Yeah, not big on the hugging, touching, warm cuddly kind of comfort. I appreciate the offer of physical affection, but appreciate it more when people get it that I need to think it through, and withdraw into my own headspace.
It's nice to have people there to talk to when I'm ready to talk. But I really can't stand it when people project their own feelings onto me and assume that since they like physical forms of comfort, I must like the same. Otherwise I must be deeply troubled and depressed. I'd rather a cold, unfeeling reaction to my troubles, than someone who can't see past their own emotions. Who can't just listen, and treat a person how they ask to be treated.
