in this day and age human connections are becoming a thing of the past for young people, and it's being replaced by fake meaningless "friendships" with hundreds of people online which fail to fill that human need for emotional intimacy. sex is the easiest way of getting attention to accumulate those fake online friends in a vain effort to fill that void, and it's also the easiest way to get attention from the opposite sex... and some people mistake sexual relationship for intimacy. Emotional intimacy is not a human need...a human need is food, water, and shelter. Humans can survive just fine without intimacy. I second that.   Okay, for arguments sake. Explain to me how in one way or the other intimacy provides a survival element to humanity? Beit emotional or physical, how does it provide for mankind? What does it provide? Instant gratification, supplemental at best. most human beings don't just seek to "survive" i.e. stay alive. human beings feel urges to self actualize to their fullest potential. in maslow's hierarchy of needs as pictured above, you have the pyramid of needs that human beings must fulfill in order to reach that self-actualization phase. yes, water food shelter etc is needed to survive, but after those needs are filled then normal human beings feel the urge to move up that pyramid fulfilling the needs necessary along the way. |

Emotional intimacy is not a human need...a human need is food, water, and shelter. Humans can survive just fine without intimacy. it's on the list. it's just way up there  Humans cannot survive without food, water, and shelter...they can survive without other people. according to psychological perspectives, you are incorrect. You can love objects just as much as people...if not more. I think most people just misconstrue the point of love, to feel deeply about something...anything. Beit a book, a song, a writer, or even a television show. Humans place value on humans, not basic needs. I love my serial killer books/shows, I love writing, I love music. I do not need my love answered with love, I just need to know that my love exists for something. Again, we don't need love from someone. We don't even need to love anyone, we just need to love whatever it is we enjoy doing. |

that's why intimacy is that high up on the heirarchy of need. It's not a survival need. as soon as you establish your survival needs you move up on the ladder to the next needs

But they are not necessary needs, they are supplemental needs. There only for someone who has the urge to fulfill them. My point is that intimacy is not necessary for survival, which it is not. |
