Hugging...

Luba · 10-27-2007, 08:38 AM

I think "hugging" belongs here because it is SO uplifting to the Spirit...

(1) Do you hug your friends, relatives, SO's, partners a lot?
(2) Do you love to receive hugs?
(3) Do you accept hugs with graciousness from a person you don't really care for?
(4) Do you wrap your arms around a person and put your head on their shoulder?
(5) or...do you just give a 'barely touching' quick hug?
(6) Were you hugged a lot as a child?
(7) Do you hug your children a lot?

I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't hug somebody out there, I hug my husband every single day!

1) Yes
2) Yes
3) Yes
4) Sometimes, depends on who they are and what the occasion is.
5) See 4 above
6) I don't think so, don't really remember
7) Not as much as I should now but I did when they were little

I probably do more hugging when I am around my Taekwondo friends and at tournaments.

Not really, I only hug when a hug is deserved.

It depends on the situation I guess.

I won't hug someone I don't like.

It depends on how bad you smell.

(1) Do you hug your friends, relatives, SO's, partners a lot?
No. My gfs family are the only real huggers.
(2) Do you love to receive hugs?
I am Dutch. Hugs confuse the living daylight out of me.
(3) Do you accept hugs with graciousness from a person you don't really care for?
See (2).
(4) Do you wrap your arms around a person and put your head on their shoulder?
No.
(5) or...do you just give a 'barely touching' quick hug?
They are long ... but my standards must be low.
(6) Were you hugged a lot as a child?
No.
(7) Do you hug your children a lot?
Not applicable
I don't think there is a day that goes by that I don't hug somebody out there, I hug my husband every single day!

Ok, I was thinking along the lines of male/female. I still have issues with the other. Sorry.

No.

The Dutch and Germans are probably the most hug-o-phobic people in the whole of Europe.

Actually i noticed that in Holland but perhaps that was due to being a little intoxicated. My ex's family in Germany didnt seem to mind huggin but not as much as me. and when i had a french student living with me for 6 months it was a kiss on each cheek every morning and night and that was weird for me!
