It's very true.

My boyfriend and I are soon to be going to separate universities; which means he is now working a lot of the time to get the cash he needs for basic living in.

When we're apart I still, after nearly a year of seeing each other almost constantly, find myself daydreaming about that time when I see him again. You tend to remember things more fondly, forget little transgressions and obsess to a certain extent about when you'll see each other again.

It's sort of like when you're planning to get something for ages; but when you've got the thing you covert most, you lose that excited feeling. I'm not saying people don't live up to expectations - just that when you're alone without something, that thing is what you want the most.

Edit// [mini]

Lawl! My friends are the same with that psychology rubbish. They think that because they have a grade in psycho-babble, they can shrink the rest of us. A perception of love changes with each individual, and the extent to which one will go for love is not based on some rigid theorem.
