Hi Mouse,
Been pondering this thread, and wonder: do you feel like you are missing something without the hug?
I'm not so sure I really want a hug from T. I like the space between us. It's small, defined and makes me feel secure. What I want is intimacy--never had it. I want him to be with me NO MATTER WHAT, EVEN IF HE THINKS I AM CRAZY. The hug, I could do without--although it would be nice.
