I am a touchy-touchy person: I love giving hugs, hooking arms, leaning against people, etc. But some of my friends are starting to seriously misunderstand my behavior as something much more. Though I refuse to have a boyfriend (for family reasons), I'm pretty straight. I'm just super affectionate with all my friends, girls and boys. Those that think that I'm lesbian are actually ones that I have been close friends with for a LONG time, and it's upsetting that they would misunderstand a key factor in who I am. I've tried talking to them about it because they've been spreading rumors, but obviously unconvinced. I've tried refraining from physical contact, but it just made people more suspicious. What should I do?
