Speak for yourself
Give me belly rubs and head pats when welcoming me into your home, damn it! 🥺
You got it 🫳🐺
Instance checks out.
What's this we shit?
I snuggle every motherfucker I can get my arms around. I will snuggle the shit out of you
Please.
aggressively warm and hairy snuggling begins
Get me a fan or air conditioning, for survival, and I'm in
Hey, wanna go frolicking later? I found this meadow I haven't tried yet.
Turn it into the frolicking pit, get all hard fucking core with the frolicking. Be a couple of happy, smiling, frolicking motherfuckers up in the woods!
I'm not, and now I want to
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Oh hello! Hellooo! Whose the best one of all the ones??? Whose the best one?? IT'S YOU!!!! YOU ARE!!!
This part would be cool, tell everyone they're a good person and some of them might actually improve. But I draw the line at letting them drool on me.
This is basically how we greet each other at my men’s group
Belly rubs all around?
Lots of scritches
Listen, I understand why you’d feel that way as a modern human, but why are you glad we, as a potently social species, don’t engage in such simple bonding rituals?
We kill each other too often.
May I sniff your butt though?
You don't?
I don't snuggle strange animals, or even my friend's pets, unless they ask for it. I treat humans the same way. My cats get snuggles; so does my wife. I give my family about the same amount of hugs as I do their pets. My sister's dog asks for head skritches; if my sister asked for them, I'd probably give them to her.
But, no: I don't go around molesting other people's pets unsolicited. Nor people.
I would if I had someone. But for now I just give my cat the big squeeze and smooch her head.
this entire thread made me question my understanding of the word snuggle, so i looked it up. nope it agreed with me. snuggling is like cuddling.
maybe the definition has evolved recently?
snuggling has nothing to do scritches and positive words etc.
Sorry...i meant general expressions of affection and reactions to cuteness. Will edit.
The world would be a happier place if everyone did.
Be a lot more people walking around with hickies
