I want a hug

tvenam — Tue, 12 Apr 2022 01:48:32 GMT

Hi,

My name is Tom and I'm 14.

I'm new to this forum, but I feel so depressed and sad at school because of mean kids, and Ive always wanted a hug from a girl, I have a girl in mind, and I feel like a hug from her would feel so loving and warm.

Could someone please comfort me or something? I cant really elaborate at the moment because I'm at school, but I will be happy to talk later in the replies.

Hello Dear tveman...

A very warm welcome to the forums...

I am so sorry that you feel depressed and sad at school...Does this feeling also come to you while your at home...

I agree you with you about hugs...they do make us feel comforted and warm...

Does this girl know you like her?

I love give out hugs here on the forums...to try to make people feel cared for...I would love to give you a warm friendly hug if that’s okay....although I’m old enough to be your grandmother....I want you to know that I’m listening and here if you want to talk some more about yourthoughts and feelings....

My kindest thoughts, with my care and a warm comforting hug 🤗 dear tveman...

Hi there Ggrand,

No I usually don't feel as bad at home. This crush doesn't know I like her, in fact she doesn't even know I exist, shes a famous actress. But yes I love hugs but my parents don't give me any and neither do my friends. I'll do ok though. Virtual hugs are nice

In fact I'll be honest, my crush is probably older than you because I love old hollywood and my crush is from that era. Her name was Natalie Wood, and she was in West Side Story and Rebel Without A Cause.

Hello Tom, a hug seems to rid us of any ill-feelings or thoughts and it's not something that fades away as we grow older, although as you age, it becomes slightly easier to give someone a hug, whether you're in love, infatuation or to console a person.

As you're young, this is going to happen throughout your life and at times when it does and other times when it seems as 'grass is always greener on the other side' saying.

This can happen to celebrities you suddenly fall in love with or perhaps someone at school who has many friends around her and giving her all the attention that you want to be part of, but are unable to for certain reasons, and this only makes it worse.

Don't forget there might be girls who want to do exactly the same with you that you are unaware of, so it goes both ways.

Geoff.

Hello tvenam,

I once had a huge crush on Keven Sorbo (Hercules)....I do understand how your feeling....If only we could reach through the screen...how good that would be....I remember both those movies you’ve written here...She was a beautiful lady....and received many awards for he acting skills...

Natalie Woods has a Facebook page...for her admirers, their are some really nice photos and write ups about her...I’m wondering if you have checked her page out...I think you might enjoy it and you can talk to her many other fans and admirers on their...

I’m really sorry to hear that your parents don’t give you hugs...mine were the same...Ummm maybe when your feeling like a hug...just walk up to one of your parents and give them a hug...just tell them , you need a hug...How do you think they would react?....

I hope you enjoy your school holidays tveman...

Here if you want to talk some more...

My kindest thoughts, with my care and a hug..

Hi Tom. You made me remember being 14. I didn't like it much. Life gets better, mate. Some of us fit in at school and some of us don't. Remember, your school is full of people who happen to live close to you. After school you will find a career and it will be full of people you have more in common with. Your friendships will come from groups you join because of common interests.

My parents never hugged me or told me they loved me. Some parents are just like that. I craved that all through my childhood, and smothered my kids in it because I knew how much they need it.

God, being 14 and liking someone is so scary!! I know just how you feel. I think you're combining two things here. I have lots of female friends I hug, but that they are female does not matter, they are just friends. So remember, if a girl gives you a hug, it might only mean friendship. Are you even friends with this girl? If you don't really know her, you have a crush, and that is also normal. I guess my only advice is, if you don't try you won't know, but also, I know that the down side can be devastating, so work out what you feel comfortable with. Don't go and talk to her because someone on the internet told you to 🙂

To be honest, when I hug my parents I don't feel warm inside or anything. It makes me sad.

Hi,

check some of my previous replies, she's a celebrity.

Hello Tom, hugging your parents has always been happening for 14 years, so it's only a natural instinct to find someone else to be more exciting and dreaming of a celebrity is something you're not alone with, as I too, wish it would happen with me.

OH!!! Well, I wanted to hug Samantha Fox for all of 1988, so that's pretty normal, so long as we understand it's not a realistic goal.

Hi tvenam,

I've had plenty of crushes, and I still do! James Dean is one of them, haha. For me, these crushes are a healthy way of escaping from reality. I like to watch movies with good-looking actors for the same reason. Looking at something nice helps me cope with the unpleasant things in life.

From my personal experience, one day when you look back, you will have very fond memories of your current crush.

Take care. Giving you a hug!!!
