Am I the only one here who likes close physical contact with other living beings?

I Sperg

I found that whilst I don't like having close personal contact of any sort forced on me, I fundamentally enjoy close physical contact with another living being.

I Like "hugs", curling up with a cat on the sofa (or indeed in bed), getting into bed when there is someone else there. 

Yet here this forum seems chock full of people who do not seem to.

I was just wondering if there is anyone else who understands that fundamental sense of happiness and "rightness" I feel when I am close to another living breathing mammal. (I've no real experience of insects or reptiles. Although I can't think of any insect I'd want to cosy up next to...)

  • I find it extremely comforting to hug people and hold animals. But I only like to hug a few specific people i.e. siblings, mum, best friend. And only if I'm in the right mood. 

    I think the best animals to cuddle are cats. And chickens, and rabbits/hamsters/guinea pigs. Snakes are surprisingly nice (like a weighted blanket around your neck). Lizards are cool to look at but not as nice to hold.
