Ask Spoons about hugging
I also am not really a hugger. Not with my bloke pals or strangers anyway.
anyone ever get the man bear hug before?
story for you...
I'm at a club about 5 years back,... and all a sudden, this big black chick comes up to me, she looks like a freaking gorilla, hairy arms, hair on the back of her neck.... just gross.... she says
"I just want to let you know, that you are a beautiful hunk of man"
I'm like thanks. she then offers to buy me a drink, whcih I accept due to me being a poor college kid. I grab the drink, and am about to leave when she goes
"you ain't leaving without me getting a hug"
To which she wraps her arms all the way around me and lifts me up, shaking me up and down as her grip get's tighter...
I'm a decent sized dude, 6'-3" and around a solid 220lbs... and she picked me up like I was a rag doll...
maybe she was a man?
Oh yes. That's the type of thing you'll tell people about your school.I went to a Christian middle-school and we were forbidden from hugging.![]()
Looks like someone with the initials M.W. needs a big fat man-hug!Any chance we could tone the creepy down on this thread a couple of notches?
Okay... one thing that I just don't get, and has always made me feel a little "akward" is hugging.... now, I don't mean like hugging your dad, child, or sig. other, that's fine... it's this whole younger culture that seems to like to hug, or touch bodies as a gesture of "hello" or "goodbye".
Whatever happened to the handshake? Or a quick wave of "hello" with the hand?
Why is it, then when I see someone I know at a bar, they have to grab my hand, pull my in, but our chests together, and slap each other on the back? Or, when I meet a girl for the first time, when we say our goodbyes, we have to hug?
I got the wierdest looks the other night, when I met some of my friends "other" friends, and when I left, one of the girls tried to give me a hug, and I took a step back... everyone basically had this "what's his problem" look on their face... I even said "I'm not a hugger" to which she said "I am" and then pulled me in for a hug?
Maybe I'm just strange, but I just getted wierded out be this..... but hey, atleast the fist bump seems to be fading out.... lol...
You seem very social to me, ETM.
