Cuddling ...an Art form

While resting her head upon my shoulder, a small grin plays along her lips. Eyes are closed, face is relaxed. "Red" is in a world of complete bliss. She is warm and content, wrapped in the cocoon of my arms like a blanket on a cold rainy day. You see Red is often complaining to herself of being to cold. (Bad circulation issues, I guess)I, on the other hand happen to be her perfect foil. Generating heat like no body's business. It has been theorized that the heat of my body is generated from the furnace that is my soul. True or not, it is a nice thought just the same. :-D As I'm laying beside Red, a feeling of total contentment has surrounded me as well. As my eyes drift over Red's form, I observe that she is on the very edge of sleep. Smiling, my mind begins to drift, as it so often does. I start to wonder. "Do all guys know you have to take steps to be this happy?" A willing lady is very important, but there is some work involved.

Cuddling, it seems is an art form like anything else. To me this is funny, because my name is "ART", and I happen to be good at cuddling. Anyway; Cuddling is an art form because it is a physical manifestation of trust between to or more persons. The more trust one feels towards an individual the more relaxed.
Believe it or not there is more to cuddling with a person than being next to them with arms encompassing them. When it is known that a opportunity may present it self. The following steps are taken. A little thought is put into the type of clothes I will be wearing. (The softer to the touch the better.) Showering and oral hygiene is a must. Who wants to get closer to a person who smells bad. Breath, especially can be a real killer to a cuddling experience. Nothing like getting close to someone, then to find that all of a sudden your eyes are watering, nose is flaring and mouth has clamped shut trying not to breathe in the toxic fumes, while at the same time trying not to cough and gag in the persons face. Yeah...that's comforting. :-D
Body prep. is one thing. Preparation of the mind is another. (Sorry fellas but yeah, you have to think ahead to be good at cuddling) Paying attention to what has been discussed in the past, and what has happened sense you last saw the person your meeting helps. If you have similar shows, books, and common interests of any kind help too. To be able to be flexible in what subjects you talk about...priceless. Listen to what the lady is talking about, you don't have to agree with everything, but it helps to keep an open mind. This is not the time to debate something you might not like. You can disagree, but don't make a fuss about it. It is good to have a difference of opinion sometimes, doesn't mean you have to give loud voice to it every time. Maybe one of the most important things we do in getting the ball rolling, is the hug. You know that first hug of greeting, that says hello, I'm glad your here. A lot of guys crush a girl into them, without regard for spines, or breasts. Others are to soft barley putting their arms around a girl, like she was someone to avoid. Try for a happy medium. A good way to proceed would be to let her initiate the hug, then you know how hard or soft to give your own. NEVER lift them up. Hold on to them, make them feel wanted, but don't lift. The only exception to this is if she jumps into you with excited vigor, then it is all good. Heck you may even be able to do the lift and spin if the mood is right. :-D
Remember the idea is to have fun, be relaxed, and to have her relax. Once this is done you will be very happy with the other's company for hours on end. Talking chit-chat, watching a movie, or just the fact the other is by your side happy and content in your company.
