Meaning of being patted on the head -
06-28-2010, 01:26 PM
Dear all,
I've recently been patted on the head not once, but TWICE by my Japanese superior during a work dinner party (nomikai) . In my culture, head-patting is something not done to a non-personal friend, so I wonder what does it mean in Japanese culture? I'm a little worried that I might misunderstand something here. |

My Japanese teacher also patted on my head several times, all of them when I did something good.
And where I live you don't do this to people, but I actually like it and never felt something was wrong. |
