The truth is that the idea of space is not always physical, that is, in your house, for example, you can measure the square meters that the living room or your room has. However, there is another form of distance that is not seen but that is felt and is one that refers people. Have you never felt light years away from someone you had by your side? Surely, this is because sometimes, people do not connect due to a lack of concerns, interests, life models and character. On the other hand, you may also, and on the contrary, have felt close to someone who lived in another city. In this sense, some experts explain that technologies have the ability to bring us closer to those who are far away but distance us from those who live close to us. Here's how respect the space of others.
On the other hand, the distance is also felt on a physical level depending on the person in front of you. Surely, you will see that you do not like that certain people exceed certain barrier when approaching you while with others you like it and you feel very comfortable. Trust is one of the reasons for this greater or lesser degree of intimacy.
In addition, it is convenient to learn to respect the space of others in order to know how far we can go also depending on the mood of the other person. If someone needs to be alone for a season, you will not achieve anything by overwhelming them and calling them a thousand times to ask what is wrong. People have stages, stages and moments, and our soul, sometimes, as if it were a house, is more or less receptive to visits.
Sometimes, beyond the emotional distance that can separate you from a person, it is true that you can get closer if you find a lot of wisdom and patience the right way for it. But especially, you can do it if the other person shows receptivity to you.
