Disclosure, or sharing personal information, and feedback, or the exchange of reactions to that information, can help reduce uncertainty in a relationship. When people share more about themselves and receive positive feedback, they may feel more secure and trusting in the relationship. This can lead to further intimacy and closeness. Physical contact may or may not increase as a result, and differences between individuals may still be present but may be more manageable with increased trust and understanding. Trust is not necessarily breached through disclosure and feedback, but rather may be strengthened if done in a positive and respectful manner.
