Date Gal - Love, Sex and Relationships

Want a Cuddle?


Did you know today was National Cuddle Day!!! Yep - a chance to share the love but unfortunately I don't see much of that going on!

I think personally the hug/ the cuddle is non existent. No one seems to do it anymore - are we all to busy to have a little bit of a cuddle with our loved ones? And by cuddle I mean that - not sex (I know some of you use cuddle as a word for sex!!!)

Think about it though - when you meet up with friends, blokes shake hands, gals to the kiss on the cheek but no cuddle!

If you're in a relationship - do you set aside cuddle time? Do you ever see your friend's and their lovers cuddling? Your parents? I think not! Sure a quick cuddle after sex might happen, but then we usually turn over and go to sleep right?


Where has the cuddle gone? I think we're seriously missing out because they're great - they mean love, affection and it gives you great warmth!

Bring back the cuddle I say!

I agree, I always cuddle my female friends when saying goodbye. Obviously Im not in a relationship at the moment but cuddle time is the best, especially on days like today when its cold and miserable.

I cuddle with my boyfriend. It's nice to do something that isn't sexual sometimes.
3. October 20th 2006 @ 23:55. DateGal Says:

4. October 20th 2006 @ 23:57. DateGal Says:
That's great Joy - is it a special set time or is your relationship so great you ca get it whenever you want?
5. October 20th 2006 @ 23:57. TonyK Says:
Unfortunately I'm at work but you can go for a jog for both of us DateGal if you like.lol
6. October 20th 2006 @ 23:58. Joy Says:
You mean cuddling? It's just whenever, I suppose. Hehe.
7. October 21st 2006 @ 00:02. DateGal Says:
I am too TonyK - oh well! Crank up the heater
8. October 21st 2006 @ 00:02. DateGal Says:
WoW - Joy you do have the ideal romance!!! Good on you!
9. October 21st 2006 @ 00:03. Joy Says:
We've had a long, long time to figure it out.
10. October 21st 2006 @ 00:06. DateGal Says:
Any tips from you then - the secret to a great relationship?
11. October 21st 2006 @ 00:08. Joy Says:
Uhm. I'm not really sure. Understand that some things he does will just annoy you and live with it? Because most everything else that makes you happy outweighs that. (I've found that talking through things work wonders. And patience. Lots of it. ) I'm no expert.
12. October 21st 2006 @ 00:09. DateGal Says:
Good advice - dealing with people's annoying habits is always a challenge!!! Well done!
13. October 21st 2006 @ 00:09. TonyK Says:
Communication is the key, never go to sleep angry-so they say
14. October 21st 2006 @ 00:09. Lily Says:
poor snuggles, where do they fit in.. ?
but yeah, bring back the cuddles...

warmly,
~Lily
15. October 21st 2006 @ 00:13. DateGal Says:
Thanks Lily - appreciate your thouhts!!!

Glad your all for the cuddles!
16. October 21st 2006 @ 00:15. DateGal Says:
Yeah Tony K - beds are for loving - not fighting!
17. October 21st 2006 @ 00:15. Lily Says:
you're welcome

seriously though, what does everyone think about the snuggle, has it been replaced, is it defunct?

~Lily

18. October 21st 2006 @ 00:17. DateGal Says:
Perhaps the snuggle has been replaced wth quick sex and then the roll over! Nothing better than a snuggle on the couch why watching TV

What do you think Lily
19. October 21st 2006 @ 00:20. TonyK Says:
I agree-nothing better than snuggles and staying up all night talking, but yea I dont think snuggles are necessarily defunct
20. October 21st 2006 @ 00:20. Lily Says:
quick sex and the rollover (lol - it even sounds quick..)
will never match the longer lasting snuggle.. long live the snuggle!!

~Lily
21. October 21st 2006 @ 00:30. DateGal Says:
Thanks guys - great comments
22. October 21st 2006 @ 14:03. Jimbo Says:
Whenever I cuddle a chick, I can't help but say "awww" in a really cynical way. I have no idea why, but I do it almost instinctually. Not that I'm against the cuddle or the hug - I'm a pretty intimate person in that regard. I really don't know why I do it.
23. October 21st 2006 @ 14:16. Ahmed Says:
I... uh... cuddle the computer monitor when whatever it is I'm working on works

you might think its wierd, geeky, nerdy or anything else, but beieve you me, spending so long with a PC intimately delving into its deepest darkest parts (alright, so I program mid level code, not low level), and then connecting said parts to create something so wonderful and beautiful, that actually works (erm, by wonderful and beautiful I mean something that works really) makes you fall in love with the computer.

Its difficult to explain, though it sucks the computer doesn't hug back (not physically atleast)... I think I'll... program it some arms when I finish my degree... yeah, I'll do that...



As for the whole cuddling == sex (two '=' cos thats how the syntax in java and c/c are to check truth statements), guess what? Bilbo Baggand and Frodo are gay lovers. How did they come to this conclusion? I dunno, I mean, maybe they loved each other like brothers, but if they hugged on screen you bet yah everyone would say they are gay lovers.




Oh and one more thing, if anyone thinks I'm just a sad, sad case, well they are wrong, nobody could possibly be as lucky as me, in my line of work (study), I fall in love everyday.
24. October 21st 2006 @ 19:40. Aaron Says:
Cuddling, there's just nothing better. But, i hate with the girl's hair gets all over in your face and in your mouth. But, yeah cuddling is great...lol.

Aaron.
25. October 22nd 2006 @ 06:20. Ash Says:
Ahmed I like your cooment on how you are lucky as everyday you fall in love...thats such a good way of looking at things and just goes to show the different meanings of the word!

Cuddles...snuggles...any intimacy that isn't just sexually related is great.

Ash
26. October 22nd 2006 @ 08:21. Ahmed Says:
Ash, well if you like it you should look into my line of work (or study as it is now), I gaurantee you it is a roller coaster of emotions.

I did find myself swearing uncontrollably at the computer today... which isn't really like me.



Back on the subject of cuddles, would cuddling your baby brother count?
27. October 22nd 2006 @ 11:58. Ash Says:
ha ha trust me I go through those emotions everyday with my computer too - I'm not quite sure how it hasn't gone in the ocean yet.
Little brothers give great cuddles, well mine does whenever I see him anyway! All cuddles are good.

28. October 22nd 2006 @ 12:04. Ahmed Says:
I think little brothers/sisters give the best cuddless of anyone

They're so cute
29. October 23rd 2006 @ 00:08. Johanna Says:
There is nothing like a cuddle. My partner and I indulge in a cuddle several times a day as we enjoy the closeness. he loves it when I snuggle up to him while we watch TV or a DVD.

In addition to Ahmed's comment, my baby is just starting to cuddle back and there's nothing like it. You know it comes from unconditional love.
30. October 23rd 2006 @ 07:10. Bryn Says:
SPOONING!!!! Otherwise known as position "33" ....
Now there's a sensual cuddle!!!
31. October 23rd 2006 @ 13:16. DateGal Says:
Hey guys - fantastic comments! Got a few laughs while reading them - especially yours Ahmed, feel like giving you a cuddle right now!!!

Bryn - I am with you on spooning!!! Nothing better!

Aaron- very funny comments! I guess a lot of blokes can relate with the hair thing!!! Just part of life unfortunately!

Jimbo - hmmm funnhy reaction to the cuddle! How do girls react when you do it?

Ash, Johanna - totally agree with your comments about little rug rats giving hugs, they're the best! Glad that they learn to share the love so early!

Keep smiling
32. October 23rd 2006 @ 13:19. Always Eighteen Says:
I cuddled my cousin, my mother, and my car today

Hey hang on... is a cuddle something that's more than a hug? Like a smiley mooshy thing?


Yes, spooning is great!
33. October 24th 2006 @ 00:01. Justin Says:
My girlfriend is the biggest fan of spooning, or what she calls "spoony", to an extent sometimes it's required for her to enter sleep faster.
Sometimes I'm the little spoon which I'm man enough to announce is comforting from time to time. I'd rather be the big spoon of course, but mixing it up is all about gender equality and reciprocal loving yeah?
34. October 24th 2006 @ 00:18. DateGal Says:
Justin - hmmm you bring up an interesting point! Spooning - the female spooning the male! Is it the done thing? Or is it suppose to be the man spooning the girl in a protective manner???
35. October 24th 2006 @ 01:24. TonyK Says:
I think in this day and age the female can spoon the male just as much as the male can spoon his female partner. I mean in the long run its all love and affection, and we all need that, so I think who instigates it doesnt really matter.
36. October 24th 2006 @ 02:14. Bryn Says:
Go the spoon cuddle!
Either way it rocks!
I want a t-shirt that says "Spoonin' is real knife and it forkin' rules!"
37. October 24th 2006 @ 02:18. TonyK Says:
Maybe you should design it Bryn? Make a fortune
38. October 24th 2006 @ 02:33. DateGal Says:
Thanks guys.... I agree that it should work both ways however - sometimes though it's a bit hard to spoon when the bloke is quite big and muscular.. hard to get your arms around but yes you're right - in this day and time it should be both who take it upon themselves to spoon!
39. October 24th 2006 @ 02:37. TonyK Says:
I guess thats where Im lucky, Im neither overly big or muscular, so can work both ways. But personally Id much rather be the one doing the spooning, guess its the whole protective sort of thing
40. October 24th 2006 @ 02:52. DateGal Says:
Knocked the nail rigth on the head - it's like the good ole cave man days! Guys like to sleep closest to the door (and sometimes they don't realise why they do it) but it's so they're the protector. Same for spooning! I kind of like it - bit of a turn on!
41. October 24th 2006 @ 02:55. TonyK Says:
Yeah and I guess another thing is guy's dating girls who are shorter than them as well?
42. October 24th 2006 @ 19:59. Adrienne Says:
Mmm, I love cuddling
