@KateDoskocilova A big teddy bear especially the ones make me feel at home. I love big teddy bears.
@DeLeeAh that sounds so great, deleeah!! :3
@KateDoskocilova
It has been a long time since i hugged a plush. I don't remember having any emotional response.
@Gettingbettertoday that makes sense. :) it's okay that you didn't have any kind of emotional response to it!
@KateDoskocilova
Yes it does. I am pretty much damaged as far as emotions go. Not only don't i get a feeling i don't know if i should or not. Am I under sensitive or are others that have feeling for inanimate objects over sensative?
@Gettingbettertoday i wouldn't go as far as to say people who have emotional responses to things like plushies over sensitive, but i also wouldn't say that someone who doesn't have emotional responses to inanimate objects (plushies) is under sensitive. people have different responses to different things and that is completely okay and valid :D
@KateDoskocilova
My family and I would always go for a real animal. In fact, there is a 30-lbs dog warming up my back as I type. My grandson has a practically life-size panther called Simone. He uses her as an extra blankie. Plushies were not that popular when I was growing up. When it was my turn to raise kids, we had a menagerie at home. I guess I am too down-to-earth!
@Fradiga that sounds very nice! :D
@KateDoskocilova Oh I absolutely love when I hug a plushie, it makes me feel happy. Especially my squishmallows
@PhoenixButterfly97 i can relate! i love hugging plushiesss
@KateDoskocilova
Hugging a teddy bear or plushy makes me feel safe and comforted.💖
