Intimate Hug: A hug with friends is always a casual affair. But when it comes to the special someone in your life, the hug gets more intimate. In this type of hug, two lovers hear each other's heartbeats and breath.

Kiss Me Hug: A lot can happen over a hug. Actually, a hug can be an invitation to a lot more intimate things. Romantic escapades usually start with a hug and lead wild fantasies. So you can also use a hug as an invitation for a kiss or much more.
