cuddler

One who nestles

A cuddler is someone who cuddles—who enjoys physical closeness and affectionate embracing.

The word often describes a person's tendencies in intimate relationships: He's not much of a cuddler.

Professional cuddlers offer platonic touch services for those seeking human contact without sexual activity.
