>>11772677I picture you as being a hormonal teenage boy who just cannot comprehend being affectionate and intimate with somebody you love without sex being involved
Physical human contact is comforting and doesn't have to be sexual. You can cuddle with family/friends with their being no further objectives. Granted your typical macho dude isn't comfortable with that sort of thing I guess. But it's normal.
And have you seriously never cuddled with a dog/cat before?
