Is it normal to fear being touched sexually?

I am seriously afraid of being touched in a sexual way. It makes me feel so sick and dirty, and whenever my boyfriend touches me I find myself wanting to cry. I have been forced into some sexual acts by another partner previously, but I haven't had an issue with it for well over 4 years now and yet suddenly, I can't face being touched again. I thought I was completely over it and I'm scared that my boyfriend is going to end up leaving me over it. So, is this normal?

  • after ur experience then yes its very normal. if u want to get ovr this problem then make sure ur with a stable partner and see what you realy have problems with and stay away from that or if ur up to it then just try and get over it by taking part in those acts

    It's normal becuase of ur past experience. It's ur body. If u dot want to do something then don't do it. If he leave u over it he's the wrong guy for u. Mayb explain to him what happened and u can slowly work thru it together
