And this will be multi-part I'm sure as I'm only exploring the idea of cuddling as a therapy.
I'm basing this on experience. All of my cuddles have never been platonic even though my two closest friends are women I've never cuddled with and we're talking twenty of very close friendship. After hearing about professional cudding a few weeks ago by happenstance, I got curious. I'm starting to think there's a huge disconnect of what cuddling instamtely is compared to cuddling for a profession, because pillow talk you pay for isn't the same. I've haven't hired a cuddler yet, I'm still on the fence, but I think about all the pillow talk that I had that was real that led to conversations later and I start thinking about pillow talk I may pay for and comparing the two and I'm not so sure I get the connection that being professionally cuddled is therapy, because I don't think it can even compare with all the rules, so forth. I'm trying to understand the therapy part knowing once a payment is made is, it makes the experience nothing more than a transaction and and victim marketing.
So my question to the people being cuddled; Why did you seek out cuddling? Have you ever a with the session of this experience of not being the same as someone you were in love with and have regret spending the money and have you ever gone back to professional cuddling with disregard to the regret?
Professional cuddlers: And this isn't an attack, but have you ever felt like your were taking advantage of a situation to build a career and have developed a persona that doesn't allow connection the same way two people cuddling that were in love has and you're just filling a void to someone in need knowing you're not providing, even though it's promoted, the same experience of cuddling of being in love and have you ever though about the consequences of recreating such an intimate moment?
I kind of already have an idea of how both answers , but I haven't thought so much about the variables of how somebody gets into wanting to be cuddled and someone that wants to be cuddled, platonically, of course.
