There are many ways you can show your love or affection for soemone else.

 

•you can give them a gift

•a kiss on the cheek

•telling them how much you appriciate them as a friend

I LOVE hugging!

That's always been my thing.

If I'm in a good mood I will not retaliate from hugging you.

 

So how do you like to show your affection?

I like hugs too! :squee: Unfortunately, my real life friends aren't really into hugs, so I have to hug most of my internet friends instead (I'm happy that they like to be hugged though :P)

 

I especially love hugging my special somepony :squee: :squee:.

I absolutely love cuddling with my girlfriend. Also a fan of kissing and hugging. 

 

 

Friend-wise, I'm not very physical, I guess maybe try and build up their self confidence. Also a fan of making them smile and such, all the basics, really.

1. The directed sincere smile

 

2. Happy Tuesday (and no that is not code or innuendo). It's one of my laws if showing appreciation

Reminds me of the book The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. He basically writes that there are five general ways in which people experience love:

  • Touch
  • Quality time
  • Words of affirmation
  • Gifts
  • Acts of service

And most people have one or two that they're most "fluent" in; that is, one or two which make them feel most loved and which they're best at expressing love in. He says it a lot better than I do.

 

Anyway, of those, my top two are touch and quality time. But I think quality time is probs the number 1 for me. I love just hanging out with folks. :D

I'm not very physical, but I suppose I show my affection by listening to peoples problems.  If I really want you to like me I cook for you or draw you something :)

I love to listen to people's problems too. Getting to know a person intimately gives me the greatest feeling.

 

but I still can't wrap my head around Mass Effect.

Now that I am back to something that has a keyboard, I'll elaborate on what I mean by 'Happy Tuesday'. It's a very simple concept that spits in the face of Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, and Anniversaries. A surprise out of nowhere, not connected to anything but your appreciation, love, or generosity. It can be small ... like me stopping by the Chinese Restaurant and picking up a pint of my wife's favorite soup. It could be big ... like a day spa trip. Not connected to any occasion but simply saying, 'I love you'. 

 

I do not limit this to my family either. Small acts of kindness and reaching out to say, 'Hey your a decent guy/girl.' is something I do almost without thinking when I see an opportunity. See someone in a bad mood ... it's Tuesday ... Happy Tuesday!

 

I like human contact ... but I'm always shy at initiating contact since not everyone likes to be touched.

I also used the word Tuesday arbitrarily; it could be any day. For whatever reason the concept of random kindness confuses my coworkers or friends when I strike. :D

Calling my friends names.  :wub: 
Things like dork, jerk, and might other things I can't post on the forums. "You're a jerk, but I love you~~" If you're my friend, you know I mean no harm when I do this.


Physically, I give hugs to only those I love best. It's true, it's true. Family and best best friends only.

That's awesome! Such random generosity is quite admirable.

Hugs I love hugs

Unfortunatly most of my friends arent into hugs so i tell them how much i apprichiate them 

*Hugs*

Here's a hug for you then *hugs*

 

I like hugs too! :squee: Unfortunately, my real life friends aren't really into hugs, so I have to hug most of my internet friends instead (I'm happy that they like to be hugged though :P)

 

I especially love hugging my special somepony :squee: :squee:.

Hug for you too while I'm at it *Hugs*

 

 

Hugs for everybody for that matter *hugs everyone*

 

Anyways. If you cannot tell, I think my favorite form of affection is hugs, Idk, i just like them for whatever reason. Such a warm great feeling when you get a hug, as long as it's sincere, and you can feel when it is, and it's great :D.

 

Unfortunately I don't get them that often IRL, but regardless, my internet ones will have to do most times, but I love them regardless as well.

 

I also like just talking to people sometimes. Getting to know them, or helping them, or just goofing off. ;p

 

As far as significant other affection stuff, I've never dated soo, I don't have input on stuff like snuggling and the like ;p. 

 

Hugs are my favorite though, make me feel wanted and embraced, and like protected and like everything is going to be ok, so hard to explain, but such a warm feeling.

Even though I'm single at the moment but if I had a special somepony to spent time with, I would love to lay next to her and hold her close and tell her how much I love and care for her. Cuddling? Oh yeah I definitely love cuddling because I love how it makes you feel. :) Plus I would just look into her eyes and just say how beautiful she is to me.

Nuzzling! Humans can do it too, but it's SO CUTE

Nuzzling is really cute to watch the ponies do, it's incredibly adorable when they do it. 

 

I have never seen humans do it though ;p, idk if that would work or not, and as I haven't dated anyone I can't say I could try it either.

I really like hugs; I love the feeling of being embraced and of course returning the affection. I often reject casual hugs from friends/coworkers because I don't want to appear too soft, but I sometimes (rarely) let my guard down.

It's just simply rubbing your noses together... gently

Nuzzling's one thing I would definitely love to do to show affection. A quick smooch on the cheek or the mouth would also be really cute for me. I also love hugs from people who feel really close to me. A long, passionate hug with the girl I love. 

 

Affection for me is also expressed with words, such as "I love you" and other phrases that mean a lot to me. Someday... I'll get all of that... But for now, I'll wait patiently and rock grad school! :P

Hugs! They always put me in a good mood.

 

Did you know that hugs lower your blood loss and raises oxytocin levels (which could be described as the "warm and fuzzy feeling)? It has been psychologically proven! :D

A kiss can say a thousand words all in one second. 

I've only ever been kissed once and it was like I could feel everything he was feeling just by the way he held his lips, his eyes, the way he moved his tongue, the way he breathed, where he held me.

 

Hugging is such a versatile form of affection, but kissing is by far the strongest.
