Cuddling between two people, free from romantic or sexual desire, for either emotional closeness and sense of security, or physical comfort and warmth.
I was feeling lonely last night, so my best friend and I had some platonic cuddling.
Hugging, snuggling, massage, and kissing all fall under the cuddling umbrella. There’s no right or wrong way to cuddle, but these common cuddling positions can pave the way to an epic cuddling session.
