I could see myself possibly doing it when I was younger, and not married. I understand the need to feel someone close to you, even in a non-sexual way. To each their own. If the customer and the cuddler are both satisfied, and happy, whats the harm?
I understand the craving for nurturing human touch. It is very different from the desire for sex (for those of you who are simplistically equating it). It is more like what children get from their parents. Most adults get this need met by hugging (not snuggling) their friends, siblings and other relatives, partners and children. I would even say it is natural to go without "snuggling" for many single people (because they are adults, not children). Snuggling is not a necessity, IMO.
I guess I feel sad for people who have so little human contact in their lives that they have to pay strangers to get a concentrated dose of something they could be getting frequently for free if they had closer relationships with their families and friends.
That is the real issue. Well said.

Maybe they attended a school of Holistic Healing and/or completed classes in that area.

Disagree. You'd be surprised how many top-level, high-ranking professionals, in stressful positions that require long hours and specialized skills are starved for touch.
The Cuddling Professionals with get decent business from folks with decent salaries. They're fulfilling a basic human need.
No. $60.00 for this? If someone is by themselves that's can be used to go out somewhere and socialize, Increasing the odds of meeting someone for any purpose from friendship to a relationship to just a workout buddy. It's creepy this concept paying someone to cuddle. It seems like every aspect of human interaction can be substituted with a service now-For a price. Weird stuff.
But now I recall that I've dated a couple guys who had not been in a relationship for a while. And I did end up "cuddling" with them initially just to sort of calm them down and get them back into the swing of things.
So although I wouldn't participate in charging/paying for this service, I think it might serve a legitimate need for people.
The more digitized interaction is becoming for humans, I wonder if this may end up growing into a full scale business model, complete with shareholders.
What women wouldn't want to be cuddled by some hot dude? Lol
Personally, it's weird.
I wonder why a woman would pay for someone to cuddle them. I suppose maybe it would be just pure non-sexual in nature. I know for me it's hard to cuddle a woman without sportin some serious wood....

So, it's less pitiful if these people have good jobs? The fact that you even mentioned that says a lot about you.

Agreed. She's money hungry with no desire for a REAL job, unless it's feeding off someone's vulnerability.
