Let's just cuddle

A woman's suggestion to her partner, that she should cuddle someone nonsexually (usually in place of more erotic action). Unfortunately, this suggestion is usually rejected, willfully misinterpreted, or completely ignored.

My ex called me a frigid teaser every time I said "Let's just cuddle."

Watching scary movies makes me hugry.

<33333333

An exaggerated version of the less than three emoticon (heart, love, or luv) used in online forums and chatrooms. Used to indicate extremely strong love or attraction; akin to the multiple hearts drawn over/around a lovestruck cartoon character.

If read aloud, this symbol is best pronounced "lotsa-hearts" or "loooove": the number of threes may vary, sometimes growing too long for a literal mathematical reading.

I <33333333 you so much!
I <33333333 it when we hug...
I <33333333 pizza.
I <33333333 that teddy bear you gave me!
