Just that really,do you ever have a day when you wake up and need to feel loving arms around you without having someone special to say I am here lean on me for a while.
Well I am having one of those days.

A big hug from me too. We can't give real hugs but warm thoughts are always here in Gransnet x

(In my case its a divorce following abuse, but there was love there too, and its first thing in the morning and even more last thing when the TV is switched off.)

Hugs from me too, downtoearth, and also for anyone else feeling the need of one just now. Hope things improve for you soon. flowers

Big hug from me as well. Perhaps we should have a group hug to cheer everyone up πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€—. Hope things look up for you.

Sometimes I just long for the old days when the people who meant so much were still alive and I belonged instead of having to watch every word I say, be shot down in flames if I disagree or even have a viewpoint. I do belong to one group which is run by a lovely retired lady who values us all equally and you feel as if you belong. So, yes, a big metaphoric hug to anyone who needs one today.

I've Still got a couple of DH's BIG sweaters hanging in the wardrobe. I feel comforted when I wear them on a cold miserable day. Almost like a hug

A hug from me coming your way I wouldn’t mind one back too 🫢🏼

Fleurpepper Tue 15-Nov-22 14:40:34

And from me too. I am always so surprised when some on GN say they are not huggers, or kissers. So lovely to see wo many are sending hugs, and so happy to send mine along too.
