It's not necessarily contradictory. It's been shown here that once you take the attention off of your spouse, they do start thinking about you. I don't think the thinking about the LBS ever goes away, it just gets "changed" for lack of a better term.
Anyhow, keep yourself busy living your life to its fullest. Do what you want to do to have fun and really enjoy. No faking.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
