    I wonder if cuddling virtually in VR has an effect too, because it’s a super popular activity, and it still kinda feels good and you sometimes can trick yourself into feeling touch sensations when you see someone rub your virtual face or arm in the same place where your real arm is if that makes sense.

      I sometimes feel the same (but weaker) as cuddling by watching or listening to cuddle asmr. So yea, in VR, when it’s a real person that is actually interacting with you, it would probably feel nice too.
