yup.

I am very touchy feely. I need to learn how to control it

I love to cuddle, i love to snuggle up on the couch, i love to hold and be held.



I think sometimes i cuddle too much but so far she still likes it

Unless it's a girlfriend, or my sister's kids hugging me, I don't like to be touched.

Keep your fucking hands to yourself!

Yep, I love to cuddle

I could use a cuddle today...

Well, unless she's sick and contagious like she has been this week. I'm soooo hoping the antibiotics kick in big time real soon.

Tactile and can be touchy feely IF the other person is comfortable with it as well. I can easily respect peoples scared space if they need that surrounding them as well

We hug here .. our parents our children our friends ...it's how I remember it always being and I am comfortable with it

My oldest kids ( mid-upper 20s ) still give great hugs and my teens are the BEST huggers ever

you will miss the daily hugs but it will also make those special adult type hugs from your children ( IF they still do it ! ) even more special

As a child,I didn't really grow up with lots of hugs and shit








Hugs are cool for certain situations, but I'm not too affectionate.

The only person in my family who I hug regularly for no specific reason is my grandma. I honestly can't remember the last time I hugged my parents, but every time I visit my grandma, I always hug her as I'm leaving. It's like a tradition and I feel weird if I don't hug her. As a whole my family's just not the "huggy" type. When I was little I used to hug my parents before going to bed, but they seemed kinda detached that I guess one day I just said "fuck it". I mean, I do and always have called them by their first names.

AnckSuNamun said:

My best friend calls his parents by their first names. It's so strange to me. And his little sister doesn't, which I think is interesting.

They're a very cuddly bunch, though.

Totally cuddly. Ask my boyfriend...lol. I will always be the cuddly gal. Can't help it.

The other day I was shopping in a major supermarket and went to get a trolley and a woman was also collecting one at the same time and she let out a big sigh. I responded by saying that it seemed to be one of those days and she started saying that she was going to the Dr at the hospital because she has breast cancer and was hoping for some good news. She said that she had a friend she met at the clinic and were going through the same processes together. She said that her friend had the news that she had inflammatory cancer of the breast even though she had a mascetomy. She then said that her breast was now inflamed and she expected the worse. Right there and then in the middle of the supermarket she started crying and said that she had no one to talk to. I gave to a big cuddle and she cried into my shoulder holding on. When she had cried out, I took her for a cup of tea and we talked and afterwards I gave her another cuddle. She said that she felt better and said that I shouldn't have cried like that because I hardly know you. I said that I was the friend that she needed at the time. She gave me a kiss on the cheek and I now have her phone number and we talk. The cuddles helped.

Very moving story- thank you for sharing.

shanti0608 said:

You are very welcome.

AnckSuNamun said:

My family was and is pretty much the same way, we never really hugged it was more like the uncomfortable lean in and pat on the back type of thing. Even though I wanted to be more affectionate as kid, they just wasn't feeling it...not until after my niece was born. And I would be dead if I called either of my parents by their respective first names.

I am a natural born cuddler! I go nuts when I don't get my daily dose of human touch. I snuggle everyone, whether they like it or not. Well, within reason.
