Good touch, Bad touch

Please forgive me if this has been discusses before, I am a only a few days old to this site. As I have accepted my feelings and learned to control them I have allowed myself to get closer to a few young friends in my life. My closest is a relative. What constantly bothers me is the question of what is motivating my actions and where, exactly the line is. Physical display of affection is obviously a large part of loving someone, but the line seems to become grey win it comes to kids. For instance. When I am sitting with my yf with my arms around him, or perhaps rubbing his back I constantly check my feelings to make sure nothing I don't want to come up in my thoughts does. I start to question if simply rubbing his back is wrong. Is that across the line. I keep telling myself, as long as there is nothing "impure" about my thoughts as doing it, then it isn't wrong, but that doesn't seem to appease me. Mostly I worry about this problem still effecting me when I have children of my own. Will I be overprotective of my son from myself? Will I end up not physically loving him as much as I should because I was unsure of where the line was? This problem REALLY gets on my nerves. |
