This is What His Hug 🤗 Says for Girls Who Are Majorly Confused 🤔
Emily Holloway2 min read

Hugs are something that seem simple but actually can mean different things. Body language and physical touch can be great signs to see what a guy is feeling. Check out the list below to figure out what the man in your life might be thinking 💭
1. A Back Stroke

If you get a hug and he rubs your back, then it may be a sign that he is trying to comfort or reassure you 😌. It’s an extra sign that shows openness and vulnerability as well – we are not used to our backs being touched all too often.
2. The Squeeze

When you hug a guy and he gives you a squeeze, it shows that he wants to hold you close to him and can be a sign of intimacy. Whether it is a long hug or a short one⏱, he doesn’t want to let go of you anytime soon.
3. One Armed

Sometimes a guy will wrap his arm around your shoulders for a side, one-armed hug. Contrary to popular belief, these don’t always have to be awkward 💁. However, they probably mean that your relationship is more casual since it’s not a full, intimate embrace.
4. Eye Contact

You’re in the middle of a hug, and the guy pulls away to look into your eyes 👀 Talk about intimacy! He doesn’t want to miss seeing your face for a second and wants to share an even deeper connection with you.
5. The Slow Dance💃

The hugs where you wrap your arms around a persons neck while theirs are around your waist are signs of chemistry. It’s a flirty and youthful type of hug that means the romance is alive – with this hug, you can easily kiss your partner.
6. From behind

If a guy comes from behind and wraps his arms around you, that means he feels protective of you 💪 and wants to establish a sense of security. This is a sign of trust and care on his side.
7. Twirling

A twirling hug is a fun hug. If a guy picks you up in the middle of an embrace and spins you around, then he’s showing that he’s both comfortable with you. He also wants to make you smile 😊, laugh, and loves to have a fun time with you.
These are just some of the types of hugs you might receive from a guy in your life and what they might mean. Body language can be a fun thing to study 📚 If you know of any other hugs and what they might mean, please share!
