Often, we avoid intimacy out of fear and miss something that could be amazing for our happiness and well-being. The reality is that at a human level, all relationships end, whether through changes in life situations or because one of the parties made his/her transition to the “other side” of life.
One of the things we can explore before we enter into a close friendship or sexual relationship with someone is what our expectations are of each other. Most of the challenges couples and friends have are because they never asked each other what their expectations were.
