Is there anything quite like a hug? I remember the first time I got a hug from a female friend. I was a teenager and it was the last day before holidays. I didn’t expect it and was smiling for days afterwards. Cuddling can leave you feeling just like that: happy, safe, warm, cared for, loved. It’s no wonder it’s such a popular sleep ASMR search phrase on the Tube.

There doesn’t have to be anything dirty or suggestive about it. It’s just someone else that’s willing to come up close to you, share some skin with, as well as some body heat and letting yourself melt into their presence. In need of a cuddle to sleep? These videos are almost as good as the real thing. Hope they help you tonight.
