There are many types of hugs. For your reading enjoyment, I've listed a few, with descriptions!
"Side Hug" - Appropriate for youth groups, opposite-sex pals, and group photos. You know the drill.. stand side to side with someone and put one arm around the other person's waist. I have the unfortunate habit of being what I call a "side-hug leaner" which means I always somehow end up with my head resting on the other person's shoulder. This can cause all sorts of awkwardness if not properly administered.
"Bear Hug" - Another friendly hug, both arms thrown around the other person in abandon. It's like joy embodied in an action. Works well for soldiers coming home from war or anyone stepping off of an airplane.
"Mama Bird Hug" - This is the one groups of girlfriends give each other. You kinda wrap your arms lightly around the other person like you're cradling an egg. You can add a shoulder pat if you want. The key is to be delicate.
"Bro Hug" - This one must be very carefully done in order to preserve the full measure of manliness of the person(s) giving the hug. One arm around the back at shoulder level, slap the back a time or two. Only lean in from the waist, and don't lean in too much.. this is very essential to giving a proper bro hug.
The "I've Got My Hands Full" hug - It's when you kinda prod someone with your elbow when they try to hug you, because you do want to hug them back but you've got your hands full. It still counts as a hug cause your heart is in it.
And of course, the "Bow Chicka Bow Wow Hug" - Definitely an opposite-sex type of hug. The girl's arms around the guys neck, the guy hugging the girls waist... and so on. WARNING: may lead to... other things. Use with caution.
I suggest immediately locating someone and trying out a hug on them. It's therapeutic. I'm pretty sure hugs cause rainbows to show up and bunnies to hop by. Try it. You won't be disappointed..
Yes please!
