Which I suppose is a good consolation prize.<br /><br />I've increased my hug comfort level from a 2 to a 4 over the last few months. Since then I find I'm more willing to hug friends and initiate it a lot more often than before.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770580070906411828.post-73012287994428760932009-11-30T14:08:34.138-05:002009-11-30T14:08:34.138-05:00oh my, I think I am exactly the same way - I'd...oh my, I think I am exactly the same way - I'd love to have more nonsexual touching in my life, and yet also I am likely to be the one who ruins/sexualizes it...<br /><br />flightlessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770580070906411828.post-36142258923566434252009-11-30T11:17:38.423-05:002009-11-30T11:17:38.423-05:00I agree...and as someone who grew up with a nontou...I agree...and as someone who grew up with a nontouchy feely family (love was expressed freely but not physically), I have had to get used to hugs with friends and piling on someone's futon to watch a movie en masse and I think that it's a wonderful thing that I wish there was more of. <br /><br />When I traveled to visit a friend working in rural Asia last year, I was surprised by the physical displays of friendship and affection between men and women, and women and women, and men and men.
