My pdoc does that it's OK because I think he does it to understand what I'm thinking. At least I know that he cares what I'm thinking and is paying attention but sometimes it has caused problems. One time I was having trouble leaving back into the big bad world so i paused and looked down. The next thing I know he's a quarter inch away paused and looking down. It was way too intimate for me I just wanted to touch his hair to comfort him...he's at least a foot shorter than me so my gut reaction was that of comforting a child in pain. Anyway I had to reach aside and open the door to break it up because my reaction was so bizarre....can you imagine if I had reached out to pet him like a dog?
