The air zone

Each one has an air zone,
Beyond which he wants to face the other.
The zone enlarges or converges
Depending upon the intimacy.
Two hand length for strangers,
An arm length for the known,
A span length for the blood relation,
And little distance for the opposite gender
For one to be at ease to talk to.
