hi i'm annaliese and i'm the
shortcomings of the shortcomings in NYC
blog i'm going to be showing you how to
hug a short person i'll argue that this
is actually a life skill this is
something you can put on your resume so
let's just get right into it
so this first hug that you're about to
see is going to be an example of what
not to do so people make the mistake
when they're hugging someone my height
and think okay I don't have to bend down
to this person I'm just gonna let this
person hug me if you go up it's just not
going to work it's going to be awkward
you're gonna regret hugging this person
you may never hug this person again it
will just be uncomfortable so I would
say that you want to make sure that you
never go up and so this is an example of
what not to do next I'm going to be
showing you how to do this properly so
the first thing you need to ask yourself
is am I the shorter person in the
scenario or my the taller person so
let's start with the shorter person if
you're the shorter person you need to
make sure that you're raising up on your
toes and that you're always going under
just as a cardinal rule if you are
shorter in this name you never go up
secondly if you are the taller person in
this scenario you need to do a squat
you're gonna have to do some squat
exercises so that you can hug that girl
because you're going to be doing a lot
of squatting and then you're going to go
over her shoulders and kind of bring her
in almost as if she's a child but try to
make it friendly and loving so as you
can see here that's what we did now here
comes the real challenge with poise it's
a lot easier because there's no real
obstacles in your way when you're
hugging someone now unfortunately when
you're hugging a female in you're really
short you do not want to just go in and
hug this person because you're going to
get that's exactly what you're going to
get exactly what you're seeing right now
very awkward very uncomfortable what you
want to do is do the exact same thing
you would do for a meal you need to be
going up on your toes going under this
person and they need to be going over
and squatting a little bit hugging the
short person is all about compromise and
that's a really good skill to have in
your life and in hugging now you can hug
that short girl that you like but you
like don't know what to do and now you
Shorty's out there know how to hook at
all
