| I like to hug...it seems some people don't!!!
Posted: 1/24/2007 11:16:47 AM | I wonder how long this one will last?
I just went to post in the hug thread & by the time i had finished typing it had disappeared.
Myself...i think its the regulars ganging up on a newbie to the forums...sad.
SO...I'm still going to get to make my post...
I grew up in a place where you have to watch your back & constantly look over your shoulder, a place where the hardest people in the school were girls!?
Empathy for your fellow man didnt exist, i wouldnt have dared to hug another guy.
In my late teens i went raving & experimented with drugs, ecstacy - releases serotonin in the brain...your happy release. Whilst on this drug i would have hugged my worst enemy.
Now i don't do all that anymore but the hug aspect has stayed, i hug all my close friends nowadays..including the male ones, if i hadnt experimented with that drug i dont think i would have learned that its ok to hug until much later in life.
Everyone needs a hug at some point, never underestimate the power of a hug.
So...Did you have to learn how to hug?
Was it always there & you didnt have to give it a second thought?
How important to you is hugging?
Go on deleters....have a ball!!! | |

Posted: 1/24/2007 11:22:57 AM | Blimey - I posted a "long and meaningful" in that thread! what was the reason for deletion?
I love hugs.
I hug all my mates when I meet them.
I hug at every available opportunity - I love it and so do (most of) the people I hug.
It's a great way to show affection, give support, show empathy and/or sympathy, and the best ice breaker on the planet!
EDIT 1: Here's my post from the previous 'hug' thread:-
At what age should it stop?
Never.
I don't remember my mum cuddling me, or ever showing me much affection.
I made a decision when I became pregnant that it would be different for my child.
My baby and I cuddle lots.
We hug and kiss each other in greeting and when we say goodbye.
We often get into bed together on weekend mornings and have a snuggle.
We cuddle up together (and I tickle her back) when we are watching TV, or sometimes when we're just have a talk.
We often hold hands when we're out shopping, or walking along a street.
She usually comes in to my bedroom to say goodnight, and tell me all about what she's been doing, when she's been out at night.
Rarely a day goes by without 'I love you' being said between us.
Neither of us is ever embarrassed by our affection - we both love it (and each other!).
And my baby is 21.
EDIT 2: Awwww, CodPiece! I love you too! | |

Something to do with big arms and long hugs!
I dont know, women are sometimes easy to please! HAHA!
Try 1 - Is this message long enough?
Try 2 - No, no it is not, perhaps if I elongate the last comment it may be? Come on!!!!!
Try 3 - While it annoys me, it does not annoy me enough to work out exactly how much I need to post...two words used to be enough :( | |

Posted: 1/24/2007 11:35:55 AM | I am very tactile and find hugging someone comes easily..And if I havent seen some of my mates male and female for a week or two we always greet each other with a hug and a kiss on the cheek..The same when we say goodnight..  | |

i love both giving and recieving hugs and have done since i was a baby and am happy to have one anytime -as long as i know you but hugs can vary depending on the person giving it you and who you are giving it to
But aware not everyone are like that so can mean even more if someone who is'nt very huggy gives you one -yes i am talking about hugs ! | |

Posted: 1/24/2007 12:51:21 PM | So...Did you have to learn how to hug?
Er, yes I did. Family was not particularly tactile for various reasons.
Was it always there & you didnt have to give it a second thought?
Didn't become huggy until much later in life, I still can't do it 'without a second thought' to anyone who isn't among closest family and friends. But I'm getting a lot better 
How important to you is hugging?
Very, very important!

Posted: 1/24/2007 1:16:32 PM | | When i'm in a bad mood, there is nothing better to lift my spirit than a hug.....even if it is a virtual hug from a stranger on here. I have never known a person who does not appreciate a hug......if hugs could be bottled, my store cupboard would be full. | |

Posted: 1/24/2007 1:25:30 PM | Certainly never got hugs that I can remember as a child- and it was definitely discouraged by the nuns when I was away at school (it can lead to impure thoughts did you know girls?).
Now, I don't have that many people I can hug...which is a shame cos sometimes it would be nice.
Ho Hum date on Saturday - so here's hoping! | |

Posted: 1/24/2007 1:26:37 PM | Hugs are the best things in the world, I feel so wanted when I'm in someone's arms it makes such a difference.
I'm always cuddling up to my daughter in bed, she's 3 and comes into my bed in the night. Then in the morning, when I drop her off at the childminders, we have a cuddle before I leave her. | |

Posted: 1/25/2007 2:11:08 AM | Nowt wrong witha hug, or a cuddle!!
being tough doesnt have to mean being cold!
Little tale.
went to with mom to visit her husbands parents, I stayed in car with girlfriend. I was about 25 at the time, Mom came out and asked me to do her a favour, she said theres a 7 year old kid in the house that thinks it's being a cissy to give his mom a hug or a kiss!
I went in with mom, and asked him if he did think it was being a cissy to give his mom a kiss? he was too shy to reply, so I just turned and picked my mom up in my arms and gave her a big smacker! he was gobsmacked, mind so was my mom at the times as she was no lightweight!!
I wonder if he remembers that ? | |
