OP

Let your body language and facial expression do the work for you. Zone out a little when the talk is getting too much; make them know in subtle ways that you are not listening anymore and they will get the message. For the touching part, just distance yourself a little or use style to clean whatever part they touch ;P and they will reduce it.

I also don't like people touching me anyhow or talking too much cos it gets tiring.

I don't like it either except I'm familiar with the person. When strangers touch me or put their arms around me especially where I work, I feel very uncomfortable.

I'm sure you tell them off politely, how do you go about it? A sister wants to learn.

Many times I don't...depends on my mood. Sometimes I say, "I don't like to be touched!" in a very funny and nerdy way. They laugh and get the message.

If I ever meet you, I will touch you.

@OP, some people are just feelers like that. Some are audio and some are visual.

So Glad am not the only one in this, am just afraid those kind of people who can't talk without touching or beating me self will not damage my body joint or stain my cloth. Even Old people too

Touchy Feely people. Don't like it at all unless from people I'm very familiar with...and even then it's restricted. I have some colleagues whose days aren't complete until they've touched me. Most times I let my facial expression and body language communicate my discomfort, but the the individual is too slow to read that, I tell them straight up.
If a stranger touches me, I just tell them I don't like being touched (with a frown). But some people have no respect for personal spaces sha undecided

We are not going to joke with this matter anyway, it seems you have not come across people who will be talking and touching, most especially people with extra muscles in the arm. I bet some soft body or lepa can't withstand it. You may Fall
Re: How Do You Cope With People Who Talk And Touch You? by Nobody: 1:16pm On Oct 27, 2014
My own problem is that,people with soft,fresh and sweet smelly palms don't always do all these touch and talk o sad
it's always people with palms as hoarse as sandpaper or ironsponge that specialise in such thing.embarassed grin

There is this friend of mine that can't pass his message with touching you. After telling him off in both jokingly and simple English, he failed to stop. I finally resorted to hitting him back whenever he does the touching and so far, it is working perfectly cos the touching has stopped or greatly minimized.
