I’d say a hug would most likely to be done when greeting/saying good bye. Where as you could be cuddling in bed or on the sofa?
I could be completely wrong though… |

I'd agree with this. I think it's about length and intimacy of embrace. |

I agree, a hug is a greeting usually vertical, a cuddle is normally sitting or laying down. |

Yeah defo agree with that, what about when someone is sad? I often say things like “sending hugs” but if I’m hugging for ages is it a cuddle? Or are hugs only a standing up thing?  |

Would define 'hug' as a physical form of greeting someone
Cuddle as a physical form of providing comfort/reassurance
One I can share with anyone  the other is reserved for only close companions |

"Hugs are just that a hug standing up sitting down fully clothed
Cuddles are laying in bed after the act
Sound good to me but before or after or instead of the act also good "
Definitely is good |

Yeah I think this is sort of where I’m at, except the “sending hugs” thing which is also linked to comfort/reassurance. Hmmmmm. |

A hug is more of a gesture, a familiar version of a handshake. Lasting roughly the same amount of time. Sometimes extending to an embrace during emotional moments.
A cuddle is a relaxed form of embrace and is modified for different positions. It could be spooning, or head on shoulder with arm around. Head on lap etc.
Hmmmm I wonder if I can dissect it even more and take out all the intimacy from it...  |
