Hugs

I don't understand what people mean by "fake hugs" or "empty gesture hugs". Do you mean like when people hug you when they say hello? I never liked those hello hugs; they feel very invasive, and they never ask first.

I do like hugs in general though, from friends and family, but I really like them to be tight squeezes.
I think they mean halfhearted hugs.
