I liked to cuddle with my dog but he is dead.
Doesn't feel like the real thing.
This is just lying to myself.
I only have pain in me.just what you were looking for, but already within!
Good, let's not deny it, but let's also not overlook the pain's message! It's trying to wake you up, tell you that something is not quite aligned somewhere.
How would you know what being honest with yourself is when you can't even hug yourself and tell yourself that you love and accept yourself just as you are?
It is just how the human body and mind responds when it gets confronted with situations it wasn't meant for.
I hate my body and mind, why should I love it?
I am to hyper active to relax and meditate.
Dear friend, without lying, How heavy does that thought feel?
You don't need to meditate, there is no meditator, meditation is what we are. The "I" that has all these problems and attributes on the other hand does need to be "done", it's invented by the mind moment-to-moment, it's a story. That which is effortlessly aware of these words right now is meditation itself, it was never not aware, it is permanent, but thoughts come and go, they can't be who you are. See, you are prior to the idea of you, and without thinking, only "awareness" remains, so don't ever define yourself, you are beyond all labels, be they positive or negative ones, you are undefinable, as am I, and we both meet in the everpresent silence behind all these words.
I have a weightened blanket and a body pillow of my waifu but what does the op in that thread mean by "big gel bead balls"?
I'm pretty sure I found the item shown in the image (looked at the file name of the image and it matches)
I don't know, I'm just sharing something I found, I said I never tried this. Maybe they're to simulate breasts?
That actually makes sense.
It is the truth.
I don't like showering, I can't distract from anything then.
That doesn't simulate a human laying on you and wraping their arms around your body.
Same, I dont even think I have ever been hugged by someone that wasnt from my family
Really, you can just make money by cuddling with other? That sounds like a cool job haha. I am poor so using a service like that is no option.
Some dogs like being held and/or cuddled, just depends on the dog haha. Same with cats. It helps increase oxytocin levels too but it's still not the same as a human hug/cuddle.
I'm not familiar with that one in particular but yeah, basically those kinds of sites. I just don't like the idea of cuddling as a service though. It's nice that it's an option but the best thing IMO is mutual cuddles where you get the feeling of actually being wanted. It's very hard to find that outside of a relationship though, and many on this site including me are unable to find one. :(
I like cute dogs so much, how can I know before hugging them if they are ok with that?
They probably wouldn't with a stranger but if they are comfortable with you they might come up on your lap or something. If it's a random dog on the street I'd stick to just petting only if the dog approaches you happily / the owner says it's ok. Body language is a good indicator and dogs seem to like calm and non-threatening energy. A good heuristic to to let everything happen on the animal's terms.
