Do You Hug The People That You Love?

I come from a very affectionate family so I always give hugs. Such a simple gesture can make things seem so much better. It always makes me smile when my husband hugs me. It makes me feel loved and safe. It surprises me how many people don't give hugs anymore.

I"m portuguese, we hug and hug and hug LOL I love a hug and give them freely to family and friends. My kids are used to them and and expect them,even their friends do:) My husband's family is not like this though and it was a bit difficult to adapt to their ways at the beginning but in the end I learned. As for my family hugs were part of each day for this reason or that and I loved it :) SO yes, hug your loved ones, you really should :)

I am very much a hugger. I love hugs, though sometimes I am just am not in the mood at times for hugs. But your right hugs can make you feel so good and you can feel such a conection through hugs.

Yes I do. It just comes naturally for me. And I've even got my daycare kids doing it. Each day as they are leaving to go home, they always come up and give me a big hug. It's funny cause I started doing it with each chld from their 1st day with me. Now it's a big deal to them. They have to get their hug or they won't leave LOL.

Yes, we hug a lot, and we do it just because sometimes. You're right a hug does make you feel better everytime, if not it makes you realize your not alone. So here's a hug just to say hello.

Human interaction is key in social standards, i myself love to have a good hug with my friends, it can be a hello hug, goodbye hug, congrats hug and of course the hug you give to a partner or loved one. Essentially the world would be a wonderful place if everyone hugged everyone (might be a bit freaky) lol. With my friends though, i seem to yield a certain hug factor. Some friends although i love them dearly i can not be affection with in that way, other friends, i will hug at random, not because they want one, but because i want to give them one. strange huh? ;)

I always hug all the people that I love. I want them to always know that I love and adore them. I think it is important that they always know how I feel at all times about them. I don't ever want a day to go buy that they would have to question how I feel about them,

Absolutely. It is one way to make us both feel good. Since this topic came up, I thought I would pass this on. I work with developmentally disabled adults, as care givers we are supposed to help them to activities of daily living but let them do as much as they can. Many care givers do not have the patience to work with these people and do it themselves, it is faster and easier. Well, I took one of my guys shopping for produce. It was quiet in the store and he has always been pretty well behaved, so I decided to try and let him do more then just push the cart around. I let him tear down the plastic bags and to put the apples, orange, brocolli, etc in the bag and then into the cart. I let him pick up the bunches of bananas. Well, about midway through the trip, he was just so happy doing this, all of a sudden, he just leaned over and gave me a kiss on the cheek. It felt so good knowing I was reaching this guy, I could not have been happier that night.

All the time. I hug my son everyday and my hubby before he leaves for work and when he gets home. When I see family members I hug them too. When I meet up with my closest friends, we hug as well.

I hug my husband & my son often. But not most other people, at least not often. I'm not a cold-hearted person. I just sometimes have trouble seeing what people's boundaries are & I don't want to seem like I'm too clingy or emotional, or worse yet ~ to be rejected by them.

I am a huggy person, I love to give huggs and get huggs. My friends and I also tell each other we love each other all the time. I feel that is good also. I feel life is to short not to let someone you know that you love them.

It depends, some people I do whereas some I don't. And this applies not only to love but for close friends and such. Some are a hit and miss whereas others its just seems natural to do so.

Yes i do I hug my old mam ewery time i go to see her. I hug my wife several time aday and i get hugs from here then i feel the warm thing a hug in love are careing, and my children gets hugs even nowe when they are grown up and hawe there own familys. we shold hug the one wee love more then wee get a better world.

My family arn't huggy people I guess you could say. But my friends and my boyfriend are huggy people and I love it. When I see my boyfriend after a long time away from on another and he just sweeps me up in his arms and we hug and smooth sometimes up to an hour. Just in the drive way. I always think people are looking at us. But for all I care let them thats our time and if I cant even make it out of my car before he tries dragging me out them I know that means I mean something to him. The good bye are always great too. They usually take forever, But I like it. When I get married and have kids I will deffenatly make us a huggy family.

Yes, I do hug the ones I love. And I hug the ones I just like too. A hug can make your day, to me it is an expression of affection. Sometimes I can look at a person and tell that they need a hug to make them feel better. Great discussion Rozie.

Yes! I hug all the people that I love. Especially my family and my loved ones.

Every chance I get. When I first met my daughter in law I never saw her family hug. Now she is like the biggest hugger you have ever seen! Love getting them too!

I love hugs. I think hugs are a wonderful feeling and I love to both give and receive hugs. However, I know a lot of people who get down with the hugging thing, but I do not enjoy hugs from strangers or people that I am not very close to or comfortable with. I find it weird...and awkward. However, in general I agree that hugs are a great thing and should definitely be given and received more often.

I'm from vietnamese so my parent don't get used when I hug them . But I do that often, because when I do this , I feel them by my side all day ^^ I and my bestfriend like to give each other hugs, because we can feel love from the other the most clearly by this way . I don't have a bf yet , but when I get one, I'll give him hugs everytime he's sad or has problems ^^

yes , of course because I love them
