Is it wrong for me to *sometimes* give a hug or hold hands on my own initiative, if not done in excess (like 2 times a day)?
Yes, it is wrong, if you want to say it like that. You saw how pulling back from her has drawn her into your space, so don't push it.
There is a test that Puppy explained once....and I agree that it would be a telling factor for most. If she starts kissing you.....go in for a long, wet, sexy kiss and she how she reacts to that. If she is actually going through withdrawals then I think it's too soon to do it right now, but you'll know when you need to.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
