    I hug family and close friends and only when appropriate.... I like hugs though...But only when its someone I am familiar with. I find guys (associates and sometimes someone I just met) like to be more huggy... But I prefer hugs from relatives and very close personal individuals in my life...But then sometimes if I naturally get the urge to hug someone then I do lol

    I'm not that big of a touchy person, but I don't mind hugging people I feel comfortable around, even if I've only met them breifly.

    I've also been told I give really great hugs.

    A hug = a handshake for me
    Hugs just come naturally :)

    agreed! Hugs are just a natural expression of caring for me.....

    Ditto to both.

    Its according to how hot he is then it might be a long tight hug!!! J/k Hugs are for family and friends..Strangers or first meets get handshakes.

    I'm not. I only hug my family members. I just hate being touched by people I either don't or barely know.

    Oh ya! Nothing better than someone running up to you when they are excited to see you, and giving you a "lift me off the floor, faces smooshed together" love hug! Now from someone I don't know...weird.

    Old doesn't mean it isn't good. I hugged my wife and kid really good today.

    Maybe I'm weird, but I just love human touch. I crave it. I used to ask practically anyone to play with my hair, or tickle my skin. I don't anymore, but I still crave it. I relish even a brush against my skin. I make a point to put the money into customer's hands properly, not avoiding their skin. I don't mean in a creepy way, in a nice way. I don't think it's very friendly or nice to avoid touching people like that. I respect people's personal space, but I prefer to be physically close to people. On the bus, I like it when I'm sitting next to someone and we inadvertantly touch.

    I did grow up feeling (and still do) very unloved, like an outcast, and with childhood abuse/bullying, so maybe that's where it stems from. Even now, at 19, I crave human touch so much, it makes my heart ache.

    But I digress, just a little. Yeah, LOL, I love hugs :)

    Good thing you hugged them really good. Good hugs are very soothing :)

    I love to hug, everyone...but I know some and maybe even a lot of people are not touchy - feely like I am so I don't hug or anything unless I absolutely know the person does not mind. : )
