Think thats bad I was so drunk I don't even remember having sex.
Intimacy is being close with someone. There is physical intimacy which can be holding hands, kissing, sex, or anything that brings two or more people together in a very personal way. Sports is not physical intimacy.
There is emotional intimacy. That is where you feel close to someone but it doesn't necessarily have to be touching that person. You can chat online, talk on the phone, write actual pen and paper letters to someone, text, or talk over drinks to have emotional intimacy.
Spiritual intimacy also exists and shouldn't be confused with religion. For me just being next to a person without taking or touching is an example of this. Some people describe it as "being on the same wavelength" or a "feeling that you've been friends forever even if you just met".
Love can be any mixture of these three forms of intimacy. You love a friend when you have emotional and possibly spiritual intimacy without the physical. Romantic love includes all three. Some people actually enjoy physical intimacy without needing or wanting emotional or spiritual. The mix and the degrees of each form vary from relationship to relationship.
I hope this helps.

I love football I am intimate with football.
I totally agree with you. Always surprises me when people approach this subject in such a one dimensional way...
@PinkyandtheBrain intimacy is usually a two way street. Does football reciprocate your love?
