Maybe it's just because I squeeze people pretty good when I go to hug them so they don't really have an option of not hugging me back. Haha! :) I hope things are going good in Cali! Keep posting so that we know what's going on in your life, please! :)Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01691955874642378732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2544825424320715470.post-86796993698473202282011-05-06T13:35:25.449-07:002011-05-06T13:35:25.449-07:00Yep, I can confirm this an issue for Hannah. I no...Yep, I can confirm this an issue for Hannah. I noticed it last week. Sarah's hug was just great, but Hannah's was, well, ....Aaaawkward! I used to have this issue when I worried about appearing too friendly/affectionate...spending some time with friends/family from Hawaii helped me get over it which makes me think it is more of a cultural thing. As for Sarah's analogy (via Bytheway): Is a friendly smile of less value when I greet strangers? I would think not! It's contagious!Jay Flynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13827865573835754186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2544825424320715470.post-26886014567976128842011-05-05T20:59:54.942-07:002011-05-05T20:59:54.942-07:00Wow!

Yeah, I'm pretty similar--I mean I can give an ok hug to someone I like--but to a stranger/someone you just met or even just a friend--what's wrong with a handshake?... I mean, if you give out hugs like free samples at a grocery store--what are they worth? As much as free samples at a grocery store j/k :)Sarah and Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08231955727827122042noreply@blogger.com
