Yes, I have friends who would use me as a pillow. haha and yeah they would sit next to me and hug me. matter of fact, I would be the distant one and they would tell me to sit next to them or come a little closer. Also, some have borrwed clothes from me too. and once one friend was about to put on a sock that i just took off until I told her that i would prefer her to put on a fresh sock. She ask me why does it smell? lol i told her probably.
