LIVING COSTS INTIMACY IS WHEN YOU ARE WILLING TO GET INVOLVED WITH ANOTHER PERSON INTIMATELY. ISOLATION IS A STATE WHICH PEOPLE LOSE OR DO NOT HAVE COMUNICATION OR COPERATION WITH OTHERS. SOMETIMES THE ISOLATION COMES AS A RESULT FROM THE FEAR TO HAVE A PAINFUL RELATIONSHIP. Intimacy vs. Isolation comes into effect after most young adults have dealt with their identity issues and economic/independent standing. Most young adults have reached a maturity level that will allow them to alter their independence and identity so that they can fit their partner's self into their lives. But because of this adjustment, many young adults are not willing to get involved with another person intimately causing some to never leave this stage and turn to loneliness and isolation. (Laura E. Berk, 2007).
