Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

This is a proverb that means that our feeling for those we love increases when we are away from them.  


Sometimes the word absence is substituted with distance




For example: When he came to study English in America, he realized how much he really loved his family. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
