There are 4 types of intimacy in a relationship that help create a happy and whole feeling rather than a something is missing feeling

Emotional intimacy – is feeling safe to share emotions and needs. It’s safe to be all versions of you without fear. A sense of deep trust and belonging. 

Mental intimacy – No topics are off limits, you’re safe to express views and opinions, challenging each other to broaden thinking, learning new things together and BEING ABLE to see the world through each other’s eyes 

Physical intimacy – is taking time with other, feeling safe to express needs and desires, spending time together to increase connection and meeting each other’s needs.

And spiritual intimacy – which is sharing similar values, encouraging each other to grow and do better, supporting each other to build yourselves as individuals and build together.

Intimacy is not just about a physical connection; it’s made up of all 4 of these levels.
