Physical touch is so important. There is nothing a good, warm hug cannot cure. When you’re sitting on your couch overwhelmed with the idea of life, the embraced of a loved one offers a sense of stability and security that you’re not alone in this world and that there’s nothing that you cannot do.
This tweet is striking a chord with twitteratis for all the right reasons.
i held this man for an hour in bed close to my boobs and when i came back home he called me n straight up started crying telling me how after 8 years for the first time in his life he felt safe and wanted. i just hated the fact that in 8 fucking years nobody held him properly

We all need to feel love, warmth, and affection. We’re all struggling with life. And this tweet becomes a reminder for us to go back and hug our family and friends and let them know we’re there.
you guys need to hug each other more often. im a v physically affectionate person and i need my dose of 8 hugs a day or I’ll proly kms. i still do h8 men but isn’t ur masculinity making u h8 yourself.

And it’s so sad to see so many guys relate with this.
Guys hide everything . We don’t know how to express . And are very under complimented and are shown less care and affection on .

We all guys have experienced the same at one point in our life. And some are still searching for that "good 'ol slow hug" from a loved one.

so accurate, I love hugs but it’s been 4+ years since a full and affectionate one.. doesn’t even matter if it’s from a partner but just someone who cares for real

Who doesn’t like to feel loved?
That's so many of us. I legit cried when my first boyfriend held my hand. So warm and gentle and so protective. Never felt that way again.

This is the ONLY thing I want. NOTHING ELSE.

Not just hugs but guys are so under complimented, everytime i compliment a guy he compliments me back because he doesn’t know how to accept

Desire to feel love and affection is a basic human need. Everybody needs it regardless of their gender.
Being loved & wanted is a huge thing, no matter the gender, everyone shall agree!!

Whenever I am walking or something, I love to hold arms, mostly I do that with my closest friends, or my mother and brother. It feels so comfortable and I really hope my future partner loves holding arms as well.

It’s not about masculinity in it, it’s the person you feel safe with. Home is not a place it’s a person and I mean it when I say it, when I hug that specific person i feel safest than I ever have in my entire life. I don’t even feel that safe at my home ngl

There's only 2 days a year we get hugs, on Eids.

When was the last time you hugged someone? If it’s been a while, why not do it now?
