Summary

This quote suggests that as time goes by in a marriage, familiarity can lead to a lack of attentiveness. A man may physically see his wife, but due to routine and familiarity, he might not truly notice or connect with her. On the other hand, a woman may understand her husband's behavior and intentions without even looking at him because of her deep understanding and familiarity with him. It indicates how people in long-term relationships can become somewhat "blind" to each other's presence, while simultaneously developing a profound understanding of their partner.

If the years have taught me one thing it's that those who care are always scarce. Those who genuinely care; not the acquaintances, false friends or those with similar aspirations.
