There are people who can’t stand to be alone, and people who can’t stand not to be alone. They can love each other completely over a long and happy marriage, tolerating that one difference and appreciating everything else, but neither one can ever understand how the other feels about it.
I would think that retirement is hard on both husband and wife. All of a sudden you’re spending every moment with each other when you’ve had some time apart for years.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Now go away.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder……so get lost. More or less what Chuk said.
