My mother would always tell me this quote growing up. At first I didn’t understand, but once I got into some more serious relationships with men, I came to realize that it is SOOO TRUE!
My very first relationship I was obviously in Awee so I would want to see him every day if I could.
Now, if I see my boyfriend every day I kind of get sick of him (in a good way though). It’s not that I don’t want to spend time with him; it’s just there’s nothing new to talk about.
So by letting a little time pass, eventually I’ll miss him dearly
This Idiom basically means that distancing yourself from those we love will just make you more appreciative of the time you do spend together, and eventually you will miss it.
It’s a proven fact that couples with limited face-to-face contact will engage in deeper conversations, and have more meaningful interactions than those who see each other on a daily basis.
So take a mini break from your loved ones, and learn how to love with distance. Spend more time worrying about yourself and not the relationship.
~Absence is to love as wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small and kindles the great~
