drawn away from guys.

My freinds have said, 'You're just unnecessarily self-centred', 'Why can't you just be normal, do you think he likes you just because he's being freindly' Of course I don't think that, he's gay and I'm in a relationship and everyone knows that. But I still don't want someone to hug, wrap thier arms around me, or touch me anywhere that's not my hands regardless of who they like.

Am I so wrong for just saying I don't like people touching me unless you're family or a really really close freind?
