Is it appropriate to cuddle with your 40 year old son for a long time?

I am speechless.

well I had a clinets son who did that. and I also thought it was strange.. but what got me was the daughter use to massage her.. including her boobs in front of workers.. (yes it was reported but they found nothing wrong with it from what the daughter said.. ))
but yes stop cuddling him.. my other thought he may be gay

When my mother was living my brothers would come home hugging her tight, than ask her to fix their favorite foods and talk, laugh have good times than the big hug when its time to go but nothing like what you are mentioning or have I heard others say they want to do this with their mother.

Wait. What? For what reason? Is he sick like terminal? I find it a little weird. Ohn balls! I find it really freaking strange. Not appropriate unless he's terminal or needs comforting.

I think it's on the inappropriate side. My brother who is almost 40 has never done anything close to that with are mom. Or any of my older cousins with their moms.

My guess is that he does not have much human contact (touch and/or support) if he does not have a girlfriend. It might be good for him to talk to someone. You might suggest that there is more room on the couch and you can sit right next to each other. That is only if you are comfortable. It does not matter what other people think if you are not comfortable you should not have to comply.

I think you should definitely talk to him as an adult mabe at the kitchen table and just explain how you feel.

My son has gone through some tough times this last yearand he has done better when I have hugged and maybe a little longer th usual. He is a litlle to big, as am I, to squeeze into one chair comfortably.

lol

No, just NO

Aww I think it's sweet. It's still your son! Most of us long for the days when they were still sweet & cuddly & were sad when they pulled away from us. I would never turn down the love & attention of my child(ren) You are blessed.

   Reminds me of this book!!!!
