Sensitivity to insects?
Recently bugs have really been paying attention to me, for example when there was a praying mantis on my hand it refused to get off, I have had multiple butterfly's come up to my face, hover, and leave. I can get extremely close to butterfly's and they don't care. I automatically know when and where a insect is, even if it is behind me... There have been many more instances where bugs will climb on me like I am their friend.... has this ever happened to you? Do you know of anyone ever being extremely sensitive to insects, like the insect thinks they are their friend?
Thanks :)

Insects lack the brain power to comprehend friendship. The do often follow scents. Perhaps you're using a lotion which attracts them. Eating garlic tends to discourage their visits.

Well, I would have to know to be certain, but a lot of insects are attracted to certain types of scents.
