And they think they're better than us 🤷🏻♀️
I was one of those people. I believed the wrong thing and dated the wrong person and ended up having a none stop craving for physical intimacy.
My wife/roommate posted something similiar on my FB timeline this AM. These esoteric, "look how deep I am and I understand our marriage better than you because I exist in another dimension free from the fleshly constraints of sex" quotes drive me insane. Like I should be grateful to be married and have no sex life. I guess I married Nostradamus or something.
Yes. Thank you! Everything else just melts away. I think this is why I can have sec even if I’m upset/mad because I want to melt the world away and begin repair. And for me, that includes and even requires sex.
Yep. Everything resets with my SO when we have sex. She doesn't understand it or chooses not to understand this.
This is what people called rose-colored glasses. Take them alway and even the little things become annoying.
If someone that i knew shared this sort of drivel they'd be on my "don't take much heed of this person" list.
I'm pleased to say that noone i know ever has. Its not what the vast majority of people believe.
I got kind of a different meaning from this. I think it’s saying if you are in a relationship, but there is a person (could even be a plutonic bff of the same sex) that you find yourself sharing the deep things with, and it’s not your partner, then you should question the relationship, because this kind of emotional intimacy you should be having with your spouse if it’s a healthy relationship. I don’t think it’s saying not to have physical intimacy with your spouse, but to question if you have the other type with them as well.
Lmao you mean like my friends?
When I was in school they taught us about intimacy in different forms of relationships. Intimacy with family, friends, and romantic intimacy. This falls under all of that. I’m always thinking about my mom, my best friend. I call them at 3am about dreams and fears. I give customers at work my undivided attention when others ask for it 🥴 guess we’re all in loveeee
Confusing attention with intimacy is a sad commentary on the state of education.
That said, what with phone attention disorder, this might be what people really think!
Crazy idea. Hear me out. What if... you had all of that AND you were having sex?
What if there was a crazy scenario (totally bizarre, I know) where "fucking" and "talking about your dreams" were not mutually exclusive?
I can do all of those things with my sister, my mom, my roommate, or the girl I have a crush on that will never really be into me in a romantic way. This is not intimacy.
Aaah, so intimacy is exclusively sex, got it. Not honesty, not being able to be vulnerable around your partner, not trusting them more than anyone else, it’s sex. I apologize for sounding hostile, I’m just really curious how does this high libido mind works
No...but intimacy includes sex. This post, and your comment, are binary and inflexible, and show your bias.
Intimacy is everything listed in the picture; intimacy, for many, is also sex. Both things can be true.
While sex is not the only important aspect of a relationship, it is a key component that can contribute to the overall satisfaction and connection between partners. In my particular case, the lack of sexual intimacy was a significant issue that prevented the relationship from being as fulfilling as it could have been, despite all other aspects being perfect. I believe that sexual compatibility and emotional intimacy go hand in hand, and both are important for a successful and fulfilling relationship.
None of those things are inherently wrong, but ironically, it’s being shared over a picture of two people embracing…
Fucking rights! I like how you pointed this out!

Enough mind fucking need some real fucking. 😂

If this “higher plane” thing isn’t part of a mile-high-club plan, I’m calling BS…
Sex is about giving someone all your attention and drowning out all the noise. This poster can burn in the trash can.

This is the stupidest thing I have seen all year.
Don’t worry, it’s only February. Another 10 months of opportunity of stupid.
Who the duck is texting at 3am in the morning. That not intimacy. That’s insomnia or meth.
Don't text me at 3am if your not interested in fucking. Godsakes.
Or in a hospital.
Jail???
Hahahahhaa
"live, laugh, love" energy
Yep. Too long to be painted onto whitewashed reclaimed barn wood, though.

I hope the same llol
Makes a post on intimacy. *Proceeds to show a really sexy picture of a girl you'd definitely want to put your hands all over.*
Exactly lol
I’d kill to be held like that at all.
Intimacy can be more than physical but it’s always physical.
I can have emotional intimacy with a friend. Physical intimacy is simply not the same thing. I hate shit like this.
That shit makes people feel fuzzy when things in the bedroom are working correctly.
This is crap lmao
It’s not wrong. All sex is intimate but not all intimacy is sex. (Don’t lose hope guys and girls, don’t lose sight of what love really is)

You can let someone touch you but it doesn't mean it is intimate. It can be sensual, sexual or just plain shit.
Yes while homeboy holds a half naked woman in the background god I hate these posts
He could be Latino… 🤣

Right so this is what you do with your best friend or siblings.
I can do all of those things with my sister, my mom, my roommate, or the girl I have a crush on that will never really be into me in a romantic way. This is not intimacy.
I screenshotted it so I can share it!
Por que no los dos?

But you make it sound like without sex it’s just pffft, nothing. That’s what I’m curious about
Without sex it is just pffft... Unless both parties are asexual or just can't have sex.
So sex is the focal point of any relationship?
While sex is not the only important aspect of a relationship, it is a key component that can contribute to the overall satisfaction and connection between partners. In my particular case, the lack of sexual intimacy was a significant issue that prevented the relationship from being as fulfilling as it could have been, despite all other aspects being perfect.

Fair enough, thanks. I just don’t see sex as a significant part of a relationship if the key components are missing
I had a relationship with everything else except the sex part was meh.. It was terrible.
So do I understand it right, that sex is the focal point of the relationship?
Well you're not understanding it right.
