What is it to feel intimate with someone ?
Can we reduce intimacy just about sex ? just a lover's thing ?Intimacy can't be shared without sexual desire ?
Today, I was questioning what is to share intimacy for me.
Of course, as a man, as a human being, to give and to receive things about the skin, the body, the smell are things about intimacy; but over all those things, just to feel in a glance, in a said word, in a smile shared that you exist for the other as a precious, unique person is also a form of deep intimacy. For me, intimacy is when 2 persons are able just from those simple things to make feel to each other that at this right moment when this glance is shared, it is unique, precious and could not be just exactly the same with an other person.
To share intimacy could be just a kind of deep mutual understanding, a deep link...much more complex than just to be in a bed with someone else...
Intimacy generally refers to the feeling of being in a close personal association and belonging together. It is a familiar and very close affective connection with another as a result of entering deeply or closely into relationship through knowledge and experience of the other. Genuine intimacy in human relationships requires dialogue, transparency, vulnerability and reciprocity. (© Wikipedia)
