Temps dropping, time for a cuddle buddy

I've never grasped the concept of a cuddle buddy. I figured it was the same as a fuck buddy, but you just held each other after the fact. Not a true cuddle buddy. You just cuddle because for whatever reason, 98 degrees of human heat in your bed makes you sleep better.

This was never clearer than on a cold night in Charlotte when I was too lazy to get up and turn up the heat or place another log in the fireplace. We all need a cuddle buddy.

And the good people at Lemondrop.com have outlined just what you need to do to find a good one.

More than a sex doll, less than a boyfriend, but loads more affectionate than the typical one-night stand, the Cuddle Buddy is the single girl's best defense in that cold, little war waged every winter against loneliness. Consider the Cuddle Buddy a UV phototherapy lamp for your soul.

Unfortunately, you can ruin a good cuddle buddy with sex. Especially if it's good sex. Sex means getting naked, which pretty much defeats the purpose of having someone in your bed to keep you warm.

Did you know that cuddle buddies are good for the environment? The next time someone is talking about going green and saving energy, tell them they could help you do that by finding you a cuddle buddy.

Do be careful, though. If you're the kind of person who confuses someone sharing their blanket with you as a sign of undying love and devotion, then skip the cuddle buddy and get an electric blanket -- Duke Energy will thank you.
