nothing like this exist in this world
hugging with fake people how come it can cause you release of oxytocin?
it's all fake, a way for weak people to cope with their miserable and mediocre life
expressing emotions make a person weak, nobody cares about you.
controlling your emotions and live like a stoic makes you stronger, more desirable in the eyes of the others
I can't believe, people still fall in these types of traps like be-yourself made by society to break you from inside and allowing others to take control of yourself

I am autistic and I am really socially awkward and have not recieved any hugs in years apart from the very occasional family hug. all the things that were said that hugging helps with i really lack, for example i have a cold almost half the time and im always super stressed and tired. its been a while since this has been uploaded, but if anyone sees this, do you have any tips on how to be more comfortable hugging or how to ask a friend for a hug if i never really hug people?

Being extremely lonely sucks bcz you dont have anyone to cuddle. I for one am 1 of those people at least I was until my little brother was born. Baby cuddles are the only thing in the world you need. Nothing makes you happier than baby cuddles. Sure having a love partner is such an amazing feeling but baby cuddles are unconditional. We are bound by blood and we will never leave each others side.

I love to hug people. The pandemic has been hard on me, mostly for that reason. Now that things are opening up a bit more and people are cautiously becoming more comfortable with each other, it's important to be sure everyone is agreeable to hugging and being hugged, and I've found that it's empowering to ask, Is it ok to hug you? or to say, Right now isn't a good time, can we try later maybe?

I used to cuddle a lot with a very close female friend (not my girlfriend, never had a GF) and its a nice feeling. Ill like to point out and wonder if anyone can relate, when a womans long straight hair is all over your head intertwined with your hair, it tickles like crazy but still feels nice.

I want to cuddle a human being: (
The problem is that I've been touch deprived for so long that even holding hands is hard for me to initiate, forget about cuddling. Like people will look at me weird if I do anything involving touching because I don't EVER do it and it's so unnatural.

Millions of people are hug and cuddle deprived. that's why we have animals that are more than willing to give us that. and we reciprocate that back to our beloved animal family members. human beings are not a reliable form of any form of love. These are facts.

The bad news is I'm lonely and don't have a person to hug or cuddle. The good news is that I learned this weakens my immune system and increases my risk of heart disease, so I'll die prematurely. You can't be lonely if you're dead.

I'm definitely not a touchy person. I rarely hug people, including family. It's like my ultimate form of affection. Might have to look into getting a large stuffed animal to cuddle though, maybe that'll work

my family has always been really cuddly, and that might be one of the reasons why were all so close and happy!
i wish every family did this, it shouldnt be cringe or weird, just loving and comforting: (
