My group T will give me a hug. It took me five years to get brave enough to ask my individual T for a hug. I was so afraid of rejection. So I decided to ask him not to answer the question I was about to ask until we talked about it. I knew if I could talk about it thouroughly first that it wouldn't feel like personal rejection. He doesn't hug and I'm glad we talked about it first before he said that.
