Being accepted for who you are warts an all without judgement

Well said! Judging one another shuts out the possibility of intimacy. I've been practicing setting judgement aside with those close to me and it's led to better interactions and understanding. Everyone is the flawed hero of their own story and when you accept the flaws you can see the whole person .

You see me. I see you.

Neither of us looks away.

Comfortably baring my soul.

Lying with her head on my shoulder while she snores so softly and not wanting to make her stop because it would wake her.

Intimacy means "into me see" -- a heart and soul connection where two people see, accept, and appreciate each other for all that they are.

You show me yours and I'll show you mine.

Intimacy is letting someone inside my outer wall. Letting them glimpse the inner wall.

Conversation that is completely open, honest, and about feelings, thoughts, fears, and love.

A strong emotional connection. I'm intimate with some male and female friends where there's never been physical attraction.

Unfortunately for me to maintain physical attraction or even emotional connection, I need intellectual stimulation and that's been the downfall of a few romantic relationships. It sucks to be nerdy, especially if you're also a bit rednecky.

Comfort with silence together, as well as conversation

Raising the Jolly Roger and making guardian angels run away screaming.

Eyes gazing into eyes.
Mutual touch.
Open minds meeting.
Total trust.

Intimacy means to be close. I know that there is so much more to it than that, but that is it's true definition.

Each of us being able to just be together and be comfortable.
