Hi Procei,
I guess it is "Out of sight, out of mind".
Nite nite! |

But it sounds so much more romantic in Portuguese!
Yes, I think Sara26 gave you the closest saying in English.

pituloca ´s option is closer to the portuguese saying, but the idia is in both.

"Out of sight out of mind" is used to say its easy to forget something if you can ´t see it.... for example dust under the bed. It isn ´t anything remotely romantic.
Is that the meaning of the Portugese saying?

Pituloca has a very good suggestion!
It is closer to the meaning of the portuguese proverb...  |

I believe "OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND" is the best translation for the portuguese proverb. |
