i had (almost) no problem with them hugging me, but i never could never initiate a hug by myself until a girl forced me to. we were standing there several minutes while it was snowing until i finally could build up enough courage to hug her.
kissing was a similar story, she was sitting next to me and kept looking at me in a "kiss me you stupid idiot" kind of way. i told her that i wanted to kiss her really bad but couldn't do it. she said i should just try it, which i did after a few more minutes. after that we made out until the bar closed. :)
sex was different but it wouldn't have happened if her flatmate hadn't encouraged me to ask her if i could spend the night at her place...
btw. those were three different girls and sorry op for changing topics
