With my 2 queer-platonic partners, I don't recieve enough physical affection, and the withdrawal is hurting every day... we've talked about why multiple times, and it's that we are still new to this relationship and that they'll get used to me eventually... but due to trauma, physical affection is my number one love language, so any small thing like a forehead kiss or handhold feels like fireworks... but for example, when they leave for work, I always listen to see if they'll come in and say goodbye, and then get depressed if it's just head scritches... I need more than what I recieve, but it's 100% valid that they aren't fully physically comfy with me yet. I'm not upset with them, I'm upset that my trauma makes me feel like that. I am genuinely happy to even be here with them and receive any small bits of affection at all. But it's hard...
