Scarves and hugs aside, I think that the real good that can come from this situation is a better understanding of yourself and your attachments. I know that you say that your pdoc is your T, and so I have my fingers crossed that this means that you see her for at least 50 minutes each week. (If not, pretty please see if you can do this). This hugs/scarf issue is something that you need to dissect and process in a therapy setting. I know that you have some intense positive feelings for Bob--that is absolutely OKAY. However, I am confident that these feelings are complex and relate to your life as a whole. Understanding that can lead to better IRL relationships and improved mental health.
You still have time before you meet Bob--you don't need to decide this right now. Keep knitting and you can decide abt what to do with the scarf later.
Best,
EE
