True intimacy is a human constant. People of all types find it equally hard to achieve, equally precious to hold. Age, education, social status, make little difference here; even genius does not presuppose the talent to reveal one’s self completely and completely absorb one’s self in another personality. Intimacy is to love what concentration is to work: a simultaneous drawing together to attention and release of energy.

Emotional intimacy is an absolute must in order to have mind blowing physical intimacy and should be a constant even when physical is not involved ?

This glurg sounds familiar.

As usual, the desire or ability to give or receive intimacy is different for everyone. Just because most people like intimacy doesn't make it an absolute.

Anyone read Dr Brene Brown's work on shame?

I just finished her book on men and women and shame. One thing she heard repeatedly is men saying the women in their lives would rather see them fail than be vulnerable.

Physical intimacy isn’t and can never be an effective substitute for emotional intimacy.

It is an absolute human certainty that no one can know his own beauty or perceive a sense of his own worth until it has been reflected back to him in the mirror of another loving, caring human being.

A very sweet sentiment.

absolute human certainty

Not to me it isn't...

I am not sure anything is an absolute human certainty. Look at Bunker Bitch, he believes he is the smartest, best looking, and the most worthy individual in the world. He is also a psychopath.

@Joebenson017 There is only one absolute human certainty and that is death. The rest is contextual.
