do you think this is true?

As with many proverbs it has a very strong element of truth to it. Familiarity really does breed contempt. However, as with many generalisations it isn't actually entirely true.
How many times have you lost something you had become accustomed to, or even dependent upon, only to realise they didn't really need it once they are forced to live without it. I'm sure however much I NEED the internet, I would eventually realise, if forcibly deprived of it, that I could adequately and happily live without it (although I realise that isn't quite what you are talking about).

That sounds undesirable!! you'll be fearful of no longer having yet another interest for a on a similar time as, yet there are worse issues that ought to take place in case you reside at this dreadful place. looking a sparkling interest is problematic even though it particularly is no longer impossible, and money isn't properly worth risking your protection for. luckily you reside which incorporate your mum and dad so which you do no longer ought to fund your very own residence and pay each and all of the charges, you would be ok till you detect yet another interest, which shouldn't take too long in case you artwork problematic at it.

Yup. I have moved a lot growing up. Went to 7 different high schools and I remember I couldn't wait to move away from Ohio (only lived there a year) and now I am in crappy California and I wish I lived back in Ohio. It is so pretty there. 4 seasons, that is what I will always miss. So I didn't know what I had and now its gone and I miss it.

That's true only for fools who don't know how to appreciate what's in front of them. If you know the value of what you've got and you've done the best you can with it, when it's gone, you will have no regrets.

Yes, unfortunately it's true. When it is gone, it hurts like hell. Some people realize it and know that they can't go back. Other people that don't realize, usually end up in front of a judge in a court of law.

Yes, this is true when it comes to things that are good and bad. For example, I never knew how good a job was til I screwed it up and lost it. And I never knew how bad a boyfriend was til I got the guts to leave him.

Yes. You miss things that you don't think much about when you don't have them anymore. It's that way with people. We never seem to appreciate them enough until they're gone. But then sometimes you don't realize how bad something is for you until you don't have it anymore. Then you find yourself wondering why you did it for so long.

For a short period of time, it was true. But after the first time or two of losing someone/something, I quickly learned never to take anything for granted.

For the most part. Some people know what they have and cherish every minute of it. Others don't and take it for granted, then lose it. Then they're miserable after that. So they kinda brought it on themselves.
