The Hug

“When you wait too long to tell someone how you feel, the decision gets made for you and you may not get the chance to tell them.”

Ladies, lets gather for a minute. It doesn’t matter if you're single, married, dating, in a complicated situation, this is all for us. So let me ask you...

When was the last time you were held? I'm not talking about the cuddling after sex, the "hey how are you doing" hug, no I'm talking about held in a way that time freezes and anything that was on your mind just leaves your body as he keeps his arms wrapped around you and your head is either nestled on his shoulder or your chin is on the nape of his neck and his cheek is pressed on your neck. None of you say a word and you just stand there letting him hold you, protect you, and breathe you. ✨️

When was the last time you were held like this? 🫂

Who was it and where is this man now? If he is your husband or your companion, cherish that act of love, because that's what it is, an act of love. And we all deserve to feel that. 💗

Now, I'm single so I don't expect anyone to hold me like that unless we're involved or he really feels that way about me...but you know what? If one of my previous lovers randomly did this, I probably wouldn't know how to act. Do I pull away, do I give in? Do I just let it all happen? What would I do? Knowing me, I’d probably just freeze until he says something. 😵‍💫😆😳

And fellas please don't use this as one of your tactics. As a matter of fact, I hope none of you are using any of the content on here to play mind games with women. And if you are, and it’s working, then you’re welcome. I’m glad I was able to help you maneuver through women. I wear a size “All Expense Paid Trip To Fuji”.

Or maybe you always have been like this and just did not know how to manage your interactions with women, and believe me I can always tell when men are being hesitant around me. Just be genuine, that's all you need to do. But, please don't make me an accomplice to your shenanigans, some of my friends already do that enough. 🫠🙃

Why am I bringing this up? Because I was having lunch the other day and I was facing the windows that looked out into the street. I saw a couple, it looked like they were arguing. The women's face looked frustrated and the man's face looked tired. So after a few minutes of her waving her hands around his face, the man just hugs her. She tried to pull away, but her held on to her and she gave in and hugged him back. This hug probably lasted less than a minute, but I'm sure for them that time wasn't a reality and the only thing that mattered was that space and that hug became about love and trust. Call me sentimental, call me a hopeless romantic but it was beautiful to see that. 💕

I hope, no matter if you are a man or woman, that you have this in your life, or if you've never experienced this, I hope you do one day. ❤️

Be safe everyone. 🙏🏽
