“Staying vulnerable is a risk we have to take if we want to experience connection” ~ Brené Brown 💫
✨ EMOTIONAL CONNECTION, S*X & P**NOGRAPHY ✨
Strengthening your emotional bond with your partner(s) can create a happy and very satisfying relationship ☺️
🌸 Intimacy is MORE than just S*x! When people hear the word ‘intimacy’ their first thought is often S*X!
But the best way to define Intimacy is when a person is creating a connection with their partner(s) 💕 and there are many types of ways to connect and build trust in your relationship, which include:
1. Emotional intimacy
2. S*xual or physical intimacy
3. Crisis intimacy
4. Recreational intimacy
5. Communication intimacy
6. Aesthetic intimacy
7. Work intimacy
8. Commitment intimacy
9. Creative intimacy
10. Conflict intimacy
11. Spiritual intimacy
12. Intellectual intimacy
Emotional and s*xual intimacy are known to be the two most powerful types of intimacy. Being ‘emotionally’ intimate with someone means to be completely vulnerable and trusting them not to hurt you.
Your view of intimacy may be different to somebody else’s view of intimacy, and that’s okay! ☺️ our past experiences, relationships and behaviors can influence our views of the world, which then affects the way we experience intimacy with others.
Even two people in a relationship can view intimacy differently. For example, you might like spending time alone with your partner to connect, relax and talk. Whereas your partner prefers s*xual intimacy, and believes this is the only way to be closer to you.
Neither of you are wrong with how you view intimacy, this just means you both have different ‘intimacy needs’. When you work on meeting each others intimacy needs this creates a happier relationship, shows you’re committed and are listening to the wants and needs of your partner.
So, to create the most desirable relationship requires a lot of self work, including finding out what intimacy means to you, your intimacy needs and those of your partner(s), and finding ways to satisfy those needs together ❤️
