How do I explain to people that hugging stuff makes you warm without sounding like a creep/idiot?

but for now I have to stick to hugging my Pillow-Pet that I bring to school for warmth.

Not trying to be mean, but you are pretty much past that creepy point.


Every so often a topic comes around that makes it hard not to judge people. Not even just from OP, but a few others in this thread as well. So many concerns.

I think plushies and pillow pets are cute and all, I have several myself, but I don't bring them to school/work with me, I leave them at home
I don't think it's childish, i think it's kind of cute actually, but you can't deny it's against social norms, and people are going to judge him for it

Give them a loving hug with your snake in between their two great summer hams, you pusillanimous individual!!!

Bringing a comfort object outside the home at the age of 14 is concerning. It's like bringing a blankie. It implies that you need comfort throughout the school day because you are still extremely dependent on mommy and daddy. A 14 year old kid should be able to go to school, socialize, and not invade peoples personal space and touch them inappropriately for 'warmth'.

I don't need mommy to survive the school day. I don't need to 'grow up'. I'll wear a sweater and talk to the people around me. It's basically like saying "if you think bringing a pacifier to school at the age of 17 is weird you need to grow up". That's not how this works.

I used to subconsciously slide my hands under my girlfriends arm pits when we cuddled because my hands were always cold. Is that weird too?

Nah, if that was the case we would all be banned for making fun of each others' looks in real life pictures.

Well you're both in a relationship, you've both formed a very trusting and very physical bond, you're already cuddling, and the armpits are one of the warmest parts of the body, so no, it's not weird.

You know who REALLY sounds like robo noob?
