AIBU not to want to hug people?

I don't think it's unreasonable to not want to hug people and find it a little strange that so many people want to, lol.

My biggest problem is with the MIL who always wants to hug despite me explaining that it makes me feel uncomfortable and I really don't hug anyone! (excluding DH and DS). She insists on making a big deal out of it and has started making comments that DS will be unsociable if I don't show him that hugging is something we all do. That seems a ridiculous thing to suggest

Is it just me?

Hugging is only good for people who like to ffs. It’s awful for people
who don’t and it’s also passive aggressive twat behaviour to insist on hugging people who you know hate it
I’m older now so
I just step back and say no thanks.
Tell your mil to back off with her passive aggression
