    Silly question, potentially.

    I can keep a straight face pretty easily, with one notable exception. While I can handle being complimented all day, the moment somebody goes to touch me, or is willing to do so, in an affectionate manner, like a hug, then my cheeks betray me!

    I'm really not used to affection, so, it still feels pretty new to me. I also, at times, have a hard time accepting the fact that, maybe, somebody wants me to feel good about myself. While I have gotten better about entertaining the idea of, yes, somebody might care about me in some degree or manner, it still isn't easy.

    The only thing that comes close to this is, being called out of a crowd. But I can repress this, pretty easily, after it happens. It isn't so much the being called out, it's hoping I'm in the right mood to handle being put on the spot, that sparks the semi-blushing.

    I have wondered about blushing. My own cheeks don't seem to do it as far as I can tell, obviously I can't see them myself unless there's a reflective surface nearby but I've heard people say there's a physical sensation that accompanies it. Is it like tingling? Warmth? Maybe some people aren't physically able to blush or maybe it just hasn't happened yet. Hmm. Perhaps I should try some of this 'being touched by another human' lark to see if it happens lol.

    I'm the same way :icon_redf

    Being hugged or touched affectionately or, in my case, being compliment has a real tendency to make me blush. I blush very easily. And then when I realize I'm blushing, I blush even more. It's a vicious cycle :grin:

    I don't think I actually blush but, it's fairly easy to make me smile. I will have to find out when I start meeting people.

    Affection from a cute guy, seeing a cute guy, talking to a cute guy... :lol:


    Aside from that, being embarrassed in front of people too.

    Compliments...particularly physical ones. Also, having an inner emotion read and revealed.

    I blush when I'm surrounded by strangers alone in a closed place and that feels makes me so hot, and just like you occassionly "the center" of something.

    If I start to speak and suddenly all the attention is turned to me, I blush. Any compliment I get, I blush inwardly and I act as if I'm blushing, but for some reason my cheeks don't turn red. And of course if I'm in close proximity to a beautiful person, my cheeks are blazing away!

    Not much. I get embarrassed but I'm pretty sure I don't usually blush.

    If someone cute is being really touchy/flirty or something, I'll probably blush pretty bad. Or if they start talking to me, but I'm not "prepared" to talk to them.
     
  15. basically the same. if someone shows affection to me I turn bright red. also when I sneeze I turn red... haha. and when I think about or see or talk to my crush... and even worse, if she hugs me *melts*
