    Most of my family are big huggers and even kissers. I hug lots of people if they ask or initiate. hugs are good for your mental health.

    Nope, not unless it's my mom or my boyfriend. Other than them I don't want to be hugged.

    Sure, I'll hug pretty much anyone. Except Packers fans.

    Damn, was really hoping for a hug from you too ;) Bears and Viking fans are so unfriendly...

    Sometimes but if it's forced it can be quite awkward or I tend to have the habit of patting people's back when I hug especially guys lol. One guy was like that's what you do to your brother.... Lol

    I'm a hugger with my family, and an awkward introvert for everyone else.

    Hahaha

    Only with my toddlers. Other than that I have a large personal space requirement. I normally don't want people touching me unless they have my express written consent. lol

    With people I know, definitely! Not those wimpy limpy hugs either. I love proper bone crushing bear hugs :D

    Yes hugs are just good for you. They improve your mood and boost your immune system

    Yes, love giving and receiving hugs!! I'll hug my entire family and friends. Co-workers if they need one. But would never make anyone uncomfortable.

    I have friends I hug and friends I handshake with and I have friends who get the brohug and some who get nothing more than a tip of the hat. And then there are two friends who every time I see them have to go in for the overly-excited-labradore-like-tackle-hug.. which I don't object to. All depends on the person really. :)

    Huggggssss are a fantastic medicine for lots of things, so YES I love my hugs.... Of course after reading some peoples replies I would have to agree even though I like my hugs I have issues with certain people in my space and feel agitated by it, but do I say anything .... Nope I just send really negative energy their way! ;)

    I hug. I like giving and getting hugs. I also respect other people's personal space. Forcing a hug on someone would not be fun.

    Expect the Labrador hug, should we ever meet. Leg humping optional. :lol:

    I seem to be the only one but just not a hugger. Unless I am drunk or she has big jugs. JK

    Love hugging and being hugged! Apparently I'm good at it. I'm also pretty good at sensing who is and isn't keen on it and don't smother those with a defensible space.

    Yup. I'm generally pretty aware of this.
