Hugs are awesome!
-
Only if I can get some Hugs & Jugs.
-
Sometimes I would rather avoid a hug (the aunt that never lets go type), most of the time hugs are nice to give and receive, and they are GREAT when from my girlfriend (will never turn a hug down from her). *L4A is AFK... daydreaming*
-
I enjoy hugs they make me feel loved. To me it is considered a full body hand shake.
-
Hey Rickster, I love hugging people
-
I think it's the hugger and the hug that are the deciding factors... It's like a handshake...there are those that are firm, welcome and confident, and there are those that can make you feel kind of soiled afterward.
-
I love hugs from people I know and trust. Hugs are awesome.
-
I really like hugging the girl I am with (though at the moment she is imaginary :-( ), because often a hug is more intimate than a kiss, or indeed anything else. It gives a feeling of warmth (not just physically), emotional bond and caring between two people. However, and I realise this might seem a bit contradictory, I'm really not a touchy-feely person. This isn't because I don't like it but because I am always worried about impinging on other people's personal space.
-
I like sincere hugs from people I know... I do not like hugs from folks who use them as a handshake. They are too intimate, in my opinion. I guess I don't like "casual hugs"... LOL! It seems to me, if you're a person who hugs at the drop of the hat, you should know it is not always comfortable or natural to the person you're hugging... and may be unwelcome. The only exception - I was Hug-Mugged once by some kids on the Santa Monica Promenade... That was okay - because I understood their mission. (it was still a bit weird, tho.) http://www.freehugscampaign.org/

I enjoy hugs but I don't like hugging people I don't like or ones i don't know well.
-
It depends. If I know the person and the situation warrants it a hug is really nice. If it is someone I really don't know or a situation where a handshake would be good enough then I would probably feel a little uncomfortable with a hug.
-
I got this thing about even touching other women, long story. Anywho, the only guy I've hugged has been my father and he'll be the only guy I hug. That's why there are stern handshakes.:-)
-
hey rickster - here's a big hug!
-
I love hugs!
-
I enjoy hugs..
-
I love being and giving hugs so here is a hug for you ()
-
I love hugs!! It's like they pull all the anger and bad feelings right out of you!! They always feel good! :o)
-
i love hugs :) hugs hugss hugs for everyone :)
-
I used to feel uncomfortable about them, now I just think they're a lot of fun, especially with strangers.
-
I LOVE hugs!!!
-
I like getting hugs but not from people who I dont like.
-
I love getting hugged & giving hugs
-
I usually love hugs, but when it's an acquaintence that hugs me to pray over me without my consent, that is a bit uncomfortable.
-
I love getting hugs. Whether it be a manly hug or a hug from a female. I don't mind either one, but I prefer the female hug, it feels nicer. :)
-
I love giving and receiving hugs. hugs always make me feel great. except if it's someone you don't really like or trust too much...and they like to hug. makes me wonder if they have an ulterior motive?
-
love it !! more the better
-
If it's a woman, it's all good. A dude, very uncomfortable.
-
I love hugs...A hug from a complete stranger might make me uncomfortable though.
-
From my Wife or my Mom or Family, or very close friends, I like it. From strangers , it makes me feel VERY uncomfortable. As a matter of fact, as far as strangers go, I prefer a handshake and then the "3-foot rule" goes into effect.
-
Anyway, I prefer it to be someone I know or care about as opposed to a complete stranger. I don't give a damn if the person is a woman or a man (only men who have problems with their sexuality identity have a problem hugging men...not all hugs are sexual). I don't like those fake Hollywood hugs either where you barely move in.....I also hate those back pounding slapping noise-making hugs. That is very football team type of hugs. Also, phoney. Give me a warm genuine pat or rub on the back or just plain hug and then I know you are sincere.
-
a hug is as good as medicine sometimes in my opinion so yea I usually don't go against it unless it's someone I don't know.
-
Blind studies have shown that the average human needs four hugs a day. . . Studies by the sighted agree.
-
I'm a very tactile person and give hugs reguarly to close friends and rellies, i also love them back :)
-
Who doesn't love a good hug? In fact, I'm gonna go hug my girlfriend right now.
-
I don't mind giving someone a hug when they need it or if I need one, or even a hug when you've not seen someone for a while is great. Hugs just for the sake of it, I'm not into. Pointless hugs that last longer than a few seconds I find wierd, unless you're completely hammered that is. I remember (suprisingly enough) me and a completely random woman hugging each other (I have absolutely no idea who she was, or why we started hugging) at a festival, for at least 10 mins, just stood there without speaking, I didn't even know her name. That was probably the best, most random hug I've had.
-
I LOVE being hugged! :D
-
I enjoy them, and don't get nearly enough.
-
I love hugs! love them :)
-
I'm going to answer this again. When I did like being hugged by women, long story,but I really enjoyed the hugs with very busty women. I sort of made those kinda hugs last forever.
-
I love to be hugged, but, I'm very fragile, so if someone hugs me too tight I have the tendancy to pass out!
-
depends on who will hug me.. might makes me feel good and nice or uncomfortable
-
Sometimes yes and sometimes no. If the other person has poor boundaries and makes my skin crawl, then no way.
-
Not really, unless I feel some kind of connection with them, either devoted friend or a dearly beloved
-
I enjoy being hugged very much, if it's by the right person. If it is by the wrong person it can make me VERY uncomfortable. I give hugs to my friends when I see them, even the ones I haven't known for that long.
-
it depends on who it is. my mum used to always hug me and i used to love it because it made me feel safe. i love huggin my bf because it makes me feel closer to him and sometimes i feel like i need a big hug. sometimes i feel uncomfortable if i see people who i havnt seen in a while and they grab me for an hug, its an awkward feeling
-
It depends on who is doing the hugging at the moment,if it is people that i know then i am confortable.
-
I like it.
-
I am a hug machine. Being like a giant bear, everyone now in my wife's family will tell unsuspecting new people, " Look out, he'll hug ya," because they know I might squeeze some of their breath out of them.
-
If it's my boyfriend, that's great. If it's one of these guys, not so much:
-
I don't mind being hugged by some people. Others can go screw themselves. :P
-
I love being hugged and giving them as well. I don't think people hug enough anymore. My friends and I usually greet each other with hugs, even if we see each other often. Maybe family next door that we see daily doesn't get hugged each time but they still get their share in total. Hugs are very important:-)
-
I love hugs! I don't know why, but i feel shows comfort between people and closeness. I especially like hugs with girls in particular!
-
Hugs are wonderful! My parents taught us to hug at a early age and my family still hugs each other. When I meet a new friend and it is time to leave, I always give them a hug and say thanks for the evening.
-
Depends on who the hug is from.
-
From men it makes me a tad uncomfortable. From women, uncomfortable? HELL NO! Bring it on ladies! ;-{D~
-
I'm all for hugs, as long as it's not by a stranger.
-
Love em...I'm a hugger.
-
I like people whom i know well to hug me. I definetely enjoy hugs :D Don't get enough of em'
-
All depends on the gender, and if I'm in the mood. Sometimes I just want to be left alone.
-
I think if done correctly, a hug can feel soo connected and soo personal and soo genuine. I love `em. (Depending on who they're from.)
-
A Big Friendly Hug is Great + 5 and Hello Rickster
-
I love hugs, depending on who's giving them.
-
Always makes me uncomfortable, no matter who it is. It's never failed to put me off or to take me by surprise.
-
i Have always felt uncomfortable cause i was never raised like that.I only hug people who care about me and that is a very very slight few.
-
I enjoy hugs..very much. Getting and receiving. I don't like it when people (friends) want to kiss on the mouth though, freaks me out.
-
I LOVE hugs. with anyone. I hug my friends at school all the time, haha. The only thing taht would stop me is if the person had bad hygiene
-
It makes me really uncomfortable. :(
-
Hugging is a body language. A kind you cannot translate into words. I can understand some being afraid or frustrated from trying to make sense of such a body language but I wouldn't employ it as my attitude towards it.
-
only if I don't like the person hugging me.
-
I LOVE being hugged....mmmmmm.
-
depends on who is doing the hugging.
-
I love bodily contact, it's how I convey that I feel comfortable around someone. Unfortunately, that's always misconstrued somehow...
-
I like hugs--a lot. There is just something warm and ultra-supportive in a friendly hug. It's like an instant energy lift and boosts well being. Of course, like anything else, I need to get to know a person before throwing out my affection.
-
I'm not crazy about hugging people outside of my immediate family.
-
I am not comfortable hugging for longer than an average hello-hug. Except with my ex. If it's not a romantic relationship, it's awkward for me to hug for too long.
-
I don't like being hugged like from the front. If someone puts their arms around my shoulders type, then that's ok. Something about someone being that close and up in your face is uncomfortable. I don't care that much for the handshake either. I simply will speak or throw up the peace sign.
-
I love to be huggged and give hugs!
-
Love hugs. Got any to give away?
-
it all depends on who's hugging me. usually i like being hugged. squeezed even
-
It really depends on who is wanting to hug me. If it's my son, boyfriend or someone in my family, then no problem. It's more uncomfortable if it's someone I don't know well.
-
If it's family, or someone I know well, that's fine. If you're a stranger, though, you're gonna be eating soft food for the next month...
-
I'm a huggy kind of person for all my family, friends and 'associates' (i.e. - the friends I know sorta-kinda, not REALLY well known friends) *HUG*!
-
Depends who im being hugged by, most of the time its nice though
-
Usually uncomfortable I'm just touchy feely with the boyfriend but I could enjoy one from someone else if the did it at the right time.
-
I'm not a big hugger other than b/f's it kind of makes me uncomfortable. Even when I went to my grandmas 90th b-day and my cousins and everyone was hugging everyone I tryed to avoid it.
-
i generally feel uncomfortable when being hugged
-
I enjoyed being hugged because then it makes you more emotional, and then you feel better Greenbean
-
Hugs are good.
-
You got me thinking there. I feel both ways. And I am not sure why. The more I get in touch with myself, as I am doing now (spiritual growth, recovering from drug abuse, etc.) I tend to be more able to hug, share, and not be so defensive which may be in part why I am more apt to feel comfortable in hugging someone.
-
Man! If *ever* there was an "it depends" response?! ;-)
-
If I like the person. I love it.
-
It depends entirely on who is doing the hugging.
