The Unspoken Dialogue

Verbal language is a big part of human's society when it comes to communication. However, it is not the only way. Nonverbal interactions sometimes are more accurate and robust than the verbal one.

​

Physical touch has emotional and social connotations that often far outweigh anything that can express through language. It can convey our feelings and intentions more efficient and direct that speech cannot do. Moreover, it can reveal the real thought which masked by the fair pretences of a person’s words. However, in the human’s world, language-based communication plays an important role, and nonverbal behaviours are often downplayed. 

Through the actions of hold, hug, caress, kisses and even gazes, people built and deepen the intimate relationships with others. By these gentle and warm touches, they are also seeking for comforts, supports, and compliments. Generally speaking, the distance between people and intimacy are in a direct ratio; the physical distance became shorter when people feel closer to each other. However, when there is a negative feeling between them, the reactions of people polarised, their distance either getting more closer or more far away.
