In this "politically correct"environment we see today, can you ever get tired of true, normal hugs?
Some people never hug...don't like that "close" contact. Others, like me, grew up in a family environment where we hugged all the time...relatives and friends alike.

Types of hugs:
1. The hello, friendly hug.
A greeting besides just saying "Hello".

3. The "everyone else
hugged you so I better" hug.
The quick call hug. You're at a party/event/whatever. Someone you know enters and you watch as everyone greets this person with a hug. What do you do? You join in and follow the crowd so you don't appear to be "different".

4. The family hug.
Yeah, I got used to this very quickly as a child. If someone was family, you hugged. No brainer there. Big Italian families are "touchy/feely" people.

5. The comforting hug.
These are for times of sadness and a show of commiserating (I'm here, I understand" support.
Totally different
that the others mentioned above. This one involves romance, love, passion,
lust...you name it.

Always forgetting to mention I am in the USA
I am such a hugger. I was once on a list somewhere and people said they didn't like to be touched or hugged. I was so bothered by that.
