It's okay, it's cute. I've been hugged by my dude friend after I fell haha. And it felt really nice and comforting. I guess he felt awkward later but it didn't matter to me. Although, I guess it also depends cause some people don't like hugs from anyone and some do.

I’m used to exposure to cultures where people touch a lot, so I’m not as stringent. I do evaluate each case, however - what do they do with other good friends, how do they act in general etc. I mean there is a difference between getting a hug from someone who is starting to feel like a brother and someone I barely know who hangs on too long and grabs strangely.
I would say if it feels natural go ahead but you should probably ask “do you mind if I hug you?” Just in case. I also don’t just grab people unless I’ve asked or I see it happening as a social convention.There is no problem unless you give a small hug and for short period not like you got separated for like 10 years and have been missing her badly and hug her tightly like she is going to squash. A small hug is considered as a friendly hug. And yes it depends on the your friend and her thinking too. Not all girls think hugs are friendly even from a male. For me I don't mind it as I love hugs and cuddles too.
As a female who isn't huge into hugs unless I know someone well or haven't seen them in years. I would ask if it's a girl is comfortable with a hug, not just go for it.
Personally I don't mind AS LONG AS it's a close guy friend and it totally platonic. But some people don't like touching
in general so it's really depends on the girl...I have lots of close male friends and there is no confusion on where relationships stand. Yes, we occasionally hug.
Haha no man initiates a lot of contact with his female friends. If you keep hugging and touching each other , you both will no longer be friends. An occasional distant hug is acceptable but I’ve never ever seen a man constantly touching his female friends.
I'm happy to give our guy friends hugs. I'm just a hug person in general though. I'll take or give, doesn't matter.
It depends on the friend and how close I am to him. Personally feel a little awkward with hugs over all lol, but most close friends its still nice to get a hug regardless of their gender
I love getting hugs in general, especially if it's from a good friend. I know some girls don't like physical contact though, so I think it depends on the girl.
I don't know, I normally let them initiate it, at least for the first time.
I wander if I hug one of them tight and squeeze her if she thinks I am interested in her more than friends or not though? Even though I am never the one to initiate the hugs.Hugs are only for family or a man that I’m dating. I don’t give my male associates a hug.
of coarse its ok! someone has to initiate it or it wouldn't ever happen! whether ur male or female just ask if you can give the person a hug first.. then u got nothin to worry about.
It's totally fine to hug a female friend (unless she generally doesn't like being touched). I'm a touchy feely person so I like hugs no matter which gender they come from. 😊
between friends, hug initiations are no big deal. no intent except for a friendly gesture. i have done it with women and women have done it with me even with my girlfriend standing beside me.
No I hate that. Pls don't unless you know it's OK especially with Muslim women
Here are my answers. Take your fucking pick.
A. I feel you'll soon be facing accusatory rape allegations from an angry Karen that you'll later end up marrying.
B. I feel you'll be receiving the best head you'll ever get from a chubby Betty.
C. I like pie... and condoms.Hugs can be totally none sexual. Having a hug etc with someone is just normal.
even a kiss under mistletoe is Normal this time of the year.Doesn’t really matter as long as it’s brief and your hands dont touch bits. Hug your friends no matter their gender.
As long as we're mates I don't mind at all as I love hugs.
I don’t have this problem because I don’t have or want women friends. Some have tried to befriend me but I pass. I’m good on doing favors and stuff for someone I’m not dating. That’s basically all women friends use their guy friends for anyways.
