You might have frightened others by using the term asymptotic and led still others to look up dictionary or encyclopedia.
Let me give you my own version.
Freedom is never hundred percent unbounded. There comes a moment when you pause and wonder whether excessive freedom will be noxious. You will realize that freedom to a large extent is enjoyable, but after a point it becomes dangerous. As you approach towards the peak of the freedom the realization dawns upon you that you are reaching a saturation level.

Asymptotic freedom
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
• Ten things you didn't know about images on Wikipedia •Jump to: navigation, search
In physics, asymptotic freedom is the property of some gauge theories in which the interaction between the particles, such as quarks, becomes arbitrarily weak at ever shorter distances, i.e. length scales that asymptotically converge to zero (or, equivalently, energy scales that become arbitrarily large).

Discovery
The fact that asymptotic freedom is a feature of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the quantum field theory of the interactions of quarks and gluons, was discovered by David Gross and Frank Wilczek (1973), and David Politzer (1973), and by 't Hooft who mentioned the possibility in a conference talk in 1972 but did not publish the idea. For their discovery, Gross, Wilczek and Politzer were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2004.

Asymptotic freedom implies that in high-energy scattering the quarks move within nucleons, such as the neutron and proton, essentially as free, non-interacting particles, and it allows physicists to calculate the cross sections of various events in particle physics reliably using parton techniques.

The discovery also helped rehabilitate the reputation of quantum field theory (QFT) as a coherent description of particle interactions. Prior to 1973, many theorists suspected that QFT was rendered fundamentally incoherent by the short-distance Landau pole that arose in quantum electrodynamics and some other field theories. Asymptotically free theories, however, lack this Landau pole. The discovery of asymptotic freedom was therefore a key development toward the emergence of a Standard Model of particle physics based on quantum field theory.

(While the Standard Model is not itself entirely asymptotically free, the phenomenon raises the possibility that it could be an effective field theory approximation to an asymptotically free grand unified theory; and since its strong interactions are asymptotically free, any Landau poles in it are banished anyway to a realm far beneath the Planck length.)

If you mean in physics, it is not possible to explain in one small word.

However, simply put it seems to mean:
For quarks, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and familiarity breeds contempt.

The attractive forces between quarks increase as the separation increases.

It has to do with the thing being a thing with the thing. Got it?
