Propinquity

Big word. :))) Maybe I have problems gauging just how close I am to other people. And it's such a wonder that proximity between people is an intransitive relation. One can be close to a person, yet not to that person's other close friends. And how does one know if he/she is close enough to another? I thought that if I kept pouring out my soul unto you, we'd get closer, but meseems I'm the only one taking a spill.
