im a teen, iv had negative experiences with guys in the past, but now im dealing (like unofficially dating kind of thing) with a guy that is so good to me. i really care about him and he feels the same for me. i also have issues with depression (he doesn't know that). the guy im with used to touch me in specific places (just flirting, G rated) but i asked him not to because it brought on feelings of panic and fear sometimes little panic attacks (though i do get bigger ones at other times). i think it relates to the negative past experiences, because i was touched in similar ways but did not want to be. but he did stop doing it and i did explain to him about it but not into much detail. he even tells others not to do it, which i find so sweet. its not every touch ( we hug and snuggle and kiss) its very specific touches on specific places.
so could i be correct in thinking my negative feelings triggered by specific touches could be related to my negative past experiences? and possible ideas on how i could not feel these feelings anymore in this specific new positive situation? and last what could you say after having panic attacks or mini ones? as an explanation other than i was having a panic attack.

thanks
