Don't feel funny...my dad hugged me once maybe in his life and my mom...never...however, when I got older and I mean in my forties...is when I finally felt comfortable giving someone a hug who needed it...I think it had to do with having children and wanting them to be more loving then my family...anyhow...don't feel odd...there are alot of people who don't hug...but I know my dad loved me and my mom too...
