How big is your personal space bubble? I'm usually good until you're basically right up in my face or constantly nudging into me, then the hackles are going up.

(Excluding us suffering packed trains obviously)

It usually depends on my mood. In general I do need a bit of a bubble, but the more tired/stressed/annoyed I am, the more space I need. I don't do well in crowded spaces in general, but especially when I'm in a bad mood.

1.3 meters radius. Or just out of arm's length, as a general rule of thumb.

Entirely depends on the situation. With friends, pretty small. With someone I don't trust pretty huge.

Most of the time I don't care, really, unless I don't like the looks of someone.

Depends on who you are and where I am. Usually my bubble is arm distance. I should be able to do a windmill without hitting anyone.

In general, two to three feet. If you know me well enough and I mean, very well, you can drape on me. But for a bit. After a while, I'll get up and disappear for some alone time. Like when my nephew was a toddler I could not sit down. The moment I did he would look at me like he was thinking, "You have made your legs into a chair! I shall sit down on them." And he did so. Every time. After a while I thought it was funny. He would even come running from other rooms to sit on my lap because he heard me plop down on the couch.

Depends on how well I know you, as well as how well I like you. XD

My parents/brother/best friend, and I'm content to flop against them, head in lap/legs on their lap, etc etc, but acquaintances/or equivalent and I like my few inches of space.

I can count on one hand the amount of people I'm comfortable making prolonged eye contact with though. I'm more comfortable leaning on someone than I am looking them in the eye.

people I don't know - don't touch me. Except for a handshake. About 1,5 m to actually relax.
people I like - 0 cm.

it involves a lot of math but let's just say it's constantly increasing at a rate of 74.2 km/sec/Mpc

It can depend on the person, but typically I'll want people at least arms-length away from me.

Usually nonexistent unless you've done something to make me uncomfortable previously.

People I don't know? No touchy.

People I do know, then I'm fine being up close.

Except for my head. Only like, one person is really allowed to touch my head without me freaking out and that's mom.

I'm pretty claustrophobic (with some agoraphobia thrown in for shits and giggles) so in most cases the bubble needs to be substantial. Standing in line at a checkout can be too many people in my space for me. Any kind of crowd is a no-no. Strangers touching me at all is a nope.

In one-on-one situations with people I know it's much better, but even then I need advance warning someone's going to be getting in my space.

Very very big. I'm usually a very private person.

If I know someone well enough I'm fine with them practically hanging off of me in most ways. Only thing I really hate is when -even with people I now really, really well - their faces get so close to mine that I have to (accidentally) breathe in their used air. I find that majorly disgusting.

People I don't know should really stay away at least an arm's length and not casually touch me (especially during conversations).

Mine is...well, I'd say size-wise probably about average, but my level of discomfort if you breach it is unusually high. I am not a touchy-feely person. I'm always surprised at how many of my co-workers are, especially given the nature of my workplace. :/

Depends. At least arm distance is fine for strangers or co-workers. If it's friends and family then it's non-existent and I might end up clinging to people's arms, or let people cling to my arm (which happens pretty often). If it's handsome dudes I'll probably stay far away and avoid all kinds of eye-contact because I'm not-so-secretly shy.
