(((hugs))) I also "enjoy" this when my T does it. I think he does this to gain my full attention when either what he has to say is very, very important, and/or when I'm having trouble focussing..or when I feel so very far from everything good.

I have asked him, Can you come closer? He always wants to know why, but he always does move closer. (Some days it's just that I'm having more trouble hearing

To feel the caring energy from someone like this really is a good feeling, imo!

I don't know that I could say "I like it when you move closer." I would tell him that it helps me focus, and helps me to know he really cares how I'm doing.
