Don't initiate the hugging everytime. I am a hugger & found that WAH was not open to our usual hugs & had to back off. This was a 180 for me & will be for you if you use to do this every morning.
Sometimes our S must miss what use to be the norm, in order to want it back.
An opportunity will come up, maybe a celebration hug, or a group hug with your pet. Just don't push too hard, been there, done it & had to back peddle.
Sending positve thoughts your way.
