EV, no, I would not initiate. But it sounds to me like maybe you want to? I'm kinda shy that way, plus I like my T too much to just hug him outright, if that makes sense. He has reached out to put his arm around my shoulder a couple of times and given me a kind of sideways squeeze as I walk out the door. Usually this is after a particularly rough session, and he usually accompanies it with "good job today" or something like that. This little gesture gives me extra support. I really appreciate it. Like pink's T, mine does this move in his chair where he gets really close to me and stares right at me, inches away. I like that too.
Sometimes recently, I pause near the door on my way out and he is standing next to his desk and we are kind of close, like closer than normal. I am invading his personal space a bit, if you know what I mean. I like to do that to compare the discrepancy in our heights. He is a lot taller than I am and I like to stand close to him with him towering above me (his tallness is not apparent like this when we are sitting down). I know the reason I like to do this and it is because my husband is not tall. He is only about 2-3 inches taller than I am and I like the contrast of T being really tall. I don't get that much and it's a nice feeling.
