Yes we are... We hug, kiss, and comfort each other, but we'll also curse each other out too! Lol!
Very on both. My brother's form of a greeting handshake to most people is the half-bro-man-hug.
No
Yes, my father was warm and loving with me, especially when I was little. My mother not so much, but she tried her best.

My FAMILY was. Not necessarily my mom or dad but the rest of my family was.
yes... a lot both of them :)
No and that tends to affect my relationship now.
Not much and guess that is why I am trying to show my son to be that way. I kiss him good night and hug him when He has been at school all day or he been with his dad over the weekend. I want him to be affectionate and not be afraid to show his feelings.
On my moms side yes
We hug when we say hi and by I guess

No, no at all. Definitely has its affects on me today.
Not at all. Emotionally crazy and physically abusive.
Where not but we always make a point to find a way to be together
Yes we are physically and emotionally affectionate with each other, giving lots of hugs and kisses and constantly saying I love you! Oh there's lots of other types of physical affection shown too!!!😍
Somewhat it kind of depended on the moment
Hell no! I had to grow into it. I love being affectionate to my girl now. She has the most kissable lips.
My mom was. She never held back any emotions. I believe it's important to hug and kiss and say I love you.

Half was, half was not. My younger sister was a doll. She always cheered me up and loved me unconditionally. My mom was similar, we told each other (and still do) every day that we loved each other. She snuggled with me every morning when I was young. Can't say the same for the men in my family.
