Actually something that happened pre-therapy... I was in a very bad place and a complete stranger offered me a hug saying I looked like I needed one. I never realized how terribly touch-hungry I was before that.
I don't hug my T - we shake hands before and after each session and sometimes he will pat me on the back on the way out after a harder session.
Had a male co-worker side hug me a couple days ago. A first for me. I've never hugged guys who're not family. It was nice.
Hugging T would be overwhelming for me I think. It would scare me, even though a part of me would love it. I feel like if I were a child it would be okay, but not as an adult...
