"Why don't you like sleepovers anymore?" asked a curious girl in my pre-teen dance class.
This was a question I was asked frequently, so I gave the response most people wanted to hear, that I don't like being away from home.
When I was 16, I offended people when I quickly jerked away and almost bolted out of rooms when they tried to hug me. My friends and relatives would give a similar response to explain my reaction, saying I was not a touchy-feely person. They were all guessing, but none of them knew the real reason.
