When people say the grass is always greener on the other side, they mean that everything looks better when you don't have it. So if greener grass also needs to be mowed, it means that even though you may think you want something, (or someone) other than what you have, Whatever you're wishing for also takes work.

When you see something you want because it looks better than what you have, people say "the grass looks greener on the other side but that grass will need mowing too(it'll look like this one someday). Hope you get it and that's not a stupid question. A stupid question is one which you already know the answer like, a retorical question.

There's an expression "The grass is alwasy greener on the other side of the fence." This means that other peoples' lives always look better to us.
Saying that grass still has to be mowed is like a reminder that just because something looks perfect, it still takes work, can have problems and requires attention and maintenance.

The grass is greener on the other side of the street.
It means there is always something that looks better than what you have.
The greener grass needs mowed also.
Once you seek and get the grass that was greener, you find that there is more up keep in order to maintain it.

The grass is always greener in someone else's yard.
Yeah, but the greener grass still needs to be mowed also.
(It may seem that everyone else has it better than you, but they have the same problems that you do too.)

You know the saying 'the grass is greener on the other side of the fence'...meaning...you always want something other than what you have. Well....that grass needs mowing too. As in...that life or situation has its flaws..just like ur own..

Greener grass needs mowed...
it has to be maintained (work put into it) and it will get weeds, rocks, etc in it...just like the other grass did.

In my opinion it means that there are always bumps in any relationship. While the grass may "seem" greener on the other side of the road, it still requires work. As with ANY relationship.

well some people say the grass is greener on the other side which usually means that something else is better than what you have but i guess it's saying that it may be greener but you still have to tend to it and take care of it for it to stay that way....for instance you may think one relationship is better than the one you have but you still have to work hard to keep it that way

The grass is always greener on the other side (is the saying). So I guess they are saying that grass is grass no matter what side you are on.
Another words, be satisfied with what you have in life.
