They tell you about their bigger plans in life and you are a huge part of the future.
They don’t make fake promises as they themselves know it hurts to hope and then get disappointed.
But at the same time you have your independent professional and personal goals. You don’t hinder each other’s paths and encourage them to do what they aspire for.
