I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

I wish we had a hug emoticon that didn't look so happy for those times when a friend needs a comforting hug.

Thank you for doing such a good job creating and monitoring this site! 🤗

Yeah, 🤔there used to be on the older emojis. The new ones aren't as good.

@Peaches I hope they can include a better one here.

Good morning SweetMae 🤗. I agree, very thoughtful. I think it's a great idea. 👍️ There are a lot of emoticons that are never used and hopefully replacing one that would be used wouldn't be too difficult. The 🤗 is still cool for the happy hugs. ☕️

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@softspokenman Yes! Happy hugs to you too. 🤗

I agree....sometimes it feels awkward to include a hug emoji with a big smile on it.
We don’t always smile when we hug people in person.

@DragonFruit That is true. Some hugs are to comfort.

I completely agree. I usually just XxXX when someone is sad because the happy/creepy one seems so disrespectful. He lacks empathy .

SweetMae · 70-79, F

@SW-User Yes it does seem disrespectful when some is hurting or grieving. Good Morning 🤗

I have hesitated using it at times because of the smile

This is an excellent suggestion. 🤗

What I currently do is post this---> *Hugs* whenever I want to give someone a hug and it's inappropriate to use the happy-face hug emoji. But it would be great if we had a hug emoticon that's more fitting for those occasions that are nothing to smile about.
