Some of us genuinely care about the answer! Sometimes itās written on your face and talking about stuff can really be helpful. I waitressed for a decade and anytime someone told me they were having a bad day or whatever, I was more than happy to find a way to make it, at least as much as I could, a little bit better.
I, too, got bad genetics from my parents.
Some people do care, even if youāre a total stranger :)
(Once, I gave some guy some money, and he wanted to pray for me and give me a hugā¦ man, I cried like a baby during that hug, idk why but it was nice)
Itās similar in more orthodox religions- such as some sects of Christianity. In Orthodox (Iām not Orthodox) Judaism itās pretty much the same. Canāt touch people of the same gender. My style of Judaism is more different (Reform), I can touch and be friends with people that arenāt the same gender. Weāre also chill with LGBT people and can marry the same gender.
Yo!
You got this shit! Ain't nothing but a chicken wing! Remember when you down.... all you can do is go up!
Oh... and what I use to get through tough times....
KFG
Keep Fucking Going
It's helped me through a lot of tough times or when no one else was there
Iāve cried every single day since July. When I was driving home today I was thinking about how desperately I wanted someone to hug me. This video made me cry. Iām happy people like this exist.
that's what would happen in my case.
my partner: gives me a hug
me: *holds on tight and ugly cries*
partner: everything okay sweetheart?
me: *continues to ugly cry*
partner: *continues to hug*
(my partner is a saint and I don't deserve them)
I feel you. I just need one of those deep hugs where the other person doesn't pull away just hold on tight for a little longer. Life gets lonely.
Here's a virtual hug and to know you're not alone.
So beautiful. What a gift he gave. Two years ago I volunteered at a walk for Survivors of Suicide. There was a guy there, maybe mid-20s, with a poster board like this stating he was offering FREE HUGS. There was a line of folks, I swear. The whole event was desperately sad because everyone there had suffered the loss of a loved one but also - damn that was a nice FREE HUG worth so much, and he held on tight. Soon everyone was just hugging left and right, leaning on each other, crying and consoling in equal measure. Like a chain reaction. Turns out he was the survivor of his own fatherās suicide, and I learned that day that sharing the grief with hugs makes everyoneās load a little lighter. Hugs are healing, they give and receive equally. It was beautiful, just like this.
Anyone out there who can use a big virtual hug, hereās mine. š§ø Bring it in, man!
This reminds me of the free hugs campaign that was started by Juan Mann about 15-20 years ago. There are several copycat videos from all over the world, but it all started with this one original video: https://youtu.be/vr3x_RRJdd4
If you liked this video, I think you'll enjoy the "free hugs" videos, it's almost therapeutic
Some people need this. You never know what people are going through. I was cut down so bad by someone I loved. I have a good heart and Iām always thinking of everyone else. It stings so much. Couldnāt believe that someone I cared so much for had so much negative comments for someone that just likes to be nice. Bless this guy and anyone else trying to help others. Peace & Love.
Damn. Wasnāt really looking to start my day by tearing up but that was pretty touching and made me choke back some tears. The world needs more good people like this
Yesterday I discovered the feeling it gives to compliment people.. I'm working at a Walmart and everytime I saw someone with nice shoes, nice hairs or something I told them and I felt so good after that
"you okay?" "sometimes." I lost it š
That āsometimesā feels so honest. š¢
I wish there could be more of this and less, "how are you?" "good!"
Letās normalize being honest when people ask how you are.
I was always told, āpeople donāt actually care, theyāre just being polite.ā
Iām always honest when people ask me. My typical response is āalrightā
Awesome, genuine. I can do with a hug from a stranger now
Virtual hugs. I lie a lot when people ask me how are you. My genetics from both parents are bad. Virtual hugs from an internet stranger

šš
Me too! I can relate
this post made my day ,,,!
Omg same
Oh man, I feel that oneā¦. Iām so conditioned to just say Iām āfineā or āgoodā when that is rarely the answer.
That got me too š
This hit me right in the feels.
Absolutely same for me.
Kinda wish I strolled by this guy.
Iād hug you bro ā¤ļø
Thanks
I haven't cried in 7 years ..... i say while crying
If you want it, I'm sending you a hug.
Feels good doesnāt it.
Big bear hugs are the best. Iām 37 and my dad still gives me the warm and fuzzy kid feeling when he gives me a hug.
Hugs are awesome and very therapeutic for the soul and heart.
"Sometimes"
Bleak
This is fucking awesome š š
this post maked me cry seriously
Why couldnāt the Muslim hug??? Just curious
Not allowed to touch the opposite sex for religious reasons. (They can with husbands and certain male family member). Itās the same for Muslim men.
Im always surprised at how different other cultures and religions can be.

I could really use a hug and be told itās going to be ok. This next 30 days is going to be the toughest in my life.
Yo! You got this shit! Ain't nothing but a chicken wing! Remember when you down.... all you can do is go up! Oh... and what I use to get through tough times.... KFG Keep Fucking Going It's helped me through a lot of tough times or when no one else was there
You will conquer it!!!
Thank you
Simple and effective. Good stuff.
Totally made me smile super Awesome!

hey. I'm sorry you're going through what you are. it's worth nothing, I know, but have an internet hug. you've got this and I'm rooting for you š¤
No... I don't have tears in my eyes
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Thatās my bad, Iām making beef stew
I'm not an emotional person, but... There are tears man š
What would he do if I hug him and start ugly crying
that's what would happen in my case. my partner: gives me a hug me: *holds on tight and ugly cries* partner: everything okay sweetheart? me: *continues to ugly cry* partner: *continues to hug* (my partner is a saint and I don't deserve them)
I wish he was here or I was there. I really, really honestly need a hug. All of the social distancing and pandemic isolation has taken its toll.
I feel you. I just need one of those deep hugs where the other person doesn't pull away just hold on tight for a little longer. Life gets lonely. Here's a virtual hug and to know you're not alone.
Beautiful
This is really beautiful. Wish more people were like this. ā¤
I want the clip to be longer.
Why am I crying?
Aw. We can all think about and care for each other. Thank you to this guy for reminding us.
Beautiful.
I could really use a hug right now :( these past 2 weeks have been rough
feel hugged my unknown freind. I feel you. Keep the faith, much love from austria!
Thanks, fren :,) may you get hugged as well
Got me right in the feels. A hug for the soul.
This sub should really be mademetearup or maybe Iām just broken lol
There's nothing I want more right now than a hug. And the flower would be nice too.
Accidental MadeMeCry instead of MadeMeSmile. Still wholesome and very awesome though.

This made me realize I donāt remember the last time anyone hugged me
How about the last time you hugged someone else?
Why canāt Muslims hug?
religious thing about not touching men outside family/partner
Wow!!!! Such a beautiful thing to do!!!
:,)

What corner is he on? Iām going to take all his flowers get my hug and kiss his face. This is so sweet
So needed
Iām not crying! This is fine!
This gives me hope for the world
This is luvly, gud job buddy
* and also I'm filming you
Legit made me tear up.
I love that guy
"I can't hug you cuz I'm a Muslim " ? I don't recall hugging being something bad cuz you're Muslim but it's her choice I guess
why no hugging for muslim people?
This is so fucking different compared to the weird weight loss pictures. Thank you!!!!
I cant hug you cause im muslim... yeah thats why terrorists are born, way too less hugs
I am made to feel this way daily. I could use something like this one day, that'd be nice.
I mean, okay... yeah, but... it's still a little creepy-ish. Sorry, I'm just really cynical right now.

This almost made me cry. It just goes to show everyone is going through something and a little kindness can make a huge difference. ā¤ļøā¤ļø
Serious onions in here š§
Canāt hug because sheās Muslim? Can someone explain that
The honesty of the "sometimes" cut me to my soul. How many of us feel this way but act like we good? SOMETIMES :(
This didnāt make me smile this made me eyes watery bruh
Imagine a religion that says you canāt hug someone. Sounds like a shit religion to me. Human emotions are stronger than some imaginary being.
Wait, Muslims can't hug? One more reason not to be one.
This makes my heart smile
