how do you feel about hugs
« on: December 04, 2014, 05:33:21 PM »
I was on facebook today and drunky cow shared a femsperg masterpiece on how intimidated by hugs some people are. Is this a thing?

as a lover of hugs, I can't help but feel like I've crossed the boundaries once or twice.

Hugs amongst family and really close friends are great – it's a lovely, warm feeling.

If you're hugging or are getting hugged with/by new acquaintances or possible romantic endeavors, its a little odd/uncomfortable.

I don't like them as greetings, but hugging is A-OK otherwise.

Handshake>hug. Less awkward, isn't forced, and is memorable. I think most people are fine with the idea of a handshake to begin a date/meet, however the handshake at the end of a date/meet is more controversial. It catches women off guard and is memorable. It gets her talking with her girlfriends ("guess what? instead of trying to hug me...he shook me hand. guuurl.").

So the other day I was buying a burger and the hot black teller chick accidentally touched my hand while handing me an (empty) cup, you know like a gentile brush of finger against finger,  I dropped it because of the unexpected physical contact with another human.

Voted the seriously don't touch me and autistic option.

Hugs are great. Sometimes girls hug you in a manner that constitutes a one pump dry hump, which can be comforting, arousing, intimidating, or nauseating, and sometimes all of these things at once.

 Murs documented this on record fifteen years ago

Pussy Hug means when a girl leans in
Arches her Back and her Pussy is the first thing to make contact
Then she slowly presses her tits against your chest
Then she finally wraps her arm around your neck

Real talk, this is something I've spent more time thinking about than most.  I like getting hugs from people, but I rarely ever initiate them and I'm worried that people see me as distant or cold because of it.  I've gotten better at it, but I don't really put my hands on people much in general when I'm socializing.  I read all the studies about the positive effects of physical contact, but when I try to make the conscious effort to do so I come across articles like the one in the OP. 

The only time I've ever had someone refuse a hug though was when they were upset at me.  It's also a little annoying to watch people who've known you as a life-time non-hugger react to your hugs.  For a couple of friends I've made more recently I can say hugging a lot definitely brought me closer (I mean that figuratively.  We got physically closer too, duh.) to some of them.

They do. Especially when you don't register that they're initiating and see them give up on you and all you do is smile like an idiot because you're made of wood. :fbm

I'm a big fan of the back hug, that way you don't breath into my face.

People get very confused when they approach to hug me and I turn my ass to them and start backing into them.
