Have you ever experienced a hug as painful?

@Fallflower my best female friend always complained when I hugged her because I seemed to let myself hang on her shoulders. We're only okay if she initiates the hugs.

@scooogy well if they squeeze too hard it hurts my back, wish it didn’t but such is life. A warm, enveloping hug usually does not hurt though.

@Fallflower I actually wonder why it wouldn't hurt the chest first.

@scooogy yep that is a thing too. They can be tender at times.

@Fallflower what about swaying sideways during a hug?

@scooogy what about it? That probably wouldn’t hurt me if that’s what you’re asking

@Fallflower I always wondered if it could harm the spine.

@scooogy just be gentle
