Physical and personal space
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Well we all know the term "Personal Space," and "Personal Bubble." Right?

But what do they mean?

"The physical space immediately surrounding someone, into which any encroachment feels threatening to or uncomfortable for them."

Now we can see Physical and personal space are similar. Yet, Personal space is combined with someone's preference of space.
