Author Admiral Thrawn Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 lynda; It is important that people differentiate between pleutonic hugs and romantic hugs, so they understand you dont have to have a relationship as a prerequsite of hugging people you may just like casually as a friend, or that a hug does not have to mean any romantic or sexual significance, or suggest that you really like the person. The real danger is when, every interaction, hug, is going to 'mean' something, that means you will do nothing, and end up in some sort of rut. The goal here, is to ensure that 'touch', in the doctrine of socialisation, is casual, no-strings attached, and does not mean anything in any significance of romantic interest or relationship. That way, you can be free to hug or intereact with anyone you like, without worrying she, or you are going to think that it 'means' something. The example you illustrated in your comic is obviously not a friend, and hugging strangers at random at any time was never advocated. Link to post Share on other sites

Sand&Water Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 I get this comic image of you standing looking at a woman, with an open book in your hand and a male friend by your side. Admiral Thrawn: "According to page 135, when one of the woman's feet is pointing in my direction she may be signalising her sexual interest in me" Friend: "Yes - but her arms are folded. This is equivocal. On the one hand, it could be a gesture of rejection...on the other hand she could be defensive but nonetheless potentially interested." Woman: "Look. Both of you.

" :laugh: Oh my this is too funny, I can't stop laughing! Admiral Thrawn Your tactical plan to impose friendly-touches are not healthy. I think you should be yourself. Period. Don't try to deliver false intentions/signals to women. Go out, have fun, and meet people that share the same interests as you. Thats the only way you'll meet eligible women. Don't try to come up with master-minded schemes, with the exception of Gold Pile (his intentions are somewhat different than yours). Eventually the right woman will come along. Engage in eventful, fun, and public-friendly activities, otherwise women might think you're a freak. Link to post Share on other sites
