[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d love a hug when I get home from work.  It’d just be nice to start to the evening.  Currently, just the dogs come to say hello and [b]if I try to hug her I’ll get an elbow.[/b]

The other thing is that if our son or I try to talk to her - please listen to what we’re saying instead of just cutting us off and mowing over us with a loud/aggressive/unpleasant opinion.  It creates resentment from both of us.

I’m sure I’ve got some things to work on too.

Is it because she's moving around doing house or child care? [/quote]

Yes, or work email/text, etc.  I am too.  Last night I got home and immediately started cleaning the kitchen, cooking dinner and helping our teen with math homework.  I get it - there’s lots to be done, but the 10 seconds it takes to hug someone won’t take the household schedule off track.[/quote]

Approaching me to GIVE you something--a hug--while I am busy doing something that benefits you/the household/your children shows that you don't notice or care what I'm doing. How about:

"Thank you for making dinner. Can I help with anything? When you're not busy, I'd love a hug."[/quote]

Seriously you want a husband to negotiate a time for a hug.  I'm a wife and my DH is a hugger.  I couldn't imagine continuing to clean the kitchen while he has offered a hug.  That's crazy.
