I believe feel that my intimacy status is “intimate” as I have close friends and I am in a committed relationship that I freely express a range of feelings in, from anger to affection. The central question posed in this stage of life is “How can I love?” I believe I have answered this question by starting new relationships with people and examining old ones.

c. Fear of intimacy helps establish and maintain intimacy by preventing us from getting hurt. Some people form many friendships while others form one close intimate relationship. This fear of intimacy can come in many different forms such as failure, vulnerable, rejection, sex, responsibility, abandonment, and much more. These all are caused by fear.
