Who was the last person you hugged? and the one before that? How were the two actions different?
I sometimes wonder, how many different kinds of hugs are there in our lives.
There is this "all out hug" which can easily turn into a bone crushing experience, generally shared amongst guys in one of those super happy friendly moments.
Then there is that "barely a hug", which is more like an awkward pat on the back while standing in front of each other. Mostly happens, when you are not really sure how friendly are you supposed to be.
Then there is that "cuddle", which is what most children give their parents, and is often shared by brothers/sisters as well.
Then there is that "impossibly long embrace", mostly shared between spouses when meeting in public where they are actually reluctant to let each other go, but kinda have to ( I don't know how long into the relationship it continues). I am not even getting into whatever happens in private.
Then there is that "I am not hugging you hug", where it is just a way of telling the other person that I would rather stab you in 21 different places than hug you but I am still doing it just to maintain courtesy. Some couples do graduate to this one from the one above with time. Or may be most do.
Then there is that " Bum out face in crouch ", generally shared amongst between friends of different sexes, for obvious reasons, and in an attempt to avoid awkwardness is probably the most awkward one to look at, because it looks like both the people are using each other as sticks to help them stand, and are suffering from spinal disorder.
