IMO, they both acted and reacted the right way, not by asking for a hug or declining, but by being mutually respectful. She asked, and he said no thank you. She appeared disappointed, but nonetheless respected his boundaries. Though the interaction was awkward, I see two civil adults respecting each others’ choices, and I see nothing wrong with that. Different people have different boundaries. You and I, like Seinfeld, would decline a hug from a stranger. But not everyone would. No one is more right than anyone else, they’re just right for themselves.
