On a scale of 1-10 how affectionate do you think you are?

Not just in romantic relationships, though those count too, but in general to those you care about.

I think I'm honestly a solid 9, maybe 10 to some. I am the cooking for, hugging, comforting, cuddling, love-you-exchanging, handmade gift making sort. It's certainly not to everyone's tastes, I know.

Have a gif of some cat affection. 😌

I'm right up there with you. I don't know how it happened, because I saw almost no physical affection between my parents growing up. But now I'm the weirdo hugging everyone, even if they don't want to.

@dumpstermeow Same here!

@dumpstermeow Same. I sometimes wonder if it was the lack of affection I got as a child that made me like this.

@boklenholley7 I believe in telling people how you feel as well as showing it. You never know when the chance might be gone forever.

@dumpstermeow I can definitely agree with that. I see it more as making an effort to enjoy what you've got while you can. But semantics xD

@UndeadPrivateer my sister is the opposite. She's like a wooden board if you touch her. But I agree that maybe I saw it and wanted something better.

@dumpstermeow Yeah, I absolutely agree with that.
