Jenny Block says intimacy exists in many forms (even on one night stands.)
I’ve been thinking about intimacy, those moments of understanding between two people where no words are, or need to be, spoken. I’ve been thinking about inside jokes between friends, new and old. I’ve been thinking about still being in my pajamas at noon, sitting toe to toe with another person, forgetting to eat, dissecting the lives we lead and that we want to lead. I’ve been thinking about intimacy that comes through sex and intimacy that develops outside of it. I’ve been thinking about roommates and lovers and family, relatives and strangers and even enemies.

I know what intimacy is. I’ve enjoyed it in any number of permutations.
