Girls, why does a big, strong, muscular pair of arms wraped tightly but tenderly around your tiny little body make you feel like nothing can hurt you?

I love it soo much when a guy I trust holds me and it doesn't have to be my boyfriend. When they hold me it just feels like my own little sanctuary where I can forget all my troubles. It just feels like I'm cacooned in his arms and nothing can hurt me. I just love those tight 5-10 minute long hugs. Hugging other girls makes me feel loved but doesn't make me feel this safe. Does anyone else feel that way?

I feel that way hugging anyone

I feel that way hugging guys I trust

I feel that way hugging my boyfriend

Hugs don't make me feel that way

I don't like hugs :(

I used to have a crush on a friend of mine, we've flirted for like months, building sexual tension and it was all so naughty - but nothing ever happened and now he has a girlfriend and I don't really fancy him anymore. Our friendship got so much better, the chemistry between us is unique, se laugh so much together, he became sweeter with me and when we're talking (or, especially, texting) I can feel that he really appreciates me as a person.
Last week I had to skip school for 4 days and he texted me almost every afternoon. He admitted he missed me and I said "I want a hug when I get back!" and he replied "yes yes and a little kiss on the cheek ❤".

When I got back to school last Monday, I saw him and opened my arms in a insecure way (he's a little colder in person than he is when texting so I was careful) and he immediately pulled me in a tight hug. He rubbed his hands on my shoulders for a bit and just when I thought he forgot, he pressed me a big kiss on my cheek. I whispered "thank you" because I really enjoyed it and it made me realize how much he actually cares about me, after all. I'm not used at people being so sweet and kind to me... so yes, I felt safe, loved and happy.

[ElissaDido]

[ElissaDido]

Oh I was like that once but it's so easy. Sometimes you have to initiate hugging a guy friend but then usually he does it as a way of greetings or saying bye

[thewanderingme]

I love hugging, but something about the way you described it sounds more like a guy restraining a woman than hugging her

[4465loveyou5577]

Trust me, I know the difference between a malacious restraint and a loving embrace. The biggest difference is whether or not his arms are just wrapped around your body or around your arms as well. If he wraps his arms around my body I love the feeling but if he wraps them around my arms as well I feel restrained.

I love being hugged especially as my boyfriend is muscular and it feels so good. Makes me feel so safe feeling all his muscles bulging and rippling as we hug and kiss. It's like he could protect me from anyone. 😀

Very simple it makes me feel safe and protected, which woman doesn't want that, it's purely a feeling of being safe and protected.

[RedRobin]

It always makes me feel safe

[stillagoodgirl]

Never got hugged like that but it sounds nice

No. I like hugs but that's not the reason.
