Intimacy Anorexia is the active withholding of spiritual, emotional and sexual intimacy from a spouse. Everyone else can think the man or woman is a wonderful person, but inside the marriage, their spouse feels alone, disconnected, unwanted and rejected. This pain inside the marriage is from the Intimacy Anorexia.
