Energy

Have you ever been attracted to someone's energy before?  Either that you really need to be around a person or even to connect with a person.  How about the opposite?  Feel you can't be around a person and try to avoid all contact.

I feel that attraction.  It's nothing sexual.  It's just I'm drawn to their energy.  This goes along with my touchy feely-ness.  I also believe that the people with the energy that I'm attracted to are the people I keep in my circle of friends.  I have a hard time explaining/expressing this attraction.  I just feel the urge to be around them and sometimes to touch them.  Again nothing sexual.  Like I just want to hold their hand.  If I'm sitting next to them maybe put my arm around them or put a hand on their leg.  Just to connect with that energy.  Is that odd??  It doesn't matter if they are a guy or a girl.  Like my best friends husband.  We were driving back from Five Guys one time and we were both in the back seat.  His wife and my wife were in the front.  We were very close to each other due to the car seat with their daughter on one side.  I just so wanted to just put my hand on his leg.  I resisted because I didn't know how he'd take it.  He has a great energy about him and I wanted to connect with it.  The same situation happened again with my best friend.  Coming back from Moe's one night, she and I were in the back seat and again I had the urge to connect with her energy.  Again I resisted.  I don't understand this urge. 

For the opposite, another good friend's brother, I don't want to be around.  I feel he has an energy I don't want to be around.  Her husband is the same way to me.  I can't explain it.  It's not because they are guys.  My best friend from High School.  I am highly attracted to his energy.  I never want to stop a hug from him.  I don't know.  I fear that this attraction could come off as creepy.  Or be perceived as an advance.  But it is totally innocent.  But how do you tell your friends or their spouses, you just want to hold their hand.  You want to connect with their energy.  I don't think I can.  They would think of me weird or lying that it is innocent.

I miss my theatre days.  At an outdoor theatre I worked at, it wasn't considered odd if you wanted to just hold someone's hand, or put your arm around them or touch their leg.  It was just the norm.  Like we were all connecting with each others energy.
