Is it normal to cuddle your friends?

Depends.It depends

Yes, cuddling with friends can be a totally platonic way to show affection or feel cozy. Whether it feels normal depends on the people involved and their boundaries.

Some friends are naturally cuddly; others prefer a high-five and a respectful amount of personal space. Both are normal. A cuddle doesn’t automatically mean there’s romantic interest—it can just feel comforting and affectionate.

The key is that everyone genuinely wants it. If you’re unsure, ask, and don’t take a friend’s preference for less touching as rejection. Friendship comes in many textures, apparently including blanket burritos.
