Hugs, I Love To Give Them To Everyone.

[erocse]

I have given and have been given more hugs in this last couple of months than in my whole lifetime.

   I have always been the type, too afraid to show emotions. Plus I was afraid people would think of me as too feminine. So only people very close to me have gotten hugs from me. It is sad because there has been many times that I did want a hug or wanted to give one but I never allowed myself to do that. I know people and relatives have thought I was rude and inconsiderate because of this.

   I LOVE TO GIVE HUGS NOW !!!  I don't know maybe I am making up for lost time? I just love to give and get hugs, now. Not the wimpy kind either. The tight and long, really good feeling type. Sometimes I just have to go for seconds or thirds right in a row.

   It's funny what being happy with yourself can do for you.

    So when I put hugs at the bottom of my posts. Know that I truly mean it.

   I can't be with you all in person, but I want to give all my friends here at Susan's A BIG TIGHT HUG !! and to you out there that I haven't had the chance to meet, if you were here with me right now. I would give you the same big hug.

   Merry Christmas, Lot of Love and HUGS !!!! Roxy

I'm the same way Roxy. When I sign a post with hugs I really and truly mean it. Merry Christmas.
Hugs to you and Patty.

Prior to transition the only person who got hugs from me was Sevan.

I was not a touchy feely type. I hated everyone, why would I want to hug them?

That new avatar of yours Cynthia is pretty. I know whos house I want to go to for dinner.

   Hugs (and I mean it), Roxy

[cynthialee]

Why thank you. And yes my table is the place to dine. Before I became disabled I was a chef.


edit: oh yeah....Sevan makes my aprons.

[Janet_Girl]

Erocse, swing by here and we will both go give Little Suzy Homemaker ( ah ... Cynthia ) hugs in person.

Next time I am in Portland we must get togather for a coffee.

Well on the subject of hugs - I love them and cuddles too - at every available opportunity. I always have.

Meanwhile on the subject of food I think on the contrary that you should all come over to Cornwall and sample Alison's magnificent fare. She can't match Cynthia for qualifications I have no doubt... but I reckon she could still give her a run for her money on results...

How else do you think I got to be so ample curvy and cuddly? Before I met her I was slim.

...and then there is the fact that I too have been known to knock up the odd dish myself - like my famous chocolate cakes that Janet has drooled over on the webcam.

Hugs are great. I love to give them and recieve them too. Like Roxy said a great big tight hugs are the best.

Cynthia, Janet, Jenny, and Allison I imagine a party with all of us together would be great!! Cornwall sounds like a fun place to go too. Portland is beautiful too. Wish money was never a matter of concern and we all could just do it.

Janet & Cynthia we will all have to get together for coffee in Portland. Janet will have to bring LacyLynne even if it means dragging her out the front door. Ha ha. .

~Hugs~

Sounds like I need to make some social calls around dinner time. 
Roxy, it's always nice to hear how much you're opening up. 

[Donnie B.]

Unfortunately, I'm a bit lacking in the spontaneous hug department unless I know for certain that people won't freak when I give them hugs (I'm a very intimidating dude, apparently).

The friends that I hug and cuddle can contest though that I'm good at both. I love receiving them too as long as no one attempts to tackle me while hugging. XD

*hugs everyone in the immediate vicinity online since he isn't near anyone from this amazing forum right now*

[Cindy]

I never used to be a hugger, but now I am. Strange things the 'mones.

Hugs to all

I've always been a hugs sort, though had to temper it because society doesn't think men should be so expressive.

But the biggest hugs to Patsy and Roxy. Two of natures lovely people.

Agreed!

Hugs, Jennifer

[Susan Baum]

Huge Hugs to Roxy and Patty

   It's funny what being happy with yourself can do for you.

As a stodgy British friend of mine may say, "Quite."

Roxy, I'm happy for you, too. 

Patty, you are the best friend Roxy or any of us could ever have. 

Even More Hugs
Susan

As I've worked through self-acceptance over the last few years I've found myself more huggie as well. I'm not full time, nor do I go out en femme - but I am allowing myself to be a more authentic human being. I've found I'm not so afraid of crying anymore, I'm not afraid to show affection (like hugging) even to my guy friends.

I used to be so much more reserved about this, but I think starting to come to terms with who I am, and being willing to accept it (well, still working on total acceptance ) has really helped me open up and experience my feelings more. I'm not even on E yet.

I have always been a hugger but in the last few months the physical contact of a hug seems even much better!
