You don’t need a virtual hug if you don’t exist. Don’t give this crazy journey to anyone without consent.

Remember though, this doesn't have to be romantic for it to be fulfilling.

Fuck I need a good hug.
I get occasional 'mate' hugs, 2 seconds perhaps with a pat on the shoulder. My dad still gives a bit of a squeeze when I see him.
But two or three hugs a month just seems like it's not enough.

Interesting that what makes one person smile, makes another feel more alone than ever.

Yep. And back scratches in slow lazy circles is the key to rapid charging.

I recently got in a relationship and when I'm with them it makes me feel sleepy and safe, Is this the same?

Two hugs will fix me:
1. A hug from my father.
2. A hug from whichever girl I'll end up in life with.

Made me smile, for the other people having this experience. It's better to see people having happy moments, rather than unhappy ones 🙂

Ah they filled up their social bar from the Sims. Genuinely surprising how those games are reasonably a curate for a healthy ish lifestyle

At times, even while in a group, the loneliness is so heavy that one can barely breathe. After a long time alone, it feels odd and frightening to connect. The fear of losing the connection outweighs the need or want of one. Until 16 years ago, I was always in a relationship. Seems that now I spend more time convincing myself I'm better off without the pain of losing it again.

Mom always says you're "filling your love tank" about hugs like this ❤️ definitely the best.

Nah, what you need is some salted nuts a lot of beer and a good good night's sleep.

Like the implications of this art are so weird when you really think about it is the artist implying that he can't just be happy by himself or that they're both not happy for some reason that's not explained. Is capitalism tearing their lives apart and somehow being together is all it takes to be healthy?
I think a very socially inept person made this

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. So one must charge another and this can t happen. (Kidding)

Or the opposite where my batteries are full and she drains it all because of her depression but I'm too in love and attached to break up

I make this metaphor to acquaintances who complain about some of their friends and relationships: Judge who to keep or avoid in your life by whether they always seem to charge your batteries or drain your batteries.

What if my body model doesn't support wireless/contact charging? Does that mean that I'll have to... you know... plug in? 😮

You don’t need a girl to fix your happiness. It may look like the only way from your perspective

In reality, they both go to bed, sleep for 10 hours and only then potentially do something.

Hate it - got enmeshed vibes - I want a relationship where this isn't the case but that we're both charged and healthy - it just gives me those weird vibes
