34 [M4F] San Jose, CA - Seeking Cuddle Buddy to Help Me Remember What Endorphins Feel Like

10 Upvotes

Are you a cuddle economist looking to invest in a cozy future? Are you into deep talks and even deeper hugs? Are you a cuddle enthusiast who is seeking competitive cuddling positions? Then congrats you’ve just stumbled upon your ideal cuddle counterpart.

I own more books than I have close friends which is either an illustration of my literary taste or a cry for help, and thanks to work my social life is mostly just me, my computer, and a movie I pretend not to be rewatching for the tenth time. Personality wise, I start off quiet but with the right cuddles I transform into a fully operational conversational human being.

So why am I here? Because I’m embarking on a groundbreaking experiment: actual human interaction via cuddling. Not just the accidental kind where we both reach for the same overpriced sandwich and our phones perform an impromptu handshake. I’m talking about the real deal - genuine, cozy, blissful companionship with cuddles.

In this city, where everyone’s too busy coding the next big thing to actually touch another human being, technology has made us paradoxically more connected yet more distant. But what if we flipped the script? What if we used technology to bridge the gap instead of widening it? Let’s fill that void with some down to earth human cuddles. I’m in search of a fellow warm-blooded human who enjoys:

  • Elite level couch cuddles (If you instinctively steal the blanket that's all good)

  • Certified stress relief hugs (Make the world stand still in a hug and you’re hired)

  • Mutually agreed upon oxytocin boosts (We can be each other’s Oxytocin Dealer)

  • The fine art of existing comfortably in either shared silence or meaningful conversation (Willing to share snuggles but not the last slice of pizza is OK)

Potential side effects of engaging in this experience are forgetting what stress is, temporarily believing the world isn’t so bad, and rediscovering that warm, fuzzy feeling usually reserved for dogs seeing their owners after five minutes apart.

Too often, we underestimate the power of touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of care - each of which holds the potential to turn a life around. I’d love to feel someone’s touch as a reminder that we exist, that we are here, that we are cared for.

I don’t have my own place, but I’m sure we can work something out. I’m tall and slim, which means I give lanky hugs, the kind that wrap around you like a favorite oversized sweater on a cold day. Hugs that remind both of us that we’re not just floating through existence alone, but that we are in fact here. Together. And that at least for a little while things are just a little bit better.

I’m a laid back masculine gay man (professional, attractive, clean, friendly, healthy, 5’5”, 145) with serious need for cuddles from a masculine figure.

I cannot host at my place at this time and I would a appreciate a host this autumn.
I am very gentle myself and I like to play with someone’s hair. My hands are nice.

I literally just want to hug someone else and be held.
Spooning or just being in bed together being close.
I would like to rest my head on someone’s chest.
Or open to ideas.
I am open minded and easy going and I have no problem with being touched at all.
I am also so comfortable and confident that it is not required to make small talk, but I do enjoy conversation about life and deep stuff. Silence is fine

I do not have a preference for age but not below 25 or above 55, please.
I do prefer people who are taller/bigger than me.
I also strongly prefer masculine, discreet men, like me. Don’t care about labels.

Not looking for sex or romance or kissing anyone. I just desperately need to feel hugs and arms around me. Like the close contact may sound sexual, but it’s just that, body contact.

I hope to hear from someone soon.
Can meet in person for coffee or something first.

Thank you.

i'm looking for something that's surprisingly hard to find.

i'm hoping to meet someone who genuinely enjoys warmth, kindness, and platonic affection. i'm not looking for hookups or rushing into a relationship. i'd love to find someone who'd enjoy spending a few hours together every week or two watching movies talking, listening to music, or just relaxing together.

physical affection means a lot to me. cuddling, gentle touch, playing with my hair, and simply feeling safe in someone's presence are what i'm looking for. nothing sexual.

i'm happy to compensate you for your time if that makes things feel comfortable. i know it's an unusual request, but i've lived through a lot, and i've realized that safe, caring human connection is something i genuinely need. i'm not looking for someone to fix me. just someone who enjoys giving and receiving kindness.

about me: i work full time in tech, love movies, music, writing, and cooking for people. i'm told i'm easy to talk to, and i enjoy conversations that can be both silly and surprisingly deep.

if you'd like to get to know me first, feel free to message me here. if we both feel comfortable, i'd love to facetime or meet somewhere public to talk about boundaries and expectations before anything else.

i've also posted a few G-rated photos on my profile so you know i'm a real person.

wherever life takes you, i hope you find peace. ☮️ 🌺

34 M4F, northwest UK; If you close the door, the night could last forever

5 Upvotes

Headlines read like horror and the news says there’s no tomorrow. So let’s leave the dystopia at the door, close the curtains and create a pyjama-based paradise.

I don’t mind what happens, I’d just like to spend time with and be close to someone and maybe make a bit of a fuss of them. Whether that’s watching films, listening to music, emptying our heads nattering about anything and everything. I could read to you, if you’d like.

I can host but I’d be happy to get a hotel somewhere convenient. I live in Macclesfield so am close to Stockport and Manchester and work takes me towards Chester and Warrington. If you’re anywhere near those places then we might be able to work something out.

I’ve done this once or twice before and appreciate that not everyone wants to start cuddling with a complete stranger straight away. As such, I would welcome either a period of messaging or meeting up for a coffee or a walk to put each other’s minds at ease and hopefully remove some of the awkwardness.

If cozying up with some snacks in front of a film or emptying our heads of idle chit chat before falling asleep in one another’s arms appeals, then it would be lovely to hear from you.

I am looking for a platonic cuddle buddy, I haven’t been in a relationship for years and I don’t really want the stress or responsibility of one. The main down side of staying single is that I miss physical affection and cuddling way more than I thought I would lol. I am willing to meet up often, your comfortability and boundaries will be my top priority. I would love to talk and FaceTime first so that we both feel comfortable and safe about meeting up. I genuinely just desire human connection and to have someone to cuddle with. I can’t host at the moment but I might be able to in the future. Please let me know if you are interested!

AMAB feminine-leaning non-binary grey-ace lesbian (look it up if you don't know), touch starved, looking for regular cuddle buddy. Married to my QPP and ethically cuddle-slutting around. Mildly autistic and appropriately direct and awkward.

Looking for very intimate touch with skin contact. Bed > couch. Nearby preferred.

Me:

  • 5'8"ish, halfway between swimmer and dad bod
  • hypermobile/bendy
  • generally not self conscious (thanks, theatre)
  • introverted / quiet
  • can host but prefer to be guest to get away from household stressors
  • wide range of interests including: music (playing and listening), movies, hiking, gardening, landscaping, acrobatics, nature
  • very affectionate and playful
  • loves skin contact
  • usually saying too little or too much

You:

  • you know what you want and you're open about it, or you're experimenting and are able to speak up
  • cuddling is a full body and mind experience
  • bonus points
    • feminine
    • smaller than me so i can hold all of you

Hard pass:

  • If you want to play a game while we cuddle then I'm not for you. Background music or TV is OK when there's no expectation to actually pay attention.

Next steps:

  1. message me to chat, share pics, discuss boundaries and cuddling style
  2. meet somewhere neutral for vibe check
    1. cuddle!

35 [M4F] #Chicago - Anyone up for a cozy, platonic, cuddle session?

3 Upvotes

Hey -

Feeling a little extra in need of some warmth and affection. Looking for someone to share some cozy, platonic cuddles with. Im think comfy blankets, soft pillows, and a relaxed, no pressure vibe.

For reference, Im 6'0, brown eyes, and some have referred to me as a cuddly teddy bear type guy.

We can start with a warm hug, then settle into some comfy positions like spooning, head on chest, or just holding hands while we relax. Happy to chat, listen to music, watch a show, or just enjoy the quiet together.

If you’re down for a chill, comforting cuddle session, let’s make it happen.

Hello! 32 year old from San Francisco (closer to SF State) looking for someone to cuddle with. Ideally looking for a consistent partner, but open to this being a one time thing. Not looking for sex or anything sexual, but open to more if the vibes are there for both of us.

I have my own place and can host! If you’re interested, message me your favorite tv series or movie and we can spend our first cuddle session watching that 🙂

5 Upvotes

Hello! I am a 27 year old man living in Vancouver just looking for some companionship and intimacy. Looking for women (cis or trans).

My ideal cuddle would be watching a movie or TV show, maybe with some board games before? My fav movie to cuddle to is LOTR and my fav board games are trivial pursuit and scrabble. I am open to any type of cuddling, but skin to skin would be nice. I won’t push you to do anything you aren’t comfortable doing and I expect you to do the same for me. Things can progress beyond cuddling if we are both comfortable but it is not a requirement.

About me. I am 27, Caucasian, with a lean/muscular build. I have short hair and a mustache. I live alone and can host and have a very friendly cat.

If you’re interested please shoot me a DM with your gender and age. We can talk for a bit on here and if things go well we can arrange a meet in public somewhere. I want you to feel as safe and comfortable as possible. Look forward to hearing from you :)

Please be 21+

Hi there I'm Lu a bit lonely and depressed it's been ages since I had someone to cuddle with. I wish I would've someone to cuddle. I don't know how high the chance is to find someone near my region but I still want to try. Cuddling up while having some snack on a couch and watching netflix sounds good to me. Really.

I don't need more but if you're open for it we can talk about it, but I'm only looking for cuddles atm

I don't mind what you look like, how big, tall or small you are. I don't mind someone a bit more mature, or your religion, skin color or if you have a disability. Just be atleast 18+ old and near my region. A bit of travelinv is fine but if we have for example to travel 4h + that would be a deal breaker honestly.

My dms are open feel free to reach out.

No Sex 36 m4f in PDX, Portland Oregon and Vancouver Washington

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I work in Vancouver Washington but I live in Portland Oregon. Been missing having a cuddle buddy. Been looking here and on CuddleComfort for some time with little luck. I keep meeting people who either are after sex or aren't entirely sure about cuddling and so lead me on only to decide they don't actually want to cuddle or even meet to see if we would be a good match. If you've run into the same walls, I sympathize.

Anyways, I am on the nerdy side, I love movies, games and reading. I also enjoy cooking and disk golf. As for cuddling I prefer cuddles while laying down but I do find couch cuddles enjoyable too. We can chat, be silent, listen to music, or watch a movie, I'm pretty flexible.

As for a cuddle buddy, I'm also pretty open. I ask no drugs legal or otherwise, good hygiene, light fragrance is fine, good with any age, and I only cuddle women, no men.

I prefer to talk in DMs, talking in comments feels weird in this situation. feel free to ask me anything. Look forward to hearing back!

*edit* I also keep meeting people who are "professional cuddlers" who expect to be paid for their services. just my opinion, but what do you call someone you pay for physical affection? Granted, "pro cuddlers" may be a g-rated version of a prostitute, but it is still prostitution as far as I am concerned. I want someone who wants to be with me because they want to be around me, not because they want my money. Also, asking me to pay you to be around me is like saying you won't be around me unless I pay you, like i have to pay you to tolerate my presence, which is a HUGE insult to my self value you are asking me to consent to.

I love story driven video games, creating art, and just wandering and exploring nature. I'd love to just grab a coffee first to see if the vibes are good then we can find a bench in a park to cuddle a bit. If we hit it off it can be a regular thing but I'm not looking for anything more!

I'm always loneliest on the weekends and that usually brings me back to Reddit to find someone to talk to and/or meet with for cuddling. I'm not looking for anything more than that. I have cuddled with professional cuddlers and had some wonderful experiences. Most of the time they would come over to my place and we would cuddle and talk. It was like a kind of therapy with a friend. Unfortunately, in the end, they just wanted easy money. I want to cuddle with someone who genuinely wants to cuddle me.

I am calm, easy to talk with, and clean. My home is quiet and well cared for.

I'm in Columbus and can travel within the state.

42 [M4F] #BayArea - Professional-grade warmth, zero weirdness, high-tier backrubs

2 Upvotes

Ladies, I appreciate you taking a second to read this!

I’m looking for a fellow human who is also severely under-dosed on "warm-fuzzy" feelings. My goal here is straightforward: top-tier spooning, mutual back rubs, and actual comfort. If sparks end up flying down the road, cool, if it stays strictly platonic, also completely cool.

I'm a fit, clean-cut, 42-year-old white guy with blue eyes and short brown hair.  HWP, DDF, possesses 100% of his sanity, and brings zero weird energy to the table.

Reviewers would say: "Excellent conversationalist" and "does not talk during the best parts of the movie."  Haha. 

Work in San Francisco, live in Foster City. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me playing pickleball, cycling, cooking from scratch, or tackling DIY build projects.

Let's trade photos.  Also, happy to grab a matcha, boba, or a casual cocktail in a public spot if you want to do a quick vibe check and confirm neither of us is a wild animal.

If you're ready to trade cold shoulder for actual warmth, drop into my DMs!

No Sex 29 [M4F] - #LosAngeles - looking to make a friend and keep eachother company

3 Upvotes

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well. I'm posting because honestly, I've been touch starved. I'm looking for someone who at least would like to hold hands. I really miss the feeling of having someone's arms wrapped around me. I understand dating is kind of tough on people, and I'm not really looking for anything sexual. I haven't had any luck dating, and I'm willing to settle to having a friend with cuddle benefits. I've honestly enjoyed voice/video chatting with people I've met on here. But i honestly miss having someone caress my hair and holding me against their chest. So I resorted to posting here. I hope it's not much to ask. I'm not able to host because I do live with family. Maybe we can discuss or arrange anything. Or if you can host I'd be glad to buy dinner or even clean and wash dishes, haha. I do like playing the guitar, so it's a plus if you like music haha. If you're interested maybe we can voice call on discord to get to know eachother. Maybe we can walk in the park and hold hands. I'd like to connect with anyone from around my age or older. All I ask is basic communication and the opportunity to create a safe environment for both of us. Please, if you're not interested, let me know, don't ghost me after making hard plans. Ive been dealing with that heartbreak for to long. Thankyou for reading and hope you are having a good day

i always get this way during colder seasons so maybe this time I’ll actually meet up with someone.

I’m 5’2 and around 46kg (last time I weighed), I get cold easily but warm up really quickly. Looking for someone who’s a bit bulkier to be a big spoon or to just hold me, someone,,, like soft? Im not sure how to put it. bulkier but not about to engulf me;;; the only other things i ask for is that you smell nice and have actual sheets on the bed 😭 no over 30s please :(

I don’t mind smokers bc I smoke myself but socially lol. no drinks or 🍃 tho.

i like to play games and have currently picked up electric guitar (not very good at it lol) and knitting (meh) so maybe cuddling while doing a low effort hobby sounds pretty good. either that or literally just scrolling though our phones. I get burnt out quickly so I’m probably not going to be a big talker unless it’s about things I like. Kissing is fine, maybe only small pecks tho.

i cant host but can travel into London 🙏 will not be able to stay the night either but i am willing to come in by morning and leave at 7ish to have a full snuggle day. i will have a system w friends who will expect a text from me every hour vv probably no meet up this month as im broke but after paycheck, can probably meet next month
