Where do you Most Enjoy Touch during Cuddling?

I have cuddled with a number of different people over the past six months, and each of their cuddling preferences and styles are unique.

So I am curious to get a broader view of your preferences and experiences while cuddling, as well as to learn of what you like and don’t like,
and why.

I am also curious to read your comments which you share about why you like certain touch and dislike other types of touch.

  • I’m a hand-holder and a back rubber. And when I’m being held, I like to have my head underneath the person’s chin and against their chest. When I’m holding a person, I like to run my fingers through their hair or just cradle their head. It brings out the mother in me, it lets my partner feel vulnerable yet safe, and it’s a wonderful feeling.

    Wow @Catloaf that sounds amazing. I’d say both the scalp & back. I like being just held tight. Also don’t mind some leg locking, etc.

    As a professional drummer and fiber artist, as well as constant domestic tasks, my hands always ache.

    Hand holding, or even hand massage, is the everything...

  • The sides, shoulders, and back are nice areas to touch while cuddling.

  • Insufficient data, I've yet to find out.

  • I was surprised to discover how nice it was for my sides to be touched!

  • Where's the, "All except for feet" option? And the, "Belly/Chest" option? Guess I'll be choosing, "Other".... Oh snap! There's no "Other"!! 😕 Hrm...? Tbd then...

  • I’m with @Catloaf on this! We have very similar ways of cuddling it sounds like. I like nurturing the other person and making them feel safe against me.

    @quixotic_life - Ahh true, I should have put an “other” section. The chest and sides and neck are are also nice areas to be touched.

  • My back. All options are nice, but being held tightly with hands on my back is simply incredible.

    As a professional, I would love to hear the results for this to make my sessions better 🥰! Personally, from a reciprocal scale, I love my back and neck being touched gently! For my cuddlers, I love varying soft gentle strokes with more massage like pressure on their arms, back, neck, and chest! I always ask if they prefer the touch of fingertips (gentle scratch) or finger pads (soft feel)…everyone has a different preference!

  • I go off vibez … but as nurturer / giver I love to play with their hair - honeymoon cuddle - & legs … my first cuddle ever on one of these platforms was all 3

  • It took me a while to feel safe enough for this, but during my most recent session with a professional, we touched one another's faces. I don't think I could have done that without creating a connection and building rapport: I've been seeing her for just over a year now.

    The sense of being both safe and vulnerable in the same moment was incredible, and deeply emotional.

    This list is not all inclusive or allowing multiple options. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    For meetups here I most enjoy just being held. Essentially wrapped in a full body bear hug, spooning, etc. Don’t even necessarily want or need another’s hands making direct contact with any particular place on my body. Just the sense of being contained and safe is most needed. But I do like comforting contact with my back, shoulders, arms, and hair. Most other areas including my face and neck are too intimate for non-romantic partner contact.

  • When I was a kid, my mom or dad would rub my belly and chest. I still like to have those rubbed. I like all the other things, too!

  • Belly? Chest?

    I really enjoy the person burying their face in my neck and to feel their breathe on my skin as they spoon and hold me close. Holding hands during the cuddle is also great. Whether its facing inwards towards the person with my leg over theirs or spooning I love having my thigh caressed up to my hips. It's so comforting and relaxing 😌

  • I love touching soft skin

    I am a hand holder for sure. ❤️
    But I also love my back rubbed and fingers run through my hair. So relaxing and therapeutic!

  • I thoroughly enjoy head rubs, back scratches and light touches on my shoulder or back while being bear hugged. Usually intertwining legs if I’m facing the person. It’s such a great experience when you and the person your cuddling with have great cuddling chemistry and just fit together.

    100% the neck is my fave place to be touched, but there are so many great options here.

  • [Deleted User]Pneuma (deleted user)

    I love to rub and massage my partner's stomach, back, and neck.

  • I enjoyed holding hands, touching/ scratching my back. My head on their chest, just breathing in sync.

    The last person I snuggled with has been my absolute favorite of all time. My favorite position was we was laying in her bed/couch thing and I was laying on my right side. She came and layed next to me hugging me from behind nice and tight as she rubbed my chest. Amazing touch and feel.
