Do you hug your IRL friends?

[Tyrantrum]

I don't hug guys. I hug girls everyday, though. ;D

My friend and his other "emo" friends hug each other. They could use the support. ;(

 

[World King]

Ah, the wonders of hugging... one of the best things we can do. I hug all those that I know, at least once each time I see them. I also love to e-hug people very frequently. It's feels nice. :)

Guy-guy hug; eh, not good for me. Kthnx. ​

Hugs are so much better than kissing or dancing but maybe not sex.

They're so warm and make you feel loved. 8D

 

[.Ozymandias]

Hugs make the world go around! I love giving and recieving hugs from anyone and everyone ^_^

 

[Dignifiedsoul]

I give out hugs all the time. They make me feel better,they make my friends feel better, they keep you warm and winter is upon us! I just really like hugs. Theres something so comforting about them.

I'm too socially awkward for hugs. I'll hug at the wrong moments, or I'll hug someone who doesn't know me to be kind, but I never seem to get it right klgsjgfdk
I don't mind others hugging me though, that's nice. I'm just no good at it.

of course, there's always internet hugs. I'm really good at internet hugs! :v

It seems that some people think of hugging as something more than emotional reassurance. That's all it is; it's nothing to do with being attracted to the person in any way. To hug someone, or to be hugged, is to assure/be assured, which is why, as people have said, you get a nice warm sensation.

Coming from a straight guy, there's nothing wrong with a guy hugging another. As has been said, it is close-minded for people to think that for males to show affection to others is automatically homosexual. I hug both my male and female friends, either when I'm joking around or when I'm trying to comfort them.

I love hugs! They're just so quick and easy, and unlike kissing, school admins don't get all uptight about it. (I actually got one today, so there, it does make people feel good) plus, its kind of hard to be a bad hugger.

As for the whole guys-hugging thing, it's an epidemic at my school but you get used to it, especially if you do any sports, were group hugs are pretty much mandatory after scores or you win a race. Besides, it's better then having your ass smacked or your pecs grabbed by a male teammate or random dude.

Hugging random people at the airport/trainstation/on the street/at a store = epic win.

 

[BHwolfgang]

I love hugging everyone! It's just that there are moments where hugging them would be either awkward or uncomfortable.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

I don't. Not because I don't like them, but I'm worried they may not be socially acceptable. Glad to see that I'm wrong on that account :)

Still, I'm not quite up to where I'll start hugging random people XD

 

[PKFL_531]

Barely ever do I get to hug someone, besides family(which includes cousins, parents, etc). Nobody really likes me.

 

[Captain Hobo.]

Yes i hug my friends and the hug me.

 

[Superficial Mycosis]

Yes, I hug my friends! Have been known to sit and cuddle too.
If people are so insecure that they have to pick on others who arn't then.. I guess I pity them, must suck being scared to give someone a hug, heh.
The only time I might try to avoid it is in my house, because I can't stand how thrilled my mother looks when she sees me hugging a male friend.

I hardly ever hug my family though, I don't feel at all comfortable around them.

 

[RYOUKI]

The last time I hugged someone, was when I was in 3rd grade. The last week of school, and the person I hugged was not going to be in my school next year. So I gave her, yes her, a hug. Lol, her expression was like: 'wtf.' So I never did that again. Besides, I don't even say -hugs- online. Like, wtf.

 

[Doonesbury]

If someone asks for a hug, then sure I don't have a problem. But I've never really been known to just 'give' someone a hug without any warning. That's just... creepy. But yeah, like I said; I'm not against them or anything.

 

[Yamikarasu]

Yeah, I hug my female friends a lot. They're clingy... >_>

 

[Gummy]

I am a very huggable person. I hug pretty much all my female friends, and even my guy friends if I haven't seen them in a while.

 

[Alistair]

I don't really hug my friends, guys or girls, unless it's in public and we're making people feel extremely awkward.

 

[Heather]

I always hug my friends. Im a very huggable person. I even hug people i dont know.
