The same eight people sit in a certain church pew every week, but not always in the same order. Every week, each person hugs the people immediately to his or her left and right. How many weeks does it take (at a minimum) for every pair of people to hug at least once?

THIS IS NOT A DEFINATIVE ANSWER.

 

 

It would have to be at least 4 weeks

 

If A hugs B and C   the first week

A hugs D and E the seconds week

A hugs Fand G the third week

A hugs H and one othe on the 4th week

 

I don't know for sure if itthe minimun is MORE  more than 4 weeks.

I just know that it will be 4 weeks or maybe more.
