Cuddling Friends
This refers to a partner of the opposite sex with whom you cuddle in bed but do not take things any further. Recently among young people there’s a tendency to consider romance as being troublesome. It seems they are seeking a relationship that alleviates their loneliness, while not being restricted by a partner.
