Side Hug
I am a guy.
A guy identifying as heterosexual gave me a side-hug at work last week.
As in, we were talking and he put his arm around me from the side, about the waist.
He's not really straight, is he?

Ooooooooooo.........
This kind of thing always happens to me. 
My coworkers told me that although he is rather expressive, and tends to do the high fives and the shoulder touches while talking, he's never given anyone but me the side hug.
I feel special.

Is this a friend or more of a random guy type thing? My close guy friends I do this too all the time.
Random guy...he could like you or he is almost too friendly.

^^^ Kinky frat!
We work in an office of 8 people. Four of us are openly gay, two are women, one is a priest, and then there's the side hugger. Several of our clients identify as gay.
We are close as a small org, but we don't hang out after hours.
Friends? Nah. Friendly, yes.

Maybe he's trying to fit in better but fumbled the execution.

LOL. I guess you could say that. We are just that silly. I've walked around arm in arm with my (male)cousin in public. We randomly slap each other on the bum for no good reason. We have a young'n that we look at as basically our little brother and when we began to "initiate" him he put up the expected stuggle and we basically told him "Don't fight it".

Side hugs around the shoulder--yes. Side hug around the waist--questionable . I'm not labeling anybody but I've never seen it happen among straight friends. You decide.

On a related note, the president of my university gave me a side-hug one time. It was very quick. "Affectionate" in a platonic sense but not erotic -- ya know?
