sorta same boat. i have to ask everyone for hugs. nobody just HUGS me, for no reason other than the fact that they wanted to. and it's so... so exhausting, always being the one to initiate hugs or cuddles or kisses. it almost makes one feel like they aren't desired in any way other than a handshake/hello combo.

::shakes head:: ... well, i know it's not quite the same, but for what it's worth, the virtual me is snugglin' up to ya with the new down comforter and we're so COMPLETELY going to watch a movie. you pick first -- ^__~
