I don't talk to anything about sex or anything. I think its weird that people do, like on tibb there was this thread once about people asking their parent about when they lost their virginity. I have no idea how you can do it!

Is anyone else like I am? I feel like I 'm the only one who doesn't hug my family. :/

I was brought up in a very undemonstrative family - we never hugged, kissed or said "I love you", but with my own children, I have always told them how much I love them, how proud I am of them, and how much they mean to me, but having said that I've always believed actions speak louder than words, and its what you DO for your family that shows true love. Anyone can say "I love you", but the way you behave towards someone is what really counts.
