close, trusting personal relationship

a very close and warm relationship where people trust each other and share their true feelings

استعمال کا انداز: intimacy between [people] / intimacy with [someone]

Learners sometimes use "intimacy" to mean any friendly relationship. In English, "intimacy" usually suggests a very close, emotionally open relationship, not just being friendly. Also, use "intimacy with someone" or "intimacy between people", not "intimacy to someone".
