Intimacy Theory

Intimacy Theory is an exploration in social psychology of how we seek connections with others.

This is an explanation of my theory on how we create masks which we wear in different situations. Our masks cover us, protect our identities and our idea of self, and filter intimacies both from outside sources and what we present and give to others. These also serve as a filter for what we seek in the aspects of Body, Mind, and Spirit.

After reading Intimacy Theory you may have a better understanding of how and why you want or expect certain things from the people and situations in your life. You hopefully will have a different way to consider if your feelings, desires, and expectations are being met. And if not, Intimacy Theory will hopefully help you consider why you may feel that way, which aspects are unmet, and how to adjust things.
