What do you mean, the inside story is empty and the outside is real? (The fortune teller who met 1 said this today)

I think so: internal shortcomings may mean that your feelings are not very good, and external reality may mean that you two have a good relationship in front of others.

To put it simply, you two seem to have a good relationship in front of everyone, but in fact you all know whether your relationship is good or not ~
