"L'intimité est la capacité d'être plutôt bizarre avec quelqu'un et découvrir que cela leur convient."
— Alain de Botton

Simplified Meaning:
When two people feel close to each other, they can show their true, unique selves without fear. Imagine you have a best friend who you can act silly with without feeling embarrassed. You might have inside jokes or quirky habits that others may not understand, but your friend enjoys them or accepts them. This comfort level shows that you trust each other deeply. For example, if you like to dance in a funny way when you’re happy, and your partner laughs and joins in instead of judging you, it shows a strong bond. This type of connection can make relationships and friendships stronger, as both people feel safe being themselves.
