"L'intimité, c'est être vu et connu tel que vous êtes vraiment."
— Amy Bloom
Simplified Meaning:
Intimacy means that someone really understands you deeply and accepts you for who you are without pretending. Imagine you have a friend who knows all your secrets, your dreams, and even what makes you sad or happy. They see both your good and bad sides but still care about you just the same. This level of closeness allows you to be your true self without any fear of judgment. For example, in a healthy marriage, partners share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. This kind of relationship can make you feel safe and loved for who you really are. To build intimacy in your own life, try being open and honest with the people you trust, showing them the real you.
