Is it normal to hug a pillow while sleeping?

I'm 18, and still like to hug a pillow while going to sleep. I don't get lonely or nervous, but there's still something comfortable about it. Does anyone else do this?

    I'm the same way!! When I was little it used to be a stuffed animal, but now it's a pillow. It's just comfy :)

    Yeah, probably because you're used to doing it. So anything that deviates from this norm wouldn't feel right.
    I think you should take it further and give your pillow girlfriend (or boyfriend) a name.
    I have a friend with a pillow girlfriend. And it's not weird at all.

  • That's pretty funny. I agree, it is more comfortable hugging something. But nothing beats having your leg around someone you love legs and your arm around them.

      • Aww c'mon, that's not true. I'm sure you'll find someone or someone will find you. Just don't think too much about it and it's bound to happen.

          I'm sure that's true, but I haven't had my first anything... yet.

          • Don't worry, you're not the only one in that situation. I hope your first in everything will be with someone you love and the person loves you as well.

              I hope so, too. I'm not the one who's like, "I want my first kiss or I want to lose my virginity so badly!" type person. But then again, I don't want to get too old.

    I'm 18 and I still sleep with my teddy bear *cough* pretending it's a boyfriend/lover*cough*. At a friend's house, I hug the pillow too. Apparently I was hugging her, too...

    • What did she say about that?

      I have four pillows. Two for my head (Yes I know it's bad) one for between my legs and one I keep on my chest and put my arms around.

        I had my arms around her, and she said I tried putting my legs around her, too, but the blankets were in the way. My friends were teasing me, lol- "ooh, do you have some unresolved feelings?" I was like "... yeah, I don't remember anything". I remember I was hugging the pillow, but I must've turned around and hugged her. She slipped out of bed and I must've turned back around to hug my pillow >_<". It's more comfortable when I'm hugging something
