Your intimate relationship with yourself is extremely important and should be nurtured prior to nurturing other relationships

Keywords: philosophy , friendships , intimacy , love , relationships

Intimacy offers a way for humans to connect authentically, and our authentic selves should not be limited to experiencing intimacy with a sole romantic partner. Expecting one relationship to fulfill every type of intimacy we crave is the emotional manifestation of putting all of our intimacy eggs in one basket. Developing intimacy in every relationship we have, beginning with ourselves, can fulfill our needs and desires in a way that doesn’t place responsibility for intimacy solely on our romantic partners.

In fake friendships, there is an expectation of phoniness that one must exhibit in order to keep the friendship going and the minute things become too real for the insincere soul, the friendship diminishes

In healthy and real friendships, authenticity is embraced. If you are a frank person, more than likely, your real friends will love you for your honesty. A fake friend will hate you for it and avoid you. Your real friends will be around whether you are on Cloud Nine, or Rock Bottom. The fake ones hate when you are high and love when you are low.
