Introduction:
Personal space is the area you can comfortably occupy. The intimate zone is where you and your partner feel most comfortable sharing personal information and experiences. The personal zone extends from the intimate zone outward to include family members, close friends, and coworkers (if you work in an office). In this zone, people are expected to be open about their feelings and opinions without being judged or ridiculed by others nearby. Finally, we have the social zone which includes everyone who isn't directly involved with our lives on a daily basis but still interacts with us socially at events that require mingling like parties or weddings.
The intimate zone
The intimate zone is the space within arm's reach. It's used for personal interactions and personal space.
In this zone, you can touch people without them having to ask for it first. For example, if someone were carrying a baby stroller and dropped it on the floor in front of you (you're not holding any babies), then your first instinct might be to bend down and pick up that stroller so that no one gets hurt—and this would be perfectly fine because it wouldn't violate any boundaries or laws! However, if instead of bending over immediately after dropping their child’s stroller on the floor (which probably would've been pretty dangerous), they yelled out “Hey! Watch where you're going! I'm trying not to fall over here!" Then maybe we wouldn't have been able to help ourselves from laughing at how ridiculous they sounded when saying those words; plus there'd probably also be some laughs coming from everyone else nearby because everyone knows how funny it can sometimes be when someone says something ridiculous like this during an awkward social situation like what happened here today."
The personal zone
The personal zone is the next closest to you, and it can be used to touch someone if they allow it. This is where we are most likely to see people brushing up against one another—and what a lot of interactions begin with! You might say hello or goodbye in this zone, but you should avoid grabbing someone's hand in this space unless they want you to.
As long as you are staying within 18 inches of another person, there is no reason why physical contact should occur outside of these boundaries—unless that person invites it or gives their consent for such actions (for example, when someone hugs them).
The social zone
The social zone is the area of personal space where you can stand and talk to people, shake hands with someone and sit next to them.
This is also known as the "personal zone." It's a larger area than the physical circle around your body (which we'll discuss later) but smaller than your entire environment. In other words, it's all that stuff inside this huge area: people, objects, and anything else in front of you!
The public zone
The public zone is the space that you share with strangers. It's the distance between people in your immediate surroundings, whether they're sitting at a coffee shop or standing on a bus. The public zone is also what we call "personal space," because it describes how much physical distance we need to feel comfortable with someone else—whether they're a total stranger or an acquaintance of ours who has been part of our lives for years.
Public transportation: People are typically seated on buses and trains while they travel, but if you get up to go outside during rush hour or when there's no one else around (like when getting off at stops), be aware of how far away from other passengers might be required by law before boarding again!
Conclusion:
The zone that most people think of when they hear the word “personal space” is the intimate zone. This is the area around your body that you share with another person, which includes any part of their body touching yours or within a few inches of it. The personal zone includes all other areas where two people interact, such as sitting in an armchair together or holding hands on a walk through town. Then there's the social zone where people may stand close enough to touch each other on the shoulder or backs of their hands; these interactions don't require physical contact though they can sometimes feel more intimate because they are taking place in public spaces like restaurants or conventions halls (there are even etiquette guidelines for how much space we should give up when we greet someone).
