It was great only while it lasted

Why is it only when ppl die we find out we love them? is it the retrospective effect?
Why do we realize how much we need someone only after they leave?
It is the damn retrospective effect, again. Indeed, things are always exaggerated when you look back at them, like magnifying them, what was good is great, what was bad is misery.
Looking back at the past is tricky..
It was bad only while it lasted..
It was great only while it lasted..
