Do your parents/guardians hug you?

[Shawna]

I am a 17 year old girl. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE hugging/getting hugs from my school friends. On the other hand, my mom wants a hug from me almost every day, but it makes me feel awkward. When I was younger, I CRAVED my mom's extra affection, but now, I just feel too old to be constantly held by my mom when I don't even want it. And she gets mad. Don't get me wrong, though. I LOVE my mom to death. It's just that I have my own ways of showing it.
I don't know if it's just me, but friend hugs are more "special" than mom hugs to me. Our parents (well, more or less) hug us all the time, but and once we get to a certain age (teen years, for me), we start clinging more to the hugs that we receive from our friends. We tend to think that "constant mommy cuddle sessions" get old after a certain amount of years. Unless you haven't seen your mom in a while, getting hugs from mom everyday makes you feel like a...baby. But with friends it's like a way to build/keep friendship, and that's an important feeling for someone my age.

So, let me ask you:
Do you parents/guardians still hug you even through you see them everyday?
Do you feel the same way as me?
Do you prefer hugs from friends, or from parents?

I hug my parents sometimes but not like every day

 

[Mariah]

Never. I don't think that's ever happened. I hate being touched anyway.

 

[helloxcutiee]

My mom hugs me everyday because she shows her love physically like that.

 

[Dae Min]

Yeah, my dad hugs me all the time. My mom's not really the hugging type.

My mom hugs me sometimes too.. and i cant remember when the last time my dad hugged me..

 

[timecapsule]

Literally every day.
Dad gets home? hug
Mom goes to bed? hug
Dad goes to bed? hug

It depends on the situation but we hug tons. It's become so normal I don't notice it, so I'm pretty sure I'll never get tired of hugging.

 

[Shawna]

Yeah, my dad hugs me all the time. My mom's not really the hugging type.

Hmm, with my parents, it's the other way around.

 

[tobi!]

No hugs whatsoever.

 

[BungoTheElf]

YES everyday I hug my mom everyday I love her alot

I mean I do hug my dad once in a (not really) while but mom hugs are just different idk
Wish I hugged my friends more often but it would be strange to hug them out of the blue plus pda rules at school lol

If your mom or dad wants a hug, just give it to them! Years from now when one or both are dead, you will be wondering why this was even a dilemna for you. . I speak from experience, there will come a time when the option is not there, and you will wish you had hugged them more.

My mom I hug pretty often because she is more affectionate plus she is pretty sad we're all growing up and leaving home soon.

My dad I rarely hug because he doesn't really like to show is affection but I know he still loves us and proves it by going to work everyday despite having a hard time.

 

[zeoli]

My dad and I hug a lot while I hug my mom more than she hugs me.
I'm a big hugger so I love giving hugs. However, it bugs me that my mom barely gives any unless I ask.

 

[Stil]

Yes

So, let me ask you:

Do you feel the same way as me?
Do you prefer hugs from friends, or from parents?

My parents do hug me but not as often as yours hug you I think. Also I don't see my mother everyday. When I visit her she usually hugs me once in terms of greeting and then once when I leave again. My dad hugs me sometimes but not everyday. More like every other week. He usually does that when I'm upset, we had a fight or he's proud or something like that.

Obviously I don't really feel the same as you since we don't hug that much :'D

I don't feel like hugs from friends are more special. I hug my best friends and one of them wants to cuddle all the time. I think I feel most comfortable being hugged by my boyfriend ^^
If I had to say whose hugs are the most important to me I'd say the ones given by my boyfriend, my father, my best friend and my little sister.

i hug my cat but she scratches me #unloved

Of course I let my mom hug me, she's my mother! I went through the teenage phase where I was embarrassed about being with my parents, and showing physical affection towards them. But then I grew up, because who really gives a **** what others think. If it makes your mom/dad happy then do it. I would do anything to hug my dad again, but he's gone. Appreciate your parents while you still have them, they won't be around forever.

Even if you don't like hugs, you should put aside your own feelings in order to make your parents happy. You think you're too old for hugs now? Wait until you move out, and barely see your parents. Then you'll go back to hugging them again! It's a funny cycle.

I hug my dog but she snarls at me. :[

I hug my parents every time I see them when I visit home. So usually I just hug them once right when I see them and then again when I'm leaving home.

We don't hug super often, but sometimes we'll hug again while I'm home but it won't be everyday. Sometimes we'll hug before going to bed but not always. I don't feel awkward hugging my parents, I guess it just doesn't happen that often.

i'm very huggy when it comes to my mom and sister, and hug the rest of my family whenever i see them. i don't really hug my friends that much. i'm not sure whose hugs i prefer, all hugs are good! mostly.
