How badly do you need a hug right now?

[just_a_potato]

I haven't genuinely hugged someone in a long time. Obviously I can't hug any of you, but pretend I'm giving each of you the biggest embrace. I hope you guys are doing ok, life has probably been hard lately. 💗

I really need a hug right now

A hug would be nice

I don't need a hug right now

I HATE hugs

[Jjpayne]

I don’t NEED it, but I would totally accept it. If I know you’re not a threat. Here’s how it goes...

You: Want me to hug you?

Me: Oh yes please

You: okay, come her-

Me: That’s what you think I’d say b*tch! *shoots*
Me: I downed a hostile. Fight alone, die quick.

I’m just kidding, don’t taka this personally

[just_a_potato]

I'm a potato, I can't hurt you

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Then what limbs are you using to hug people? Also, ever seen the memes with a similar format you just said? It always backfires.

[just_a_potato]

It doesn't matter how I hug you, the notable detail is that I'm a good hugger. Also no I haven't seen the meme your talking about. Maybe elaborate.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

The meme where it says:

*blank* isn’t real, they can’t hurt you

*blank*:

[Dinosaursandanime65]

And how would you hug me?

[just_a_potato]

Oh I see that meme, also I would grow hands silly. Potatoes adapt.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Like a Robonian?

[just_a_potato]

Yeah, yes, lets go with that 😎

[menina]

Fortunately I don't need a hug right now and to be honest I don't like them. Yeah, I know I'm weird Lol

[just_a_potato]

No no I totally get it

[menina]

Really? I'm glad you do.

[Anonymous]

I am very very sad! A hug would help me through the day right now!😭🤗

[just_a_potato]

AHHHH 💞

[Opinion Owner]

🤗🤗😭💞💞

[Sonorous]

Depends... How much will it cost?

[just_a_potato]

Your left kidney, deal?

[Sonorous]

Nice try, but I'm not falling for that again

[just_a_potato]

I- 😳

[Sonorous]

Would be embarrassing if I lost the second one to another vegetable

Most of the hugs I've gotten in the past year were goodbye bro-hugs. I would probably react to a friendly greeting-hug with confusion, panic, and anger until I realize those emotions were actually happiness and comfort the whole time.

[just_a_potato]

Many of the guys putting in an opinion seem to want more physical comfort which to be frank I didn't expect. A lot of tough guy acts is what I see. Hope you are having a good day 💗

[GnatSocks]

Of course, what's really screwed up is half of graduate students (I'm a grad student. That's why I know this) are depressed, and that's just the ones who admit to it, and this is before the pandemic. Expand it out and you have well over half the population depressed and just straight up struggling to make it through the day.

[just_a_potato]

I've had moderate depression most of my adolescence but someone always noticed me and tried to help even when I really don't want it, but a guy who is equal to me in this sense probably wouldn't get that same attention, and probably are just as stubborn as I. It's disheartening to see.

[GnatSocks]

Yeah, but no need to feel sad about it. We'll be all right, maybe have a good laugh when we need it, and maybe play a song or two as well. Take it easy, OP. We're all going to make it.

[Jean-Marie_Céline]

Thank you for this question. Although I'm not a big fan of physical touch, I consider myself lucky that I receive hugs from loved ones on a daily basis.

[just_a_potato]

Yup of course! I was like that also I'm not a really touchy person. People would hug me anyway. But I miss it now which is quite cliche.

[COMMODOREII]

Love hugs and cuddles. If you ever need hug my friend I'd give you a big teddy bear hug. 😄💞

[just_a_potato]

Awe you are always so wholesome 😂

[Hawner]

Oh, hi. May I order several of those hugs or there is a limit?

[just_a_potato]

It's only one for now to keep things appropriate, in a month though I give out unlimited hugs to everyone and anyone 😊

[MCheetah]

A hug would be nice right now. But only from an adult woman, since I like feeling boobs on me.

[just_a_potato]

Lol you be you sir 😂

[ChrisMaster69]

Was in similar boat, zero hugs, then last couple days toms of them.

so hugs for you.

they do connect us as people and prove how we are social and loving people

[beldath]

I haven't hugged anyone that's not my son in over three years. :(

[just_a_potato]

Stay strong buddy

[TallAnon]

Haven't touched another human in a year and my dad is getting tested for lung cancer tomorrow, sooo, yeah, would be nice.

[just_a_potato]

Wow I'm sorry I hope things trend upward from here. Take care of yourself 💜

[Leavesbound]

It's been years since I've been hugged.

I propose a National Hug Day for when we finally hear that the pandemic is over.

[_no_one_]

I might need one but these cramps won't let me enjoy even a hug lol

[just_a_potato]

On your man period? 😂

[_no_one_]

Uh yes it's called doing more exercise than your muscles could possibly take 🥱.
Not sure bout bleeding n stuff tho 🥶

[RJJ33666]

I am in desperate need for a hug. I swear, if the Devil offers to give me a hug, I would accept it happily.

[serious]

I totally dislike hugs and no, I don't need comfort from others as such. I am good at comforting myself.

[PaynefulPleasures]

Thank you I needed that but remember 6ft lmao 😂
Here's one for you 2 🤗 we need more kindness, understandment,& people like you 🤗💞

[FruitAndBlueEyes]

I could definitely use a long, everything will be ok hug.

[just_a_potato]

For what its worth I'm sure you will be ok 💖

[Diversity_Hire]

I don't need a hug, but I could use one. I'm tired of this world, and there is no escape from it.

[just_a_potato]

I'm on the same boat

[Diversity_Hire]

Oh I peel you.

[just_a_potato]

I don't know if I should laugh or quiver in fear, maybe both

[Diversity_Hire]

Both? I mean, I'm all about making you laugh and quiver, it's the fear that's unfortunate. 😂

[just_a_potato]

LOL alright ya dope 😂

[lucyloo76]

Strange how you miss the things you take for granted.

[ChefPapiChulo]

No. That would be wrong. You are 17 and someone’s daughter.

[just_a_potato]

Huh? It's just a hug I'm not baring your children just trying to make people feel better today mate 💀

[ChefPapiChulo]

i do not need a hug. No thanks

[just_a_potato]

Suit your self

[Daniel_Dano]

This might be strange but I have never hugged anyone in my entire life

[just_a_potato]

That is pretty strange not gonna lie

[Anonymous]

A lot, I need someone to hug me and tell me it's going to be okay, I'm just sort of overwhelmed rn

[just_a_potato]

Awww darling it's gonna be ok, I get how it feels to need kindness at a stressful point in your life.

[PaynefulPleasures]

Group hug ლ (´ ❥ `ლ)
