Intimacy deepens connection from "summary" of Getting Together and Staying Together by William Glasser,M.D.,Carleen Glasser
Intimacy is a powerful force that can deepen the connection between two people. When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and open with someone else, we are inviting them into our innermost thoughts and feelings. This sharing of ourselves creates a bond that can be incredibly strong and lasting. By opening up to our partner, we are showing them that we trust them with our deepest selves. This trust is essential for building a strong and healthy relationship. When we feel secure enough to share our fears, hopes, and dreams with someone else, we are allowing ourselves to be truly known by them. Intimacy is not just about physical closeness, although that can certainly play a role in deepening a connection. It is also about emotional closeness and the ability to truly understand and empathize with our partner. When we take the time to listen and really hear what our partner is saying, we are showing them that we care about their thoughts and feelings. In a relationship, intimacy can be the glue that holds everything together. When we feel close to our partner, we are more likely to work through challenges together and support each other through difficult times. This sense of connection can help us weather the storms that inevitably come in any relationship.- Intimacy is about building a sense of closeness and connection that goes beyond surface-level interactions. It is about truly getting to know your partner and allowing them to know you in return. When we are willing to be open and vulnerable with each other, we are creating a strong foundation for a lasting and fulfilling relationship.
