I try to stay open-minded on here, but i don't quite understand the point of "virtual" cuddle sessions. I get that we're in a pandemic, so some people aren't comfortable with cuddling for real right now. That's totally understandable. I also get that some pros still need a source of income.
What I don't get is the appeal of this so-called "virtual cuddling." Can someone explain it to me? I'd really like to know. What do you actually do during these sessions? Just talk? You can do that for free with regular friends, so I can't imagine why anyone would pay for it. To me the whole point/appeal of cuddling is the physical touch that so many of us are lacking in our personal relationships. That's why I often pay a professional; I'm single, and none of my friends are into platonic cuddling.
So what exactly is the point of paying a professional to just sit there on a computer screen and...just talk? Or is that what you do? I haven't tried one of these sessions. Does more than just friendly conversation happen? Is there some other sort of activity you do that you can't do with friends and family?
