Do you get your 4 hugs a day?

[Anonymous]

Its said that hugs help avoid anxiety and depression and they say 4 hugs a day helps a lot with that, so I wonder how many people do and don't get their 4 daily hugs ha

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

"Its said that hugs help avoid anxiety and depression"

That's such a terribly awkward way to talk about affection. Not your fault though, I just feel bad by reading this sentence lol. Hugging is not made to avoid anxiety, depression or any other clinical terms. It's not a freaking tool ! 🫤

HUGGING IS JUST THE MOST NATURAL THING IN THE WORLD FOR HUMANS !

However, some cultures and societies are working hard to make us forget the most basic things in life. That's another problem.

A gigantic one.

[Asker]

That doesn't change that it helps, something that helps doesn't have to be seen as a tool, we eat cause we have too to survive, nobody sees it as a tool, the only one that sees it that way must be you 😂

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

... All right, then elaboration: I'm saying that because I am, well, philosophically allergic to pragmatism applied to anything sensory, to anything psychological, to anything perception related. And I see a trend, sort of "pragmatification" of the world, taking so much space in speeches and views, on any topic possible. You know, this idea that everything in life has to be function based, performing a task.

As if we wanted the world to be simplified, governed by mechanics, portraying people as sentient machines. This philosophy, this view on life is trending, really a lot, because we live in a world attracted to fixing things, optimizing, upgrading and min-maxing every areas of life.

I find this absurd, soulless and dehumanizing. Hence my reaction, based on a lot of prior thoughts I didn't explain. Now I did :)

[Dongie]

That's bullshit. I do my best to go hug-less everyday.

[Asker]

Purposely not hugging is quite a miserable way to live 😂

[Dongie]

Not from my perspective. 🤓

[Booboolove69]

Right on 😃

[PrettyCrumblBb]

@dongie don't u hug ur dog?

[Dongie]

Yes, I love Cece every day. She's different, tho.

[Booboolove69]

I wish I was Cece 💕🤗

[Dongie]

Hah, 🥰 Cece is the boss!

[midnightmoon05]

I give out lots of hugs to my students… it’s free and comforting.
some don’t get hugs from their parents… some don’t see their parents.

when I get home I hug my kids and hubby.

[Asker]

Wealthy on hugs I see 😂

[alice55]

It been months I haven't had a hug. It's not a things in my family

[Asker]

Why not? You are Alice in wonderland 🫠

[Booboolove69]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[alice55]

I guess it’s just cause i don’t ask cause i asked my mother for a hug after seeing your question and she gave me one 👍
I guess I just need to initiate it cause my family just isn’t into skinship 🤷‍♀️

[Asker]

That's one, 3 more to go 🫠

[alice55]

Well I might need to hug a pillow to get my free hug 😹

[Asker]

Pillow? Here are your three hugs 🤗🤗🤗

No need to waste your hugs on a pillow 😂

[Apple1996]

Yeah mostly from my kids

[Asker]

Its good for their health, you know what they say, an apple day keeps the doctor away 😂

[Apple1996]

Lol yeah the only thing is when hugging boys/men they need longer hugs to produce oxytocin so I always keep that in mind and give them long hugs

[Asker]

You seem to be more informed on this than me, the apple knows exactly how to keep the doctor away its wild

[Valdemort]

Not always, but I usually greet people by hugging them- so mostly, I think.

[Asker]

I think they gotta be 5 to 10 seconds but I'm not sure

[Dnice1]

Monday through Friday I am greeted with many hugs by the kids I work with

[Asker]

That's good repunzel 😆

[Dnice1]

Thanks mento 😊

[Asker]

And you better get hugs, all those depressing posts you posting are starting to look suspicious lol

[LiaRaven]

Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣
I am a drama queen lol

[Asker]

I'm realizing that, when you stub your toe you probably put your hand over your forehead and scream before fainting in slow motion 😆

[MemeSupreme]

no

hugs give cooties

[Asker]

So you are a cringe generator and you are scared of cooties😂

[MemeSupreme]

it's what i tell people when they wanna hug me bc i HATE hugs

but people will force that shit on you anyway lol

[Asker]

Someone should torture you with a hug that never ends 😂

[Asker]

Literally hug you to death 😂

[MemeSupreme]

i would BITE their neck, severing their carotid artery and watch them bleed to death

[Asker]

No you won't , I'll tell them to put a muzzle on you 😂

[MemeSupreme]

before the hug i'd have one?

good luck bc i got LONG gazelle legs so i could just outrun anyone

[Asker]

Stop trying to escape the endless hug momo 😂

[MemeSupreme]

I WILL BITE MY OWN TONGUE AND BLEED TO DEATH

HOW ABOUT THAT

[Asker]

Gotta give you some kind of things that will prevent that then 😂

[MemeSupreme]

did you just watch kingdom of heaven lol

whats the new pfp

[Asker]

Its my farewell photo, I was thinking of leaving soon so I'ma rock this for a while 😂

[MemeSupreme]

why not just take a break and then come back whenever you feel like it

it's what i used to do

[Asker]

That's what I was planning but I'd just be back the next day when I reach a moment when I'm bored so I think I'ma force myself 😂

[MemeSupreme]

just force yourself to not get back on here for a while lol

delete the app

[Asker]

Lmao yea but then I might end up logging in through Google or something, I'ma try and if I fail I'ma blame you

[Booboolove69]

I don’t get any hugs unless I ask

[Asker]

Your partner doesn't hug you?

[Booboolove69]

Sometimes, but definitely if I ask

[Asker]

Okay but you get em, you made it seem like you didn't get any and you dont ask either 😂

[Booboolove69]

I don’t get as many as I’d like to get it. Let’s just put it that way.

[Asker]

If you asked you would tho 👀

[Booboolove69]

Yes, I would

[YourExLover69]

Mostly I get handshakes a lot daily 😂

Few of my colleagues warmly hug me too but they are my male colleagues 😂

[red-lipstick-girl]

[PrettyCrumblBb]

[Asker]

I think they are, why else would they bee so pinchable lol

[PrettyCrumblBb]

[Asker]

Exactly, another word for that is pinchable lol

[PrettyCrumblBb]

What if I remove my facial fat? Not pinchable anymore 😂

[Asker]

I will feed you more cookies to restore the pinchable cheeks 😂
