The article discusses the difference between the comfort achieved in a relationship and the total abandonment of one's own care. It reports that at the beginning of relationships people make an effort to get dressed up, but over time this care decreases significantly.
The text uses humor to criticize this drop in self-esteem within relationships. It cites as an example that people take care of their car, their dog, their fern, and their phone's memory, but always postpone taking care of themselves, saying "when I have the chance, I'll take care of myself."
It argues that the intimacy achieved is positive, allowing one to be without makeup or with messy hair, but warns that there is a difference between being comfortable and simply forgetting one's own existence.
