Ooooh I love this question!!! Honestly, for me? It's not that deep. It's not about some need to compensate for past traumas or anything big like that, though ofc if someone DOES use it for that reason it's perfectly healthy! For me, it's just... I want to give people a motherly energy because that's an energy that I feel confident in giving. I want to make people feel good, feel loved, feel safe but controlled in a place that's all their own. I want to latch on to what makes it good about them and feed that, because I like to see people smile an unburdened smile, and this is absolutely a way that I can do it. It feeds me, too, so much. Seeing and hearing my little's reactions and feeling them sink into comfort is a real closeness. That's really all there is to it by itself.
