>Feel nothing when hugging
You've probably done that rookie mistake some adults do where they confuse thought for feeling. Happened to me for decades mate. Example:
>You get a hug after needing the hug
>You expect to 'feel' something
>You feel nothing

It's because you think you're supposed to get an emotion 'inside'. That's not what hugs are meant to do. You're meant to feel a hug through physicality. You feel the body against your body, that's it. Whether that evokes an emotional feeling in you or not isn't the point. And in fact if you expect a feeling to happen, and it doesn't happen, that's actually normal because trying to expect a feeling to happen at the time you want it is as silly as expecting a fart or a sneeze to happen at a specific time you desire.

No one says "At 6:30pm I will sneeze." And they sneeze. That does not happen.
No one says "at 4:32am I'll feel an involuntary fart and I'll fart" it does not work like that. Though some people can force the fart but good luck to them they often overshoot their mark and SHIT themselves.

So it's silly to seek a hug and tell yourself "when I am hugged I should feel content, relaxed, happy". Doesn't work like that. The hug is meant for physical enjoyment not mental. Though it can be mentally enjoyed at times when the mood aligns incidentally.

The reason people get this shit confused is because they spend time in fantasy land, typically as teens or early adults, they start being ruminative and daydreamy, and they forget how that shit works and they feel "stuck" in themselves.

The way to get unstuck is to get back to reality. And to do that you need to stop relying on your mind, rely on your body. The body takes you back, through bodily activities. Most people say "gym" but it doesn't need to be gym. It can be anything. Crafting, survivalism, DIY, camping, hiking, boating, urban exploring, whatever the hell you want bro
