I apologize for the confusion. Here is a clearer explanation:
If Sabina is happy and Samuel is sad while in a romantic relationship, it could be because Sabina's happiness could be due to factors unrelated to their relationship, such as personal success or positive experiences. Meanwhile, Samuel's sadness could stem from issues within the relationship itself, leading to his negative emotions despite Sabina's happiness.
