Search Results: affectionate men

I''ve had the Hallmark Channel (W Network here in Canada) on all day, watching Christmas movies in the background. They're pretty, heartfelt (yes, a bit too sappy sometimes too), and always end well. Lots of themes about loss and love.

Anyway, even with the volume on mute I can often kind of tell what's going on in the plot. These two characters, man and a woman working together on some business project (whatever, not important), just gave each other a hug and there was a camera on each of them, cutting to their different reactions. It was obvious they both have feelings for each other but haven't expressed it openly yet (they'll end up together, don't you worry), so the hug was long, lingering, but also kind of sad. They clearly did not want to say goodbye.

And it got me to thinking. Do you think the world is missing more hugs? Or are they too abundant already/insincere? And does it matter if it's the same gender, or opposite?
(IGNORE COVID. Who wants to talk about that again. Pretend we're living not in a time of Covid.)
Do you want more hugs, or do you prefer your personal space?

I'm very affectionate with people I'm close to. But I don't like hugging complete strangers as a greeting. I would hug some people I've been talking to online, if I ever met them in person. I've even dreamt about that.

NATIONAL HUGGING DAY is - January 21, 2021

So to start my boyfriend and I are in a long distance relationship. He has been a lot less affectionate the past couple weeks, and really stopped showing me that I matter to him altogether. He still says I love you but that’s only when I say it first and I don’t know if that’s just how he is and if i should lower my expectations. The other day he had oysters for dinner and sent me a screenshot of him googling what oysters do to men for sex (just a brief explanation from google) which i didn’t think much about at all and just thought he was flirting. But then I realized that he took that screenshot almost half an hour before sending it to me. This hasn’t been the first time he’s made me question if he’s seeing someone else but whenever i ask he gets really offensive and makes it seem like i’m the bad one while he continues to avoid and deny the question. I really need help on what I should do and any opinions will be really appreciated!!

I've noticed that men are more likely to have female dogs whereas women usually have males.
I guess I live up to my theory because I generally prefer male dogs because they're so dramatic, energetic, affectionate, and a little dumb. 😂 Basically like having an actual son.
