@HelloRio888
Sending virtual hugs~ to you Rio, while i am still mindfully present before i get knocked out due to induced nausea/coma.
@HelloRio888
Hello Rio,
I am with you on this. I am a hugger and touchy person and I miss hugs and hugging too! We will get to hug our friends/ loved ones again soon. This is a temporary situation to keep us safe. Think how it will feel to hug once this is over. Close your eyes and go thru the motions, I bet you will get a smile on your face!
@Teresa416 - yup, a smile on your face and tears in your eyes! <3 I am so definitely a 'hugger' too.
I was asking someone else what she will want to do first when stuff opens again ... when the outside of your own home is "safe" again. I meant like something big - oh I don't know a dinner party for 20 at fancy restaurant where they all wear their formal attire that they didn't get to wear for prom(canceled). Or rent out the bowling alley for open bowl from like 10pm til 2am and invite like everyone 100+ people at least.
I think perhaps you've nailed it on the head for me though. I might answer: 1. Be sure I have enough gas and 2. Drive around to my friends' houses or work place IN ORDER TO like for zero other reason than to give friend/family, most favorite gas station attendant or grocery cashier (although I don't think I have one of those) -- to give each one a hug! a real hug. a "I've missed you! for it's been long and longer" hug. <3 Platy
I could use a hug or seven. I could use a shoulder or lap to rest my head on. I am very tired and yet this something wants to keep me from sleeping. Part of PTSD maybe. ~ Platy
Plus I could really use some physical contact - person to person!
@cyanPlatypus6370
It must be so throbbling that you can even type your needs in clear than falling asleep.
I cant give so many hugs, nor physical shoulders.
But virtually, I can send my hopes for you to get your rest soon.
Take care Platy.
@cyanPlatypus637
I hear you and feel you, I feel the same way. Tell yourself that this is a temporary situation and we will be able to hug everyone we love very soon. We need to keep ourselves safe to get to that point.❤
@Teresa416 - Yes - big sad face. We do need to keep ourselves (and others!) safe until "It's Safe" again. The hardest part for me, I think, is the waiting ..... and the unknown - when shall this craziness of not being able to hug people - even my family? when shall this end???? Do I have to wait 'til Christmas!?
I have just found a second way though ... The first is a coupon for "Free Hug" (never expires, I think it may also say 'reusable') that I found here at 7cups somewhere. The second I've sort of just come up with now. It's a graphic of a little bear giving himself a hug. It says, "A great big hug!" I can fit nine on one page. I shall print maybe just one page first. Then cut them apart and probably glue to a 3x5 or 4x6 index card. On the reverse, I'll write 'From me To you' or the person's name if I know who I want to give it to.
So, yes, @Teresa, stay healthy, stay home, hug not thy dear friends :P , and yes sometime "soon" this will all be but a distant memory. (For me, I'd like that soon to be VERY short!) <3 Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370 Hugs, Platy! I can relate to being very tired but not able to go to sleep.
I know it's not the same as physical contact, but hugging a stuffed animal, especially when I'm falling asleep, helps me.
@lovingBanana5204 - You are right, it's not the same feeling, but it does seem to help somehow. There have been a couple times that I will bring "all" stuffed ones to bed for comfort and sleeping. That would be at least 4, maybe 5. E.B. is not tucked in with the covers turned down as I do sometimes. But he rests and waits very patiently (and very quietly! but then he IS a rabbit haha) for me to come and "get thyself to bed, Platy!" ... "Like now! I mean it!" (sigh) I feel lots tired again now, but guess what? I got a true, "I love you and I want you to be okay" hug in person today. My friendC ... I'm unsure if she knows how much her hugs have meant to me, in the last 3-ish months. I love you too, dear friend! Thank you for your words of support @Banana. I hope you have a super weekend! ~ Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370 Being all snuggled up in bed with lots of stuffed animals sounds lovely. :) Yayyy, I'm so glad you got a real hug!!! So happy for you!
Thank you, I hope you have a great weekend, too! :)
@cyanPlatypus6370
I hear you loud and clear! I am a hugger and feel the loss every week that goes by. I try to use my words (it doesn't make up for an actual hug but it helps) and let my friends, family, etc....that I care for them and tell them to stay safe!
Oh no, hugs page looks inactive aaaaaaah.
SENDING OUT HUGS TO EVERYBODY!!! Have a great day!!!!
*Tight hugs, squeeze*
@tealBear2472 Aww, thank you, I needed it
Hugs back to you!

Octopus hugs fore everyone🐙
Octopus hugs 🐙 as I used to sayin old times....
@GreenAndRedBoat - Whoa, hold the phone! You know about Octopus hugs too?! (quickly looks both directions) (whispers... How do you know about Octo hugs?! :)
Anyone who is reading this? According to Platy, Octopus hugs are pretty awesome! (Love you, friend! I hope you are well. <3 ) ~ Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370
Love you too my friend ❤
It was my saying back in old times 😶....
@GreenAndRedBoat - ah that's cool. It is an 'inside thing' with another member and myself. That is why I was like, "wait YOU know about Octopus hugs too!!!??" :) Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370
Coincidences....when we think are priginal, another one has the same idea😊
Hi RedGreen,
I tried to look up the word "priginal," for meaning mostly. But I was unable to find it at all. Would you check your spelling for me? I seem to have gathered what you meant via context but I'm still rather unsure. Or, maybe did you mean to type "Original" ah, that could be. You did a fine job of confusing me though! ~ Platy
My friend and I were not trying to be original - it just fit for us at the time. You may gather or give out all the Octopus Hugs you like :) Platy
Asking for a hug, please! I haven't been here for a year or two maybe. Am feeling extremely emotional rn. Haha
@Claito A hug for you. Your emotions are valid.
@Claito

@bestWater6128
