[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 years ago* (2 children) Bro, I would do anything for long, deep hugs. I am unlucky enough to never have been hugged by anyone. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] SIGSEGV@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 years ago (1 child) That's so sad. I'd give you a hug, buddy! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 years ago Thank you so much. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Osirus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 years ago (2 children) How is that even possible. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Default_Defect@midwest.social 10 points 3 years ago Easily possible. Grow up somewhere with a lot of macho man mentality with a toxic masculine father figure that wants nothing more than for you to grow up to be their clone that only like MAN stuff. Took me over 30 years to be hugged the way I didn't know i needed to be hugged because I fell into a friendship with a woman that knew a few broken men. permalink fedilink source parent [–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 years ago (1 child) I don't have any answer.

Well I'm sorry, if you lived in the US in a state that we frequent, I would get you a few hugs. Maybe you should just make a sign that says free hugs and stand in the middle of a public area.
