I know right?

It's too rare. Doesn't help that it takes me ages to become comfortable enough for even casual touching.

I'm lucky though, I'm close with my siblings to the point that hugs never feel out of place, but I don't get to see em nearly as often as I'd like in adult life.

I want to be able to trust someone enough to allow them to give me a hug. 🫠

That yearning sense of isolation never leaves. You could be hugged everyday. Doesn't matter.
