honestly asking a hug isnt that weird and its the best course of action. its easier to just be straightforward instead of relying on cues like opening your arms. if someone thinks youre weird for asking for a hug i think they have the issue here. its a normal thing to do

seriously tho what is the protocol for when you want a hug and dont want to be weird and just want to be casual. like. you just hold out your arms?? thats weird. because you gotta do it tentatively and then u look like a baby bird learning to fly for the first time. anything verbal is automatically weird and loserish because like. 'hey. hug me.' is weird. 'u want to hug?' is also weird. literally its all weird. guess i gotta learn to- OH. AHAHAH LOL. guess i gota learn to EMBRACE the weirdness

#society. joker face #i also struggle with asking for physical touch because its been ingrained in me that its weird #but its not #and im trying to unlearn thqt #humans are VERY physical creatures #no one should be shamed for asking friends or family for physical touch #the famous virginia satir quote #we need 4 hugs a day for survival and 8 hugs a day for maintenance. we need 12 hugs a day for growth #i promise youll get more hugs by being upfront and asking instead of small gestures that imply you want a hug but might not actually get-#-the point across for people who dont know what those gestures mean or dont want to assume #sorry for the rambling but regions bank is fucking boring
