The problem becomes more complicated because everybody wants intimacy.
And the fear is that with somebody who is a stranger – and it does not matter, you may have lived with the person for thirty years, forty years the strangeness never disappears – it feels safer to keep a little defense, a little distance because somebody can take advantage of your weaknesses, of your frailties, of your vulnerability. And the fear is that if you drop …all your defenses, all your masks, who knows what the stranger is going to do with you? We are all hiding a thousand and one things – not only from others but from ourselves – because we have been brought up by sick humanity with all kinds of repressions, inhibitions, taboos. You have to drop all your defenses only then, intimacy is possible.
