4. ‘Am I grabbing her too tight?’ – Urmm… We actually love tight hugs!

Pankaj Parashar says…

1. Where should my arms go? Under her shoulders or over the shoulders? If I’m sweating profusely then I should possibly go for the under-arm action.

2. Where should my hands rest? On her mid-back? I can feel the clasp. Somewhere else? I can still feel her bra. I should probably keep my hands floating.

3. Am I grabbing her too tight? I can feel her boobs squashing against my chest. Does this make her feel uncomfortable? Should I back off?

4. How long is long enough? Who makes the move first to un-hug? Is her heart beating too fast? I can probably count her heartbeat on my fingers.

5. Wow! Her hair smells so nice! Her body? Maybe not so much. Is my body odor making her feel obnoxious? Are we being watched?

5. ‘The guy feels strong and protective.’ – Aww… That’s so sweet!

Anonymous says…

1. Boobs! The best thing about a hug, and right at the top of the list, is feeling the girls boobs. It does not matter who she is or even how big her boobs are. They are boobs. And that feels great.

2. How small, soft and weak the girl is to the guy. A weird one, sure, but the guy feels how delicate the girl is to him. The guy will think such thoughts as ‘wow, I could crush her’ or ‘gosh, she is so light’ and so forth. (not in a bad way, guys are not mad dog killer…lol). And the way he can wrap his arms all the way around her much smaller form.

3. The guy feels strong and protective. He the guy is hugging the smaller girl and offering her warmth and comfort and protection. The guy feels like a ‘shield’ that protects her

4. The guy smells her hair. After all he does not get much choice as the girl’s head is just below his nose level. And guys like how girls smell.

6. ‘Why is she touching my…’ – Hahaha! We’re sure that’s not on purpose, though!

Rayan Sabinus says… Throughout my entire hugging experience, only these thoughts have entered my mind.

1. Her breasts are pushed against my chest

2. Whoa! Her breasts are as soft as pillows, I feel like I could sleep on them… I mean nothing. Just hugging.

3. Am I hugging too hard?

4. Am I not hugging hard enough?

5. Ummm…what kind of hug am I trying to do?

6. Am I hugging for too long?

7. Should I stop hugging now? Does she want me to stop?

8. Why is she touching my… OH MY THAT FEELS GOOD!

7. ‘I just can’t have enough of her…’ – Being hugged by the person you love is seriously the best feeling ever!

Anonymous says… When I hug my girlfriend, it makes me feel relieved and complete and also makes me restless. That’s because I’m so close to her, yet I want to be closer. I just can’t have enough of her. I can’t contain the love and attraction I feel towards her. It needs release. I literally want to squeeze her so hard (which I do, but not as hard as I’d like to – or I might actually end up suffocating her). I never want to let go.

Also, I LOVE the feeling of her boobs squashing against my chest. Instant boner.

8. ‘What can I do to keep this hug forever?’ – Okay, we didn’t know guys have such sweet thoughts!

4. Stay as close as you are comfortable.

5. Let me sense your heartbeat.

6. What can I do to keep this hug forever?
