Aversion to Intimacy

In January 2011, I was asked: "Do you have an aversion to sex?" At the time I answered warily, not really knowing the answer but anxious to get out of the position I was in. Since then I have taken the time to analyze myself, and came to the realization that I do, or did. From there I decided to dig for the reason behind this aversion, and was awaken to the broader aversion to intimacy in its entirety.

I hate being touched. I feel uncomfortable unless the person touching me is emotionally intimate with me and even then, if I am not in the perfect mood, it will irritate me on a level that is incomprehensible to most. 

I hate being lifted, taken off my feet. I fear falling, being too heavy, toppling myself and the lifter. I fear being awkward, having my body contorted in the wrong way while being lifted. This though not directly linked to the aversion it is mentioned since lifting seems to be one of the actions males as of late are enthralled by.

Added to the above, my fear extends to verbal/emotional intimacy. Expressing how I feel about, in, towards a situation or person in a face-to-face encounter orally is near crippling. 

And yet, I still manage to feel the need for companionship, a touch, and expressing emotion in person to someone. It's unfortunate. However,  the mammoth problem here is that I don't know why I feel about and react to these things in the way that I do. There are a couple of possible explanations which have been dismissed on technicalities.
