    Yes...

    Being hugged uplifts our mood. If you are feeling isolated or are going through a rough time, a hug releases endorphins. 3 Endorphins are the body's natural pain relievers. These neurotransmitters increase our feelings of pleasure.

    Hugs release a hormone called oxytocin in the brain. This is known as 'the bonding molecule' as it increases feelings of intimacy, helps bonding and reduces feelings of loneliness and isolation. It also releases dopamine – the pleasure hormone – which creates feelings of happiness or euphoria.

    Why do girls like hugs?

    A touch or skin to skin contact slows down our heart rate and relaxes our muscles. This action is mostly due to the hormone oxytocin. As oxytocin levels are often higher in girls; hence, cuddling seems to be more beneficial for women. Cuddling is an excellent way to de-stress and create intimacy.

    A hug lowers blood pressure. When you hug, touch, or sit close to someone you love, your body releases oxytocin, which scientists call the “cuddle hormone.” This hormone can help relax and lower anxiety, which in turn can effectively lower blood pressure. It boosts heart health

    I do and at the end of our second date, I gave my partner a long, tight ~40 minute hug; the kind where you relax your embrace a bit when she inhales and squeeze tighter when she exhales.

    And I only stopped because my arms were tired.
