Search Results: friends act around girlfriend

The title may sound absolutely ridiculous, but be mindful, I'm an 18 year old college student who has been lonely for most of his life, with a serious lack of social skills and friends, and have NEVER had a girlfriend till now... heck, that's an understatement, I've never even held hands with or been hugged by a girl, or even a peck on the cheek.

And the girlfriend I do have now, I've known her as a classmate and acquaintance for about 8 months, but we've only been dating for about 2 weeks.

We live in Florida, so by default, when spending time outside people around my area all wear tank tops and rather short shorts that go much above the knee. And me and my girlfriend are no exception.

And when I spend so much time walking around our town/city with her and doing stuff, walking right next to each other and sitting next to each other, obviously our bare skin is going to touch some.

Perhaps our bare shoulders... or bare knees/thighs... or her cheek against mine when she gets super close.

It doesn't help that her skin is just soft like an angel's, too.

Whenever she gets close I like it, but I get EXTREMELY nervous, and turn red like a tomato.

And she giggles at me, and is like, "You okay (my name)? Is that a sunburn or are you blushing?"

And I try to act oblivious to it, and she just giggles further, and holds me even tighter, intensifying her soft skin against me.

I don't this nervous when she gets this close to me when we're wearing long sleeves and jeans, but for some reason, when it's sleeveless and bare legs... it just feels like so exposing, and like something vulnerable of mine is rubbing against something vulnerable of hers, since it's our bare skin and not just jean fabric.
