I am a hugger, I love nice long strong hugs with my friends and family. Loving to hug has been hard for me with this covid-19 pandemic we have going on. I so badly want to go see my friends and hug them. Will I ever be able to again? I also think it’s what this world needs right now more then ever.
When it comes to romantic relationships, I am someone who also loves to touch the person I am with, because I also love to be touched. Whether it be hugging, holding their hands or a simple touch. If they are next to me, I would want to touch them. I’m not a massage therapist and I don’t want to be. However I am sure Terry would love the benefits of me getting trained to be one. Like I mentioned before I like to touch the person I am with and that is it. So I wouldn’t enjoy being a massage therapist. So don’t worry I don’t just start touching my friends unless their is a need for it such I am consoling them.
This is my motto,
Touch the one your with, like it’s the first time every time…
I have had my fair share of relationships. However it seems that none of them really enjoyed the touch I like and wanted to give. It was more of a it’s nice but I don’t need it and I’m okay with out it. I know because I have asked. After hearing that, I started to hold back from doing it. I thought others enjoyed the touch as much as I do, I guess I was wrong, I started to wonder if anyone I am with will enjoy it the same, or am I just overly sensitive.
One of the reasons that Terry and I work so well together is she loves my touch, she seems to crave it. On our first date towards the end of the evening we were not ready to go home, so we went to a local park and sat in her truck and talked. We started to hold hands as we were both sharing the arm rest. I happen to start gently stroking her forearm with my fingertips. She made a comment about it and it was a done deal from there. I finally found someone who loves and desires touch.
Touch believe it or not does have a healing power. It does wonders with anxiety and stress. I know that I can greatly reduce any stress / anxiety my wife may be having with a simple massage. I love to massage her head, followed by her face, neck and shoulders if she is sitting up on the sofa. If laying down in bed I will concentrate on her legs, stomach and chest. Keep in mind this is a non sexual thing when I am doing this.
So if you haven’t already, and your loved one makes a comment about being stressed or having anxiety try it out.
I love babies, so what better way to close off this post then with this video

See this is interesting to me, as touch is one of the things my mind seems to want but my body doesn’t agree on. Even down to hugs with family, they can be the best or very difficult. It’s definitely a difficult thing not to have if you are used to it though. Hopefully you can get more hugs soon x
Your mind and body not agreeing is foreign to me, I can’t even understand that.
I’m hoping more hugs come soon too thanks 😊
I used to like it more than I do now. I’ve had skin issues that made me terribly self-conscious. But I love to do the touching.
I understand that
I can totally relate. That is one of the biggest problems that I am having with this stupid virus and SIP – I am not able to hug people. I am also a hugger and it is so hard for me to go this long without giving and receiving hugs. Looking forward to the day when we huggers will be free to hug others, resulting in everyone feeling better.
