Threatening people with violence isn't an interpersonal skill, goes against the OP's stated feelings about escalation and violence and as you pointed out yourself, this won't even really work. — spiral succulent 34 secs ago

+1 for "If you start feeling like it's more than that, take a step back and talk to her about it." It is a real concern when you spend a lot of time in physical contact with another person. — ThatOtherGuy 1 min ago
