Cuddling Dilemna

I am asking for opinions here and in particular from my female friends.
My question is the following, "Is it possible to have a cuddle buddy"?

It is winter and it is a time for fireplaces, red wine, Nora Jones and cuddling and chatting, it is definitely not a time to be alone unless you have two or three good books. Maybe you are a Kindle person as such are electronically bound to some me time.


I am not.

I need people and in particular do not want to be alone at the moment, I don't see the problem with a cuddle buddy, but maybe I am being selfish.
Is cuddling too intimate?
Is it only possible to cuddle with a partner that you are in a relationship, sexual or not, with or is it possible to snuggle with a friend or even a stranger?

How would a woman feel threatened if asked by a male friend to cuddle?

I have noticed that people do not seem to hug as much as they did 10 years ago, are we now moving to a society where we have less contact with humans and prefer to deal and communicate electronically? Has Apple and Blackberry killed off popping in for coffee and a chat?

So in closing, will you cuddle with me?

I Love You

What is this love that we speak so glibly of?


I have seen more broken hearts and disillusioned people than I care to and I have myself felt and lived with it. But, and this but is of paramount importance, I have seen love, I have seen couples smiling and laughing and in love and it gives me hope.

Perhaps I have been looking too hard?
Maybe I have to let time and God heal me completely before I am able to accept another into my life?
Or could it be that I have to let go and just concentrate on my girls?

There is no answer and I do not the fate that awaits me, so I must simply move on and not ponder what is to be or might be or cannot be.
I do know I yearn for a companion, someone to share my joys, experience my excitement, comfort my sorrows and hold my hand as I move forward.

It is not just a physical yearning, a lust or sexual encounter I seek, it is a personal bonding and someone to share a meal, a moment and so much more.

So if you are out there, if you feel the same and if the time is right for us, maybe we will meet and I will be able to say, "Hi, I'm Ted, may I have the honour of cooking a meal for you"
