Why does it feel so different when you touch yourself and when someone else touches you?

Question

It feels so different for when people touch me compared to my own touch. Even simple stuff like someone grabbing my wrist, or grazing my skin or even tickling all feels completely different when someone else does it to me. Is there a reason for this or is that more personal?
