Wish they'd taught me this when I was young. They told me being open and vulnerable was attractive. They also told me I had to verbally ask girls if it was okay to kiss them and if they didn't verbally say yes I was assaulting them. Intimacy has not been absent from my life, but it has had a very small role.
