Yes I think you are absolutely right, Traveler.

At the time (years back) I was there with a current (now an ex) and I was having a bad feeling with him there but that was between us.

He would few times I remember first touch me soft to then do it suddenly tighter (like his hand on the shoulder or neck if we just stood talking. If someone else looked on it would not be visible but I felt the difference). I never knew from one instant to the next.

It has been when I have thought back now and began to search on stones and recently been into a spiritual store where I could see how beautiful they were that I realized the way he handled them was to me in a reckless way.His face expression was what mostly then caught my eye and made me feel uncomfortable.
