The first time I got a hug from my T, I stole it! I had just finished talking with him about a horrible plane crash in my small hometown, some of the victims of which I had known, and since both I and my husband are commercial pilots, it shook us both up pretty badly. Afterward, he extended his hand to shake mine (the most physically intimate gesture he had ever offered). I grabbed it, and without even thinking, pulled him toward me and gave him a hug. I bet that was a surprise. So much for the rules! He didn't chide me, however. I guess it was obvious that I wasn't trying to do anything inappropriate, and at times like that when you're especially thinking about loss, you want the people you love to know how you feel about them.
