A lot of my friends hug hello and goodbye. It’s ingrained into me. Sometimes I offer a hug to people (pre apocalypse obviously) and they’re a mixture of shocked and appalled.
A hello/goodbye hug from my niece is the best hug in the world. The occasional hug goodbye of a friend I’ve not seen for a while is fine. Mandatory hugging I am opposed to.
pretty much the default greeting and goodbye for me. often will just throw in a hug in the middle if I feel like it, as many dissers can probably attest to.
once hugged my boss goodbye on my last day despite only being there 6 months. one of the only hugs I regret.
Only at the end though surely. It’d be funny to see two guys giving it a big old hug and then a minute later smashing their studs into each others’ shins.
like you might get a hug at a funeral or a wedding or something but that’s it. so find it quite weird when some people want to give you a hug when they run into you at the post office or whatever.
Big hugger. Hello, goodbye, well done, cheer up, that’s shit, I’m sorry, no problem; all sentiments best conveyed by a hug. Hugging is probably my only skill.
Saw one of my best mates while we were out on a walk a week ago, instinctively sped up to launch myself at her for a hug, was really hard pulling back and keeping a good distance apart. Made my heart hurt a bit
I like to hug people but I don’t like it when people do that weird what I call ‘light hug’ like they are still a bit away from you and just give you a sort of shoulder tap.
