About This Quote
This quote shows how people can be so attached to someone who is no longer in their lives. If you have had a good relationship with someone, it is easy to feel like you know them very well. You learn about their likes and dislikes and what makes them happy and sad. As you grow older, you change and sometimes that changes how you feel about someone who was once perfect for you.
