intimacy are missing from relationships, this
where problems begin and things start to
deteriorate.

It is important to remember you cannot have
physical intimacy without emotional intimacy and
emotional intimacy without some form of physical
intimacy.

When things start to break down in relationships
it is often due to one person placing a greater
significance on one form of intimacy over the
other.

one or both people decide to simply end the
relationship without any clear understanding why
it failed.

If you find you are having difficulties either
being emotionally or physically intimate with
your partner, you need to determine the
underlying causes for this situation.

It is often beneficial to consult with an
experienced Toronto marriage and couples
counselor, like me, Ellen Starr. Your

Intimacy is the foundation of strong and lasting
relationships. It lets both people know they are
loved, cared for, and appreciated.

Whatever challenges life tosses at you and your
partner, you know you will survive thanks to the
security intimacy brings between both of you.

Most relationships start to form intimacy during
the early stages. If at this point, you lack
intimate feelings towards the other person, this
is a good time to end things before committing to
a long-term relationship or agreeing to get
married.

If you are not satisfied now, things will only
become more complicated and dissatisfying the
longer you stay in the relationship.

People tend to dislike hurting others, especially
their partners, but sometimes when there is an
imbalance in intimacy and no feasible way for one
or both people to rectify the situation,

it can be beneficial and healthier in the long
run, both mentally and physically to come to a
mutual agreement to end the relationship.

However, before things get to this point, one
important concept couples tend to forget is
intimacy is ever-changing and evolving.

Intimacy needs to be constantly nurtured and
built upon in order for a relationship to
succeed.

It is not uncommon for couples to also start to
change their focus from one type of intimacy to
the other the longer they are together.

In addition, each person often has their own
specific requirements for the types of intimacy
they desire, whether it is physical or emotional.

effectively communicate their intimacy needs and
work together to ensure each partner is being
properly fulfilled.
