The A.I. doesn't cuddle. As charming as your Snapchat virtual boyfriend may seem, he can only trace and reflect your words, not trace your skin as you melt into relaxation.

The body pillow doesn't hug back. The fill count is never just right, even if you're always able to find your favorite nuzzle spot and fall asleep next to restrained fluff. You want to be held, pulled closer, and feel the warmth of someone else against you as bodies mesh.

Swiping right doesn't reveal compatible cuddlers. A hookup doesn't reveal their affectionate side. Your affectionate radiance isn't easily matched: it requires nourishment and encouragement to thrive.

I'd like to meet your inner cuddler shining at her full supernova strength. You've recognized your enjoyment of quality cuddling, found your way to a specialized sub, and just need some encouragement to be fully affectionately expressive without restraint.

Cuddling is not just foreplay or after care, but its own affectionate adventure. Free-flowing expression in an almost affectionate dance when resonating with a fellow cuddle enthusiast. Cuddle with a similar level of comfort you'd express in a relationship or enjoy a new way to explore your affectionate self.

I'm 38, single, sane, and bathe regularly. I live alone in the SoMa area of San Francisco with a gas fireplace to keep things toasty on a foggy night and two air purifiers to scrub away at least some of your worries. When not cuddling I enjoy hiking, biking around the city, drinking good coffee, training dogs for a local non-profit, watching Giants games, and exploring new restaurants. I make dark chocolate and wine as hobbies and have a good supply of both if you'd like to pair with a cuddle session.

I've had some good cuddle buddies in the past and I'm hopeful this subreddit attracts cuddle enthusiasts. I enjoy cuddlers who don't just lean against someone but instead find new ways to be wrapped up in my arms or wrapped around me. You should have good hygiene, realize when your many layers of clothing can be abrasive or inhibiting, recognize when your extra long hair presents a choking hazard, and be a generally easy-going person.
