Many social media users commented on her post and placed different opinions, “Agree, with the exception of a significant another capacity. However, some people have a physical love type – such that they express love via touch. So although it may bother you, look at it from their perspective. Try acknowledging their love and shutting down pessimism,” a user wrote.  

Another user expressed, “Typical desi auntie greeting tho, with no real meaning behind it. Totally against that lol”. Another wrote, “Relatable.”
