He lāhui mākou e ola nei ma ka ʻenehana, me nā mea a pau mai nā polokalamu hāʻawi meaʻai a hiki i nā lole hoʻomaʻamaʻa e pālua i nā mea hoʻoikaika kino. ʻOiai ʻo ka moekolohe, ka pili loa o ke kanaka a me ke kanaka, ua lilo i lalo i lalo me ka ʻenehana (poina i nā polokalamu hoʻoheheʻe, aia maoli kahi mea huli i ka moekolohe. Pono mākou e ʻōlelo hou?).

Pehea ʻoe inā makemake ʻoe ma mua o kahi pilina kikohoʻe, akā? I kēia lā WiFi-ma nā wahi āpau, paʻakikī e noʻonoʻo aia kahi mākeke no kēlā-akā aia nō, ʻo ia ke kumu e ulu pono ai nā mea lawelawe ʻoihana e like me Cuddlr, Spoonr, a me Cuddle Up To Me. ʻO Cuddlr wale nō ka 240,000 mau hoʻoiho, a me 7,000 a 10,000 mau mea hoʻohana i kēlā me kēia lā, e like me ka Puke Pai o Wall Street.

ʻO ka Snuggle Buddies, kahi lawelawe snuggling i kāhea ʻia i hoʻomaka i ka 2013, ke hana nei ma 30 mau mokuʻāina ma waena o ka U.S. Maʻalahi loa ia: hiki i nā mea kūʻai aku ke kāhea i kekahi i ka spoon, caress, hug, nuzzle-mea holo, inā ʻaʻole lākou e uhaʻi i ka ʻaelike "ʻaʻohe pili kolohe". Pono nā mea kūʻai aku e ʻaelike ʻaʻole e hana i ka moekolohe, e hoʻomau ka lole, a pāpā loa ʻia i nā wahi i uhi ʻia e ka lole lalo.

He mea ʻokoʻa paha ka lawelawe i ka uku ʻana no ka pā platonic? Akā he nui nā pono olakino i ka paʻi kanaka, e like me ka hoʻēmi ʻana i kāu pae stress, hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana i kou kaomi koko, a me ka hoʻoponopono hou ʻana i nāʻiʻo o nā mākala (snuggles post-workout, ʻo wai?). (Eia, 5 mau kumu e hoʻolālā ai i ka manawa no ka cuddling.)

No laila he aha ke ʻano o ke cuddle no kahi ola? Kamaʻilio mākou me ka mea lawelawe ʻoihana ʻo Pennsylvania ʻo Becky Rodrigues, 34, ka mea i hana no Snuggle Buddies ma kahi o hoʻokahi makahiki.

Inā hele kekahi i ka laina o ka moekolohe, haʻi wau i nā palena a i ʻole hoʻololi i nā kūlana.

Helehelena: He aha kou makemake i ka poʻe e ʻike e pili ana i ka cuddling?
