Briefly define the need for intimacy. How does need for intimacy differ from need for affiliation?
What will be an ideal response?
NEED FOR INTIMACY: The desire to experience warm, close, and communicative exchange with another person; in the extreme, to merge the self with another person. Need for intimacy goes beyond need for affiliation in its emphasis on closeness and open sharing with another person. In addition, need for affiliation is an active, striving, "doing" orientation toward relationships; need for intimacy is a more passive, uncontrolling, "being" orientation. Need for affiliation does not focus as much on positive, affirmative aspects of close relationships.
