out of sight, out of mind or not?

Do aries believe that "out of sight, out of mind" or "out sight, makes the heart grow warmer"?
i believe in the 1st one? what about you and why?

I answered this on the Scorp board ....


Your thoughts create your reality .. not vision or any of the senses.

Whether a person is visible to you, or not .. the growing of the heart in either direction of warmness or coldness ... has to do with how you regard the person in your thoughts.

depends on the person. My ex taurus... out of sight...dammit please get out of sight...make it stop!!!!!!

yea although for my scorp its 'out of sight, but never far from heart'.

depends on your relationship, even with friends, some people you'll always miss and some wouldnt make much of a difference. I've ended friendships where the other person (back in HS) said i'd regret losing them and would miss them terribly.... didnt even notice she was gone, and eventually came to the point where i physically never saw her. you know when someone fades out and eventually you dont even realize they are in the same room as you, now thats creepy.

depends. i can keep casual friendships, but they don't rely on constant stimulation, we email or phone chat and i see them once a year when i go home.

if you're talking love relationships, well, out of site is just that. and i need in my site, in my life, to keep interested. my heart may stay fond with distance, but my body won't wait around for that. or my mind, or my energy level..........

no, to stay attached, there has to be proximity. for me.

yes, proximity is important for staying together. not to say when you're apart for a while it's over. but some people like to separate because they think that being apart makes the heart grow warmer.

ok. i recognize that answers here are subjective. i get that. but geminifox (hey girl, congrats on the relationship, sure you wanna hook up with a crazy aries?? ha.)
i don't think that just because a relationship is true, or great ensures that it will survive distance. it may be great when all conditions for greatness are being met, and it may survive distance in some form or another. but there have been plenty of great loves that crashed and burned. some of us cannot maintain even a quality relationship easily or at all if there is too much prolonged absence. i am one of those people. i would limp along for as long as i could, but eventually, real life would get in the way.
bravo for trying and even bigger bravo for succeeding. but a significant portion of the population would not manage it. ok, in my opinion.

If a relationship is going to survive, it takes the effort and courage of the two people to continue it. As with my bf, i told him if he didn't keep in close contact with me while he was away to not expect a phone call when he returned. He has kept his word and i feel like i know him better now. Yet i cant say there weren't days were this utterly attractive gentlemen didn't catch my attention. honestly i feel like you're put in moments where life tempts you to leave someone because of distance. Again it all the depends on the people in the relationship, whether its a 'true' relationship or a 'destructive' relationship, it all depends on how attached you are to the person.

I can handle a lot of long distance...if I see the other person is willing to make the effort to keep the communication a two-way street. If not I do lose my interest and willingness to keep the r/ship going. Funny you should ask this question b/c I am going through something like this. I have posted on the Cap board

I don't tend to miss much...
But If I like someone for a while they'll be in my thoughts..........
Then turn to good times...
Then turn to what the hell was wrong with me?? lol.

absence does make the heart grow fonder,but if you dont keep in touch,even when not seeing them ,it can make the heart wander
it does me anyway
aries people take it for granted you will always be there for them ,even after a long absence.

thanks for the tread resurection. sometimes i miss him but "it can make the heart wander"
