So I lack intimacy towards myself? I was wondering how is that possible...I have to post this:


Quote:
Intimacy one feels in a relationship can be described as openness toward another person and closeness to him/her.
Intimacy carries the comfort of sharing feelings, mutual respect and honesty, and a willingness to be vulnerable.
The need for intimacy involves the needs for belonging and for the very basic human contact. Unlike commitment, which evolves gradually, intimacy can be sensed by one immediately upon meeting another person. However it continues to grow throughout the relationship.
Ok I like the last sentence in this quote...and it's quite obvious why: I'm not hopeless.
And to analyse this: I don't feel very close to myself, I don't respect myself and I'm not honest with myself? That can't be completely true, becaus even though sometimes I don't like myself and I don't respect myself at all times, I am honest with myself in the majority of cases (it's very rare that I'm not).

Willingness to be vulnerable...that might be true. I am not very willing to be vulnerable towards myself, at least not naturally. I could on the other hand be more vulnerable with other people.

Wow looking at the purple parts of the table is even more funny
Sexually I'm not doing bad, I'm a good associate, teammate, partner and boss to myself.
I was just hoping we could be friends and love each other too!


PS: I know this is kind of silly.
