Today, my boyfriend and I get along very well, but I’m not used to being extremely close to somebody. Every time we are together, I always somehow manage to elbow him in the balls. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was cuddling my new boyfriend, when he went in to kiss me for the first time. Sadly, I reflexively kneed him in the balls. FML
Today, my boyfriend gently pointed out that when we hug, it's our stomachs that touch first. FML
Today, and for the past year, my boyfriend keeps wanting to arm-wrestle with me. I’m rather petite and I don’t exercise a lot, yet I’m still waiting for him to win, just even once. FML
Today, my boyfriend of over a year looked at me and said, "Sometimes I just want to hit you." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were getting heated. We were having a lot of fun until I decided I wanted to be on top. He instantly got soft. FML
Today, my boyfriend poked me on Facebook. I got excited because this is as close as he's come to touching me in weeks. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I were play-wrestling on the bed, when he started to tickle me. I tried to pull away but he pushed me back down. I ended up hitting my eye on the corner of the nightstand. His comment was "this is why you shouldn't struggle." FML
Today, I was cuddling with my boyfriend and told him how smitten I was with him. He responded by giving me a wedgie. FML
Today, I discovered my boyfriend is incredibly ticklish on the bottom of his feet. Trying to be a bit flirty, I slowly slid two fingers down his calf and mockingly tickled his feet. He reacted by inadvertently elbowing me in the nose, nearly breaking it. FML
Today, my boyfriend was telling me about accidentally punching his best friend in the face. As he was acting it out he ended up punching me and giving me a bloody nose. FML

Find a shorter boyfriend. An accidental elbow to the gut or the chest is tolerable. But don't go so short you elbow the poor midget in the face. Or. If I might go out on a limb... Learn to control your ******* elbows!

That’s a problem that will solve itself. Sooner or later boyfriend will get the hint and move on to someone less prone to elbowing him in the nuts… I am no psychologist, but I suspect that the repeated incidents are not exactly “accidents”. For some reason as OP suggested they are uncomfortable with having anyone close and she’s probably doing it unconsciously, but at some level intentionally… OP, you may need professional counseling to deal with an underlying problem. Perhaps you are excessively defensive of personal space in a context where this is not usually the case. Or perhaps you were attracted to someone who doesn’t respect your personal space. Or finally, maybe OP is simply very young and new to the concept of dating, closeness, and “sweethearts”. In that case you will probably outgrow this awkwardness and figure out how to navigate the closeness issues.

The jockstrap will certainly help until then.

You need to put the cup in the jockstrap for protection. The jockstrap alone is just like a bra for the male junk.
