So that coffee and Danish are out of the question then??

i'm fairly comforstable with hugs and such from friends, but having recenty found someone to kiss and hug-- I just can't seem t get enough or maybe he's just that damn cute?

what does coffee and danish have to do with hugs??
There are always exceptions to every rule!!

I would be ok with it i have my dog...

Know what you mean Jan. Cute sweet guy hugs are the best !

That I agree with...but there's people at work that come up and put their hand on my shoulder and I just give them "the look". I don't invade other's personal space...and I like mine respected. Now if it's a really hot gal...totally different story. She can be all over me like white on rice. (joking....at that)

aren't they just!!!!!

Can I just make it clear that this is not about personal preference, the differing personalities may or may not like being touchy-feely per se but....
Its more about the human condition..... I am not particularly a touchy-feely person myself but to not be tactile with any other human being (in whatever form)... ever? Yes, I do believe that would have an impact on my general well-being...........

And, this also includes simple physical presence of another human being. Could any of us not have ANY inter-action with others and not feel it in some way?? For example, if you never needed to go to the store, have a coversation with the assistant, a passer-by, a colleague, a neighbour, if you didn't go to work, go to the gas station....

How many of us could truly be okay with that?

Awww Stewie, c'mere, I just wanna hug the stuffin outta you!

Hey are you trying to keep us from hijacking your thread?

What is that supposed to mean??

One touch can soothe, comfort and convey caring in an way words never can.

There is a healing power behind the touch and we all experiece that, all the time, without even realising it.

I think at times we forgot about the power of the physical contact; some of us never really developed that state of comfort when touching the others, some of us might loose it when changing the environment ( some cultures are more prone to close contact than others).

And there is also the reason behind the touch and the chemistry with the person you touch.
I am a tactile person and living in an environment where people hug and kiss when they meet, so it's really easy to make body contact.

But of course that can't be applied to everybody and there are plenty of people I meet and just shake hands with and that's perfectly normal.

I think a hug, at the right moment, from a person who really cares, can make a great difference.
