I've Been In A Situation Somewhat Like This. I Have 2 Older Brothers And They Were About To Leave For

I've been in a situation somewhat like this. I have 2 older brothers and they were about to leave for a tournament so I hugged them since I wouldn't see them for a while. They were riding with some friends and one asked "where's my hug?" Frankly, I didn't even know his name, he was just one of the many guys that are on the team. I didn't want to hug him, but I didn't want to seem rude, so I made an obnoxiously rude comment that could only be taken as a joke, "No, you smell worse than that time my dog got sprayed by a skunk." He didn't smell, but everyone burst out laughing, and a few of them high fived me and they started ragging on the guy.

Now, this was a different situation and I'm pretty sure he was only saying that as a joke, but making jokes like that has always been how I respond to things like that. If you don't want to be rude, say something so rude and laugh, so it has to be taken as a joke. If you don't want to be obnoxious, be so obnoxious it's funny. Say he smells. Say you don't want cooties. Say you have a skin eating desaese that's incredibly contagious. If he STILL hasn't gotten the hint and won't leave it alone, than be a complete asshole, because at that point he's also being one.

Hope this helps!

srsly tho this is absolutely a thing that dudes do all the f***ing time

like where if he knows a girl doesn’t necessarily want to give him a hug, he will trap her in this position in front of witnesses where she has 2 options- both of which are undesirable for her, while simultaneously desirable for him

if she doesn’t want to hug him, whatever she does, it will suck for her.

she can 1. say nah and be the fucking asshole in front of other ppl or 2. forsake her corporeal boundaries and allow unwanted intimate contact

it’s a f***ing trap
