It's why I dislike that Irish people hug now. I go for a handshake or an air kiss. I feel like I'm being pinned when I'm hugged.


Frankly, I'm not actually all that comfortable with hugs these days myself.

I had to be held down a lot as a kid when they didn't know I was manic depressive. My great-grandmother was convinced I was possessed at one stage. Funny now, really, but I've never been comfortable being held since.

If I'm not mistaken he's trying to find his true self and he thinks his time here is over. :(

This is the second time he's said he's leaving. Maybe I'll set up a betting pool.

Understandable. I used to be a hug addict like '05-'06-ish, but since then it's become increasingly uncomfortable.

I can give you a pat on the head in France instead.

If you don't mind my asking, is there a particular reason why hugging would start to feel uncomfortable? I find it sad that such a heart-warming gesture can turn into something uncomfortable. :(

Maybe I was making a joke?

But I would prefer a hug from my girlfriend instead of some old woman who saw me once when I was a baby.
