Intimacy is about closeness but getting close to someone does not necessarily mean sexual intimacy. Intimacy takes place when you get close to a person and is manifested in the feeling of togetherness, mutual affection and companionship. There is intimacy between family members or friends, it’s not only for lovers or couples. These 5 things will help you increase intimacy in your relationships:

If you’re being totally honest with yourself, you must admit that you’re an addict - we all are. You don’t smoke or drink alcohol? Oh, well, you must be addicted to something else: your family, your partner, your kids, love or religion - the list goes on. The truth is no of us are free from addictions. So let’s see what your weakness is

We don’t often come across real love in life but when we do find a person we truly love, we immediately want to give it our all.

A denim company used the slogan „I believe in love at first touch” in the early 2000s for one of their ads and there is more truth to that sentence than one might first think. Attraction, desire, all consuming love and passion, workdays spent together in bed, steamy messages, then losing yourself in crying for hours on end, unbearable pain – what is common in all of these?

Are you scared, timid, careful, fearful or distrustful when it comes to love? Or are you the crazy, greedy or possessive type? Can you love freely, fiercely? Can you hope for the best?

Maybe I’m not the person I used to be, I’m not the girl I used to be before you. I might drink my coffee differently in the morning and I might be less clumsy and I might see people who see me weird differently.

A couple of months ago, I didn’t think I would ever love again. My partner of eight years left me. We were planning our wedding and he just left me. But then, the impossible happened: I fell in love again. I fell in love with you. I listened to my heart. Was I too hasty? I love you, I want to love you but you wouldn’t let me and that hurts. What hurts the most is that you’re not wiling to give me a chance. And everybody should be given a chance.

All women fall in love: some of us fall in love once, others might fall in love more than once but we all tend to be blind when t comes to love. Being on cloud 9 feels oh-so-great and we love to love but men tend to take advantage of that.
