As a staunch Democrat, I was (obviously) elated by last night's election results. I was out with friends. We all hugged and were merry. It was a magical night. But for some reason, when I got home, I got really depressed. I don't remember how my thoughts went there, but I got really sad that I had no SO to share the moment with (the guy I'm seeing right now was in Ohio because he was there working for Obama). I'm normally fine being single or just dating casually, but every now and then something like this happens - I have a moment I want to share with someone special, and I don't, so that makes me sad. I remembered how my ex used to pick me up and hug me so tightly when good things would happen or when we'd be seeing each other for the first time in a while (we were long distance). I miss that. I wanted that last night when Obama was announced as the winner. Yeah, all my friends and I hugged last, but it wasn't like that.
I miss having someone to hold me, someone to hug
like that. Someone that you're so happy to see that you hold them so tightly. I like the guy I'm dating now. But we aren't there yet. Plus he's out of town. A lot. So we're still in the getting-to-know-you stage because we keep "going on hiatus" when he's out of town for weeks at a time. And I'm finding myself feeling very lonely physically (and not even in a sexual way). I just want someone to hug me. I want someone to really hug me like they never want to let me go. Not since my soulmate left has someone hugged me like that. It's been too long.

I can relate ever so well. I've never been in a relationship that was local so I've always had to deal with my SO not being there for big events. Sometimes another guy friend will work just to be there. Before a big concert for example, etc... But it's not the same as having someone that special to you give you a hug that takes your breath away.... I miss that :-/
I know what you mean, but for me it's hugging and cuddling. Sometimes I just crave that closeness.
Understandable.
I had a best friend specific hug.. and how when he hugs other people like that it's like.. NO!
:/
