The appropriate response when someone says no to physical contact is to respect their decision. Respecting their decision means acknowledging and accepting their boundaries and not pressuring or attempting to change their mind. It is important to remember that everyone has the right to decide what is comfortable for them and their boundaries should be respected. If the person changes their mind in the future, they will communicate it themselves.
