Is it true that the the one closest to you is the one whom you usually overlook?

Hi dianne What you said was true.We usually overlook the person that we love the most.I mean we take them for granted.I am not saying that we don't care for them but we don't appreciate them we don't give them special attention.Its like we feel them that they are ours.More frankly saying that we are so confident that we are sure that they won't leave us and go whatever happens.It is this confidence that makes us to overlook them.But I also say this,once such people leave you and go the loss is terrible and the pain would be too much to bear.I have experienced such pain...

I don't think it's true...when you really love someone, you want to please them, and you want to make everything right in their world. When you wake up everyday, you give them a good morning kiss, you kiss them at the door when they are ready for work, you write notes on the bathroom mirror or leave notes laying around the house to surprise them. You call them at work just to say 'hi' or you plan a lunch get together. That's what happens when you really love someone. You get comfortable with them and you relax around them, like your make up doesn't have to be perfect, because you know they love you know matter what you look like...and when you have a bad day, you know their still going to love you...what matters is being able to say "I'm sorry -honey, dear, etc...- I was having a bad day and I didn't mean to take out my frustrations on you" that's what being in love is and knowing when to say you're sorry...never act like the situation didn't happen, because that could cause problems in your relationship.

Yes, this is true. Think of the first time you met your partner on your first date. You made sure you were well dressed and everything was in order, but once you had been going out for a long time or gotten married, after awhile you didn't care what you looked like. You can probably look at this from both sides. On one side yes it seems like you are being overlooked, but on the other maybe the person has become comfortable with you and is not afraid of you judging them.
