There's an African proverb that compares a person with an attractive spouse to a farmer who grows their grapes by the road.
When you have something other people envy, you feel like you have to be constantly vigilant.
This wisdom isn't limited to attractive partners.
People who drive a cheap car don't worry about getting carjacked. People with average jobs aren't deathly afraid of being laid off. People who wear a Timex watch aren't worried about scratching the bezel.
