Yeah... I don't hug random strangers... I normally must have known the person @ least for a couple of days b4 i'll hug them... (Like @ camps etc lol)
but yeah, I've always wondered, and I'm not sure if I've posted it b4, but do any of y'all tend to hug differnet people differently? Like I said above, I hug guys I like, like 2 seconds longer than normal, but like girls, do you hug people differently, and guys, how do you hug girls you like, especially if you actually do respect them??

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

With other guys I usually just give them a handshake, but if we ever hug it's usually a man-hug, which I found the definition of on Wikipedia.

With girls I just give a normal hug but only for a couple seconds, and I hardly ever hug somebody except on big occasions, like dances or birthdays or such.

haha i love what emilyjanelle said about handshakes.................thats lyk xactly how i feel about it 2. when the guy lyk comes up to u and everything its just lyka majr turn-on and a big confidence booster.it makes me feel really special.
btw, w/ the whole hugging thing, besides my family, i only hug the guy i lyk. thats it. maybe if a guy friend hu8gs me ill hug him back but thats it.

ok another question for the guys, but u girls can answer too:
im wondering if the guy i like hugs me, which he usually does, if i want to hug him longer, do i keep hugging him? lyk if i want to make him feel better about something or just remind him how much he means to me, does it creep guys out to have the girl they like initiate a longer hug by holding on longer?

Well...I hug all my friends. Guys and girls alike. Except for the guy I like, because that would be way too...I don't know...Hard to explain.
But...I agree with side hugs. I only give real hugs when I'm proud of them, or they just won something, or if they are really, really sad.

OH! Yeah...God Bless! =D

I don't agree. Overanalzying would be far more specious and pointless. And I also don't agree that a hug is just a hug. Do you hug a close family member the same way as a complete stranger?

It is trifles that make the sum of life.

I'm not a huggy person, but I'm not exactly sure how to say hello to some of my friends, either!! I hug close girlfriends, but I always sort of muddle up hello's to my guy friends. It just seems awkward to shake their hand, but more awkward for me to hug them =]

Is there a third option that I anyone can point out for me?

High fives, or "hand hugs" (where you put your palms together and wrap your thumb around their hand)!!  I tend to give a lot of high fives/hand hugs to people, especially if they're a guy and I'm proud of them. Sometimes we develop a crazy-style hand shake dealio and do that randomly (then laugh histerically because we're so white). It's not too formal (like a handshake) but not too intimate (like a hug).
