Long Term Hugging

Let’s just get one thing straight here, people. Snuggling, cuddling, and spooning are all completely different. I mean, they’re in the same ball park, here. But they’re basically sub categories of the whole type of move called “long term hugging.” Each one is special in its own way.
Now, this may be confusing at times. It may be strange. You may even say “What the hell is he rambling about?” But if at any time you feel these emotions, just close your eyes and the feeling should pass. Just forget everything you ever knew about anything, buddy.

First, my young apprentice, there’s cuddling. Now cuddling is defined clearly as “a hug that lasts all night.” You’re both facing the same way in this position. You’re equals. It’s basically like hugging, but… not standing up. You’re there with him or her (hey, I don’t judge people, I’m just educating) and you’re locked in a warm embrace. That, my friend, is cuddling. It’s just comfortable. And most importantly, it’s harmless.

All forms of “long term hugging” are, really. Sure, they’ll be the dissenters that try to lure you to the other side, saying “No, it’s not harmless. There’s something there.” It’s my duty to warn you of these naysayers. Bad people, these corrupted cuddlers are. It seems like they could all use a hug.

And then there was snuggling. Now this is just cuddling… evolved. One person is snuggled RIGHT UP INTO the other one. One’s just holding the other. All is well.

Which brings us to spooning. You ever see two spoons and how they fit together? That’s spooning. But with people. You’re both facing the same way. One arm… thrown right over the other person. Yeah, that’s nice.

And that’s it. You’ve been enlightened. Those are the basics. There could even be more types out there in the vast word of “long term hugging,” just waiting to be discovered.

So get to work. We’re all counting on you.
