Thoughts: Does distance make the heart grow fonder?

I was thinking about this today, does a little bit of distance help your relationship grow? I say yes. I feel like a little distance creates enough space for you to miss your mate. Keeping it fresh is what I like to call it. I’ve seen so many relationships completely suffer because of “smothering”. Of course when you are in a relationship it is completely a team effort but you are still an individual and need your space somethimes. Of course there has to be balance, being gone ALL of time is just not gonna work because in order for a seed to grow you must fertilize it, water it, and give it sunshine. If not the seed will not grow into that beautiful flower. However if you give it too much sun or too much water you could kill it. So you have to be very careful how you handle the distance/space in your relationship. Tell me what you all think about the statement “Distance makes the heart grow fonder”?
