Cuddle companion

A few years ago I had considered getting a cuddling certification (it's a real thing). To start a business where people schedule sessions to just cuddle with me. A type of therapy. Since we are supposed to have human contact, preferably a hug, at least 3 times a day to keep our chemicals balanced, and we are such an adverse society to any touch unless it's cold or sexual, it seemed like something necessary.

Sometimes, I still think about it. Setting up a nice studio with comfy pillows, blankets, different light settings, some aromatherapy, soft relaxing music, etc.

But then I realize that most would expect it to be a sexual encounter and I quit considering it.

It's a shame that just wanting to touch and be touched, hugged or cuddled always ends up sexual. Sometimes, you just need himan contact.

Some time ago, I discovered that there are volunteer programs in some hospitals where you can cuddle babies who for whatever reason don’t have mothers or a support system, like those abandoned and waiting to be placed in foster care. Because there is the understanding that physical contact is very important and can even make the difference between a child thriving or not.

But with adults I could see it being much more problematic.

There aren't many phrases sadder than abandoned babies 😢
