Any dude craving just male affection

[bigmanfan]

In the last year I've been touched and surprised by gentle tender affection from straight male friends, the watching tv together with him leaning in to me with my arm around him, an arm put round my waist when talking together. It's something fairly new to me.

I lost my best friend Jake in 2001 to HIV/AIDS. Wonderful, wonderful human being. On so many levels.

Known to be quite the cuddler himself, that changed for him after he was diagnosed; his cuddlers disappeared. Except for two of them. Myself and my husband.

Many many many weekend evenings were spent together eating dinner and watching TV; one of us would be on the couch and Jake would lie back between our legs with his head on the respective chest. All 6' 7" of him. For hours.

Hard to ever know who got the most out of these cuddle sessions, him or us. All we knew is that it felt completely natural to both of us because when we started our relationship, we could literally spend most of the weekend in bed cuddling and watching TV. For hours.

I guess you could say we are professional cuddlers. We've certainly had a lot of practice, lol.

I had a straight male friend like that in my early 20s. We'd go on holiday just the two of us, motor biking in Greece and France, shared a bed and showered together a few times, he'd bring beers and chat when I was in the bath, we'd read and loll for hours on the sofa or bed, arms and legs touching. It was platonic, but very affectionate. He moved away to America and we're in touch from time to time but I do miss that kind of intense, close friendship.

I missed it, my whole life, of the masculine affection! Since I was a kid I heard: "man does not cry ... man does not" this ", man does not" that "! As bad as not to have, is to lose the ability / courage to give this affection! I want, so much, to be hugged and reciprocate those hugs!

I had a few male friends in graduate school who were surprisingly affectionate. Some of them required a bit of drinking beforehand, but I became no stranger to arm-over-shoulder couch-sitting and couch-leaning. It was weird the very first time it happened, but once I got over my silly reaction, I actually enjoyed it. We're social creatures and we respond well to loving pats, holds, and gestures. I think it also strengthened our friendships; I can respect another guy who's not so flagrantly homophobic as to interpret a long hug (at least 6 seconds for oxytocin release) for a ride in the sack. And now that I'm getting older and totally consumed by work, I appreciate some lovin' wherever I can get it!

I am so craving male affection. I had a great dad growing up. I just want to hug and kiss another dude that I am friends with.

Please answer seriously without insults.

Any other buddies on LPSG like this? It's not really the sex I'm really craving with dudes.

Right now, I would just like to hold a buddy and kiss him.

Beautiful, a bit sad – but also pretty affirmative. Times, they are-a-changing.... It's great that guys can now talk about what they need: if only on here, it's a start. Hearing these responses should give us all the permission we need to express ourselves, right? But we might have to instigate the affection-sharing ourselves. Lead by example, huh.

Beautiful. It sucks to put labels on people. And it sucks to be afraid of non-sexual affection for the fear of being labelled. Way to go.

I've felt this hunger all my life. Hunger for affection, for a hug, for gentle touch when needed, without the fear of discrimination! I hope the young ones can walk a new path with no fear, having all the needs fulfiled. This hunger is terrible and huge! Someone give me a hug, i will reciprocate with so many!

Be brave, sunshine. Show the love. Give someone a hug tomorrow! Hugs are generally reciprocated. Let's pave the way.
