I usually do, yes. Just this morning when I dropped my dad at the airport, he said, "Tell <DH's Name> I love him.

And I did.

I think it goes along with telling the second person about your interaction with the first person.

I can't imagine telling DW "I ran into Larla at CVS. She said they're buying a boat." And not adding, "She said to say hi."

In fact, I've probably said "She said to say hi" a few times when Larla didn't actually.

I always convey a verbal message, and if someone says, "Give 'em a hug from me," I say, "Larla says Hi!"

If it’s someone I’m close to I absolutely hug a bit extra and say “Oh and this is one Jean said to give you”

If I remember to do so. Which is probably less than half the time.

Sure.

I saw Larla today, she’s doing great, and said to say hi to you.

Only when children are involved.

I give a hug if we are hugging friends already. One arm hug if we’re not.

You find it annoying to hear that people your husband speaks to wish you well? (because that's what it means).

I deliver the specific message but don't do the actual hugging.

I do. I don’t give them an actual hug or kiss from them but I will tell them and say they said hi or that they asked how they were doing.
