What is Fluffle?
1.
Think of something that is
a) Affectionate
and b) Non-sexual.
Whatever you think of, is what a fluffle is - it's different for every person.
One of the more common interpretations is hugging someone and ruffling their hair.
* Cameron fluffles Kate - Hi there!
* Cameron gives Kate a good fluffling.

The usual physical analogy is a ruffling of someone's hair, though in the medium of text-based electronic communication, the term does not require physical form and remains equally valid as an abstraction.
Indeed, at the very highest level of abstraction, a fluffle not only need not have a physical analogue, but need not be directed at a specific individual. Used in this way (3), fluffling becomes a general outward radiation of affection.
