FAQ:

Q: Can a woman truly thrive without intimacy indefinitely?
A: She can survive — and even grow — for long periods through self-connection, but complete isolation often leads to emotional fatigue over time.

Q: How long before the effects of lack of intimacy show?
A: It varies. Some women feel it in weeks; others can adapt for months or years. The more fulfilling other areas of life are, the longer she can thrive.
