Why do guys squeeze you tight when cuddling?

I'm just curious do all men do it. My new boyfriend constantly does it when we cuddle even when I'm a sleep I can feel him roll over and just squeeze me tight and then goes back to sleep. I do find it sweet even tho he crushes me sometimes 😂 Do you do it or are you a girl that does it? It's like a comfort thing?

  • I cuddle with my pillow at night and hold it close.(sometimes imagining it's a girl. I know.. pathetic 😔)

    Anyways, I often feel weak with a hint of anxiousness. At night I often have this mild tightness in my chest and by cuddling with my pillow and holding it feels like a release of pressure. It's releaving and helps me sleel.

    I'm not sure if it's the same for other guys tho. I don't normally talk about this shit with people.

    • Awwww. no seriously this is the cutest thing I've read all day. You deserve a girl with that kind of stuff. I hope you find one!

  • I don't know... I mean, why not? Cuddling is about closeness and security, is it not? About feeling connected? Pulling someone in closer, tighter, that just makes sense to me.

  • My boyfriend has never acted like this before. He was squeezing my hand so hard and all I could think of was "WTAF" I also just got off from a long day at work so I was in a pretty bad mood so that could be a part of why it seemed weird. He's VERY affectionate and I'm not so cuddling with him is like amazing for me I just feel claustrophobic and this is how it's always been for me.

  • Haha yes my boyfriend does it to me all the time.. when we sleep his one arm is always wrapped around me and he's like 180 and I'm 90 lbs so it's kinda hurting me but I love it and wouldn't trade it for the world. It means he loves you/ he's in love with you. Doesn't wanna let you go!

  • because it's SOOO CUUUUTEEE!!! :D
    id do that to him all the time. and id squish his cheeks. heck I'm like that with anyone or anything i perceive as adorable.

  • As a man who has a PhD in cuddling the answer is yes that it is a comfort thing. Sometimes its hard to feel close enough to the person so you just want to squeeze them and have that "stronger" contact. :)

    • Lol "PhD in cuddling" 😂

    • @Babybebe15 What can I say I LOVE cuddling. Its just such a low stakes and relaxed way to still be physical and endearing even compared to love making. It's a very nice degree to get! The classes and curriculum tend to be easy and come quite naturally. :)

    • Haha so cute!

  • No, I'm gonna say men who only express what they feel. Which isn't very men. He wants to feel your hot bod and wants you to feel secure and warm. He sounds sweet and heavy. Let me guess your 5'3 115 pounds? And he is 6 ft and weighs 180?

    • Darn lol and here I was saying I was the one with the doctorate in cuddling lol You go girl!

  • Not being sexist here even though it is going to sound that way, but women are not as strong as men.

    We hug you the way we want to be hugged.

    • You want to be squeezed?

    • @ScarletteFox_Red It gives you a feeling of security and being wanted and liked. Some guys may not admit it, but we do have feelings too.

    • Then I'll squeeze the air right out of my boyfriend next time I see him!!

  • It's all about comfort, and I know

  • To get ya to moan and hopefully out ya in the mood

  • Are you turned off by this? Him doing it is just a sign that he truly is into you. Is this another thing that a guy 'cant' do or he is deemed unattractive and gets dumped...

    • Nah girls love it, trust me. She even said she thought it was sweet.

  • how do you know if you're asleep?

    • Because he wakes me up when he does it.

    • fair enough...

  • probably doesn't realize his own strength

  • I don't know, I thought girls just like to be held tight.

    • We do!

    • Lol okay good to know :)

    • @scarlettefox_red

  • its a comfort thing

  • becuz girls like that ;)

    • coming from a girl who isn't big on being held close or tightly for too long I have to disagree.

  • to demonstrate their strength to you maybe?

  • My dad does that to the dog. It's just a way to hug

    • 😂😂😂
