If u got to Islam, Islam dont allow you to even touch na mehram, you can even touch your sister or mother as well. :)
cousines are far away..
but if you will today, you can hug them on cheeks, except your wife dont try to kiss anyone :) its my advice...
Again explain, something is wrong!!
Re: Hug or not to Hug?
i hate huggy hippies...ewwww i need my space, hand shake is more than enuff
I’m never quite sure what to do. Even with female friends. Each situation is different. One person wants to hug, the other wants hugs and two kisses, that one wants hugs and three kisses, then there are people who shake hands and want two kisses, and people who shake hands and want three kisses, then I have female friends who want only hugs and I’m never sure what to do. 
what about mamoos, chachos, male grandparents??? firm handshake?
No grandparents, chachoos and mammoos, they do the hand on head thing.
Same in my family. Most of the elderly put their hand on the heads of the younger ones.
Re: Hug or not to Hug?
I hug EVERYONE, I'm a hugger and am damn good at it. Some people have suggested that I should charge a dollar a hug. This whole making a big deal out of hugging a 'na mehram' i find a little pervy, I'm just hugging you, not trying to hump you for pete's sake.
