@CherryBomb Big giggle.
It's not actually that I hate hugs...it's just that I'm very selective in who I let hug me. I super love getting hugged by safe people (my inside tells me when someone is a safe person). @Former-Member is on my list. I don't really understand it. It doesn't seem to have much to do with how much I like someone, my inside just tells me. I THINK maybe I feel super smothered when someone hugs me without asking. I think Lunar made it onto my list because she is a sea turtle and when I'm struggling, she will swim close by...but not too close. And thus it feels safe to ask her for a teeny tiny turtle hug sometimes.
