“Intimacy is not something you have; it's something you do.”
— Esther Perel
Simplified Meaning:
Intimacy is about actions, not just feelings. Think about a close friendship. It gets stronger when you spend time together, share secrets, and support each other. Just saying "we’re friends" isn’t enough. You have to show it through your actions. If a couple wants to feel close, they need to talk, listen, and show care. Doing things together and being there for each other builds intimacy. So, to have a deep connection, you need to actively work on it with the other person.
