    Absolutely not. I can't stand being touched and it drives me mad insane that people try to force themselves on me, after I've expressed my dislike of being touched. Sure, I hug and kiss my son, but he's my kid. I shouldn't have to feel guilty about any of this. :mad: :mad: :mad:

    I'm definitely a hugger with my family and close friends. Hugs are just so comforting. I could hug all day.

    No, not a hugger. Had my bad experiences with people coming up to me hugging me when they smell of armpit and liquor. That killed it for me. Paws off me or I will be rude.

    I love hugs!! specially long hugs. One of my pet peeves are awkward hugs, that's when the other person tenses up and I realize that not everyone likes hugs and I have to let go. I'm very affectionate and that makes me a hugger :)

    I'm pretty affectionate. I do the bro hug thing on rare occasions but since most of my friends are female there's no real need.

    I only hug my enemies as a sign of disrespect. No one else..no one else..

    If I want full-body contact with someone I'll ask for it. Someone coming at me with arms open leaves their strike zones vulnerable.

    Hugging wasn't really a thing in my family growing up (with the exception of my grandmother on my mother's side), so I'm not typically in the habit of initiating them. That said, I'm comfortable with being hugged provided that it's not held for too long - that just gets weird - and it's coming from someone that I've actually gotten a chance to get acquainted with! Sometimes a handshake just feels too formal, so you go for a hug.

    ill only hug you if you are my mom , sister

    or if at some point in my life we have been in an intimate relationship which means I am comfortable/use to having you touch me

    otherwise everyone can stay out of my bubble

    I'm not a mushy person. Heck I even eloped so I did t have to do mush infront of people. I'm not a hugger.
    With 2 exceptions.
    If you are one of my kids. ( 2 of those suckers think they are too old for hugs. This is why kids don't know anything. You are never too old for hugs from mum)
    And I'm drunk. I'm a flirty huggy drunk.

    I'm not really a huggy person, even with family. My reaction to non-family members hugging me tends to be similar to that of a rabbit caught in headlights - freeze, hyperventilate, and wait for it to be over.

    I would only allow hugs from select close people. I generally do not like to be touched.
