Interesting question
Never thought about it
Was reading one commenter says she don't like to hug every guy. I have a trick for this to avoid awkwardness
I face a girl holding my right arm straight out at a 45° angle from my body
If she wants a hug, I hug her. If she wants a handshake, I do it
The hello wave is still, admittedly, weird from this position but, I brush it off well
I've always been a bear hugger. I think a limp hug is cold and weird
A tight hug with its warm embrace, to me, is more intimate. And I think even totally platonic friends do still have a certain type/level of intimacy between them. Just not the same intimacy that automatically comes to mind for most people reading this. There's boy-girl intimacy, and there's boy-girl romantic intimacy
I think a hug is a hug. For the most part. Just because you hold your elbows at your sides and your hands to your chest doesn't mean the hug can't still have romantic intimacy. What if you're just freezin your tits off at the time?
I suppose the difference in intimacy is where he puts his arms on her and how long the hug is
Strictly friends
Hug is over in 0.5 seconds
Probably minimal grip, I still squeeze
Platonic friends
Maybe 1-2 seconds
Maybe a quick squeeze in the middle
Best friends/ain't seen you in a grip!
Better pack a lunch. It's gonna be a while
Hard squeeze for sure. This is love right here. No, not romantic love. I'll probably bruise or dislocate a rib or two
Acquaintance/friends and seeking romance
At least 2 seconds, could drag out to nearly awkward
Solid squeeze and the hands are usually lower. You won't be able to inhale.
Already in a relationship
There'd better be a serious tongue battle going on at the same time, dammit. So, the hug will last a while
Definitely going to be some cracked ribs and a few more dislocated
Even with a bro hug, I still give a quick squeeze but, that's that brotherly love thing.
The bro hug is more of a handshake with an added smash on the back of the shoulders though
I love how tiny chicks feel in my arms. I can feel the spine and ribs, the waist, I can feel her breathing. Hell, I can even feel her very life within her. It's kinda cool.
Plus, if I drop my elbows to where her waist is and give a quick, sharp squeeze, most chicks let out an involuntary squeak. It's cute as hell!
The only hugs I don't like, are from my friends' kids. I'm scared I'll hurt em. They're too tiny
And the little bastards always leave snot on my fuckin shirt, too. 🤦♂
I'm thinking.. ur cute.. most young girls are.. and although most guy's don't wanna admit it.. hugging cute stuff is the stuff they are made of... so... yeah.. you get us hiny huggled to death...
And about the big boob huggers.. yes they like to feel that... but that doesn't mean ur boobs are too small..
A real guy doesn't go for a set of boobs.. only the ones that are after something else..
A real guy just enjoys the closenss of a hug, and the comfort that comes with it...
And the longer they know you, and have that 'aww.. she's so cute.." running in their minds... yes the more huggy they get..
Maybe you can call it love, I don't know, but it's the love you get without having a relationship... just a nice moment..
And yes.. it's hard to tell the perv thoughtsies from the ones who just like to see you..
But that's with everything... for now I'd say be glad that they hugg you so tightly...
and who knows.. maybe the one you lookin for is among them.. that is.. if you dun have a steady hugger for that purpose yet..
BEARHUGS ARE GREAT !!! SPECIALLY WITH RAGDOLL CUTIES !!
Damn typos..
"you get us hiny" ==>> "you get ur hiny"
also.. in everything you gotta take the good with the bawd...
BUT
You can put ur arms in between if you don't wanna.. when you do that, a guy won't try for much longer..
He'll back off.. unless he's relative.. he'll still hug you to death.. specially long time far away relatives... LOL..
yeah,.. that's the burden of being cute..
This is such a cute pov.
Guys are just trying to send a message that they'd like to get to know you better. It's not usually about the boobs or anything like that.
thanks Luv me, and thanks, anonymous, for the MH!
It's true about the "cheap feel" thing that you mentioned because I have experienced that many times before ( I have large breasts) so, I don't hug men unless it's my man or relatives that I haven't seen in a long time. But, you don't have to have a big bust for men to hug you to feel you up, some guys want to hug women to feel her body tightly pressed against him that is something that can happen too if a guy likes you a lot and the hug can last a long time. sometimes tight hugs happen if your friends miss you and haven't talked to you in a long time, But if you see your male friends on a regular basis and the hugs are too tight and last a little too long and it's uncomfortable for you , you can always ask you friends not to hug you every time they see you. But, only do it if the excessive hugging is awkward or uncomfortable for you but, if you are a generally warm and affectionate person and like to hug everybody then just go with it. You are blessed with friends who love you!
I've never had that when hugging my best friend either me or her have done the additional squeeze as reassurance if one of is id's upset.
I think it depends on there relationship with you because my guy friends do this with me and I have a deep emotional connection with them and I think they like how it feels to be close it may be just a sense of security and they like holding you especially one time I was crying my guy best friend hugged me tight for like 20 min and I think it was a very safe secure gesture on his part and I mean I feel a lot of girls and guys like getting hugs from the opposite sex anyway I think it's just comforting

I need to be squeezed to death by hugs. Feels better that way.
I know! My (then) boyfriend did the same thing. Also, when I would open the front door to let him in, he would grab me around my neck and pull me into the apartment. I told him to quit doing that, my head isn't a football. He was too rough with me. He picked me up once straight up with his arms around my bottom and I went way up high. It hurt and I screamed for him to let me down. 5:00 the next morning I was lying in bed, and all of a sudden my entire body broke out in hives! He got his cellphone and made a video of me to show my doctor. My doctor said I have Mast Cell Activation Disorder. I would break out on my insude wrists too.
Be gentle with us!
If I hug someone tightly I usually have a strong relationship with her. It's not because I want her breast against me. I am showing how much I care for them. After my late wife died I had a good friend that she would hug me tight and I would hold on to her just as tight. We are friends that love each other. Not in a sexual or relationship sense. My best friend I call my brother we will shake hands and hug each other as tight as we can. I love that guy. But again not in the sexual or relationship sense. And some guys don't realize exactly how hard they are hugging someone unless we get told. Or you could have friends that like you more than just a friend and it's a way to get close to you.
When I sleep i hug a pillow, pretty tightly and pillows dont have "boobs", well not in my bed anyway. It probably means for me i love my mother and she gave me tight hugs so when I get hugged i want that same thing. A hug is supposed to be a squeeze. When my niece hugs me she practically cracks my spine. She is also pretty strong. I think you might be reading into the hug too much. Best way to find out, after a tight hug ask why he did it. I am open with all the women i know. So if one asked me why did i give her a tight hug, my reply would be, its the kind of hug i prefer. But if it makes you uncomfortable I won't hug you anymore. All you need to do is ask.
I just want to get closer. Whether it's a platonic, cathartic hug, or something more intimate, my attempt to reduce proximity is a sign that I want to be close to you.
If he's pressing in at the hips, he's probably into you. If he's holding them back, he's probably aware of the message it'd send otherwise. If he feels pretty relaxed down there, and is focusing on the hug, it's likely platonic.
Sometimes we I don't realize it and I have been told that I give tight hugs. Some liked it and others were indifferent. No on said they didn't like it. Actually some of the tightest hugs I've every gotten were from girls.it's like they didn't want to let go. Soft hugs and handshakes are so disrespectful in my opinion
Well, I am single now, but when I was with my ex girlfriend, she usually compained that I hugged too hard. I didn't do it for boobs or anything - I liked to feel her close to me. I don't know why. It's weird. But I definitely have a bone cruching hug.
I don't hug people at all if I don't love them. By love I mean, can tell them by deepest secrets, can know they are there when I need them, can call them anytime (in middle of night if there is an emergency like my friends know they can do to me if they are in trouble) and can make me laugh and comfort me when I am sad. It takes me about a year to love someone, so by that point, yes I am super comfortable with the person and will give them tight hugs to show them I care. :)
Guys are just rough when they give hugs. The closer a guy hugs you, the more he feels for you, either as a person or romantically. That being said, feeling a girl's t*ts is not a undesirable side effect of close hugs, so that is a significant secondary factor in the equation.
Personally it has nothing to do with boobs. I think it’s more just a guy thing. Guys also have firm handshakes with one another and we are trying to feel the other man’s knuckles or palms it’s just a masculine thing I guess. Same with hugs, I think maybe soft hugs are for hugging elderly but tighter hugs are for the rest maybe? I just never put much thought into it
Hugs are tools to get to second-base with you via our chest. Also, if you hug a guy from behind, he will try to find a way to get your boobs to press harder into his back. Yes, sometimes we do things a little rough without meaning to, but generally we know exactly what we are doing.
We're just trying to feel you up with our chest.
But, seriously, we don't all squeeze hard. One of my best friends loves my hugs BECAUSE I squeeze so hard and she complains about her last boyfriend's "hugs" which were not much more than him touching her back for a second or two!
Because we are like the Hulk and we don't know how strong we are :3 and plus we want to smash you ;)
I rarely hug other women and when I do I keep some distance because it is respectful but with my wife I wrap her up I try not to squeeze too hard but sometimes I do because I love her so much and that emotion translates into physicality so I squish!
I've never noticed a guy do that, but if you're a petite girl then I can get why they would want to squeeze you, because petite girls are just so squeezable. But otherwise, I agree with the breast thing... Maybe they do that just to feel your boobs...
I don't even like hugging.
Being hugged by someone with big boobs is pretty comfy though.
Wait, what the fuck? I just realized the people who like to hug the most (from my anecdotal experience) are girls with big boobs. Coincidence? I think not.
I've noticed this too... never complained lol.
Idk😂 there was this guy i knew and thisbwas a longtime ago but he liked me b4 and then later on since i didn't like him he claimed to have not liked me anymore. And one day outta no where he just picked me up and hugged me sooooooooo hard. And i was like what was that for😂😂😂
In my opinion, it could two options.
#1) It's a sign that the guy essentially doesn't want to let go of the relationship.
#2) It's so that he can get closer to you [physically]. Not in a pervy way, just a "I like holding you in my arms" type of way.
Inside every woman, is a little girl who just wants to feel loved and protected. Squeezing is more a patriarchal leftover from childhood where we received that and understood its reassuring. It's our role in society to be the protector so we squeeze.
It's not about the boobs...
It's because
1. We don't realize how fragile you are, and how strong we are...
2. We don't get many hugs and it's a nice feeling to hug a cute girl... It's emotional comfort
I guess guys do it unintentional sometimes. Just like I almost scream whenever a coworker gives me a handshake and I feel like they are about to break my bones xD
When we don’t squeeze tight enough women get upset. I remember having a girl telling me that “I have shitty hugs”. I was just trying to not overpower her the same way you are complaining about.
I always go for big ole hugs I want the person I am hugging to understand that I truly care about them.
Gawd us guys are not all about tits and ass. If I hold a girl tighter or longer in a hug, it’s because I want to feel her heart beating against my chest. In other words, I really, really like her
Because.. this will sound unbelievable.. but.. guys have these things called hearts.. I know it's hard for a girl to understand this cos y'all are cold careless bitches.. but most guys love girls, thats why we hug them... It feels nice to hug someone u love...
It's something a girl would never understand
Why are women always complaining about everything. I don't see dudes here asking these kinds of questions.
It's not about your boobs or anything, it's about his feelings for you. Don't forget guys love the girl's body scent.
I get enthusiastic when I hug people I really care about. I like to feel like I'm holding the person close to my heart. I certainly don't do that with everyone though..
Personally, I've been told my strong hugs are the best because most others are too scared to squeeze. But if I were to squeeze more halfway through a hug it means I do genuinely care for you. Like I realize with you pressed against me how much you mean to me. As a friend.
Guys like hugs. A lot. But we don't hug each other because it's gay. So that means the only hugs we get are from girls. So we savor them. The boob part is true to a certain extent I'm sure, but not all guys are pigs. I promise.
No, you only like to THINK it's gay!! In college, I was a member of the Art club and EVERYBODY that came in or out of our office got a hug on the way in and out no matter what they had dangling between their legs!! And it had NOTHING to do with being gay!!!
Well... I only hug things tightly when something is at a high level of cuteness. I'm not exactly a fan of breasts as I am more of a legs/thighs/booty type of dude.
My boobs always hurt after it.. not a fond of it :)
I really don't know, so I am as curious as you.
scream "OUCH" in their ears... that'll teach them..
Guys really don't know when to quit.. well most of them...
If the ouch don't work, kick them in the wrinklies after..
If that really doesn't help. well.. they may actually what you search for..
(guys that take a girls kicks for nothing after hugs... well.. you can't do wrong in their eyes..)
I know a certain girl who could kick me in the nuts for hugsqueezling her.. and I wouldn't mind...
(she does not do so however.. while I could hug her so hard that I'd mush her and roll around in it.. not literally ofc... but she's just that cute...)
Ain’t got shit to do with your boobies.
It is an expression of our emotions. I am thinking of a special someone right now that given the first chance l plan on giving her a huge bear hug.
I will point out something that l am guilty of a lot. Most men when we shake another man’s hand, we do so with a tight grip. I have had women extend their hand to shake mine and l have nearly broken a few. The tight grip hand shake is just instinctive. I can see how a tight hug from the right men could make a women feel safe, secure and comforted.
It doesn't have anything to do with boobs.. its just a guy think to do, we have the need to protect those who we charish, and we want them to feel safe when with us.
Boys always want hugs for some reason, it's annoying
It feels good to squeeze her close
We are humans... we all need affection
It's more about experience related to how many women prefer to be hugged tightly. I would consider it interest but it has nothing to do with tits. Is this off putting for you or what?
I love getting and giving hugs in general. The guy I’m dating right now likes to squeeze me tight and I enjoy it
I only hug as tight as she would hug me. I guess what you could call a mutal tightness representative of our bond.
But it just sounds like he came on top strong. No pun intended.
When a guy squeezes your particular body to hard tell him. Be blunt if you have to. Some guys do not know how hard we are squeezing.
Its mostly our innate desire to feel close with someone.
Weak hugs are like weak handshakes. Feels like you're doing it out of obligation and don't mean it.
Cute aggression and an overwhelmesire to physically smoosh us into one.
I don't think that's the reason. Arround the shoulders seems more appropriate than having his hands lower.
Think of it this way: a sincere handshake is one that is firm and purposeful. Same for a hug.
light no pressure hugs are sh*t hugs in most instances
Its genuinely a token of close platonic affection. Like there's no hidden meaning behind it. He's showing that you mean a lot to him.
I do this my girl friends all the time
I don’t give it much thought, I enjoy the hug. Boobs of all sizes on the chest from women who aren’t relatives is soo awesome. Even better if they’re happy to see me.
I never hugged THAT tight, but if a guy does, I would suppose it's because he may be linking the intensity of his hug to his desire to be with you and like you - more hug = more liking.
The tighter I hug, the more interested I am in the girl. It's the other way around, but I'm too lazy to fix it, lol. I wouldn't do it to the point of pain or discomfort though
Jajajaja, I dont think its right, but a man likes to get closer.
About your boobs, those are boobs anyway If someone makes it for that reason (its strange in fact) he will nevermind
I've rarely received hugs from people in my life so hugs are like trying something completely strange and new for me. And that's for every time i do it.
Uuuuuuuuhhh... Not necessarily to feel boobs. Some of us regrettably are like that, but the majority of us squeeze tight because we want to feel the connection between us and you. It's almost like a physical cord.
Yes. I've done that myself. Im pretty sure he likes you.
Because they want to be in contact with your breasts more.
Or at least, that's also a possibility.
They might just prefer hugging a girl over hugging a guy.
I certainly would.
While it's true that we can feel the boob and some guys do it for that reason, I do it to show love to such person. It has NOTHING to do with feeling boobs, to me.
Well not a boobs thing. Maybe a feelings thing...
I personally like hugging all my friends, be them guys or girls, tightly cause I just like them I mean like friends and it feels good to show them.
You must be super cute and great looking with a lovely personality!
they are strong, that's why it feels like a squeeze oh
People who give weak hugs and handshakes are brittle
