'''Intimacy''' is linked with [[Emotion|feelings]] of closeness among partners in a [[Interpersonal relationship|relationship]]. It is usually characterized by [[love]] and attachment. These feelings may or may not be connected or [[Confusion|confused]] with [[Human sexuality|sexual]] feelings. In other relationships, intimacy has more to do with shared moments than sexual interactions.

This is not an exact definition, but it seems that intimacy and [[healthy]] relationships go hand in hand. Indeed, intimacy is basic in any meaningful relationship: the basis of [[friendship]] and one of the foundations of [[love]].

The main forms of intimacy are [[Emotion|emotional intimacy]] and physical intimacy.  Intellectual intimacy, familiarity with a person's [[culture]] and interests, is common among friends.  Members of [[religious]] or philosophic groups may also perceive a "[[Spirituality|spiritual]] intimacy" in common.
