As far as your friend, human contact can be very nice. There is no harm in a hug. But I can totally relate when you say it was not the same as your h's hugs...even now, with the strain between us, I still would take my H's quick little hugs over anything.
Keep in mind, that your H is an alien right now. It is hard, I think, because we feel so mucnh, and our S's feel so little. I think Jeff is right when he says detaching and limiting the phone calling is a bit of self preservation, something we all need.
