I hate getting wet

^^^welcome to WP

I dislike getting my skin wet, but I was a swimmer for 6 - 7 years so I guess it wasn't too bad. In fact the reason I quit swimming, was due to time constraints and etc. I'm currently recovering from my stroke at the moment, so in the future I might reconsider taking swimming as a personal hobby though.

What I don't like it's getting sticky stuff on me. I don't mind being wet.

Ya, I'm weird like that...

Normally i hate getting wet, i hate the feeling of being wet with my clothes on. I start to get angry and i need to make sure that my full body is dry until i can put my clothes on.I don't know what this is called or if this is going to last my lifetime. Its really disturbing and i don't know how people can have clothes on when they are wet. i tend to avoid rain but putting on a large waterproof coat. i hate it when the rain trickles down my back. For most of my life i didn't know what causes this and i still don't know. The internet isn't helpful at all.

i hate having oily greazy sweat stick to my clothing, makes clothing chafe against my skin. yuck.

I hate the transition from dry to wet, and I also hate feeling even remotely damp. I have major issues with the humidity we get in my area in the summer. I tend to avoid showering until it's absolutely mandatory. I have trouble getting into a pool, but once I'm in, I'm good until it's time to get out. I also have major issues with wearing wet clothing and getting rained on.

I need showers to avoid feeling the full effects of the humidity.

I don't like feeling wet in my clothes; but I don't mind it too much without clothes.

I have a serious aversion to putting my hands in water but I like baths, showers and swimming when I'm fully immersed.

The only part I hate is that my skin gets really dry afterward and it takes me about 20 minutes to apply enough lotion so I can move again. Otherwise, it hurts to bend or walk. I feel like an itchy version of The Tin Man from Wizard of Oz, when I need my body lotion. Sometimes I avoid showering to avoid that dry skin response.
