I'm also an adult and don't have to hug anyone I don't want to. [/quote]

This is very childish and immature. There is no reason to create drama over a hug. You don’t need to like every family member, but don’t create drama at family gatherings over a stupid hug. If you are doing this at family gatherings, it’s very likely that you are the problem, not the other people you dislike. Anyone who acts like this at a family gathering does not have enough introspection to realize they are the one Instigating arguments and causing conflict in the family. [/quote]

Hard disagree. Offering a handshake or wave if that's what you're more comfortable with is not "creating drama." But getting upset over the fact that someone has chosen to greet you in a less physical way sure sounds dramatic. Why do you care? Why is it important for people to submit to having your bodies pressed together? If the person feels uncomfortable with it, you are clearly not close anyway.[/quote]
