If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they’re yours; if they don’t they never were.
Richard Bach
I also saw an addition to this in a meme that said if they come back then no one else wanted them, so set them free again. π. I thought it was funny π. But seriously do you agree with the quote above? Under what circumstances does this really apply? I have always heard this quote and I wondered if it was really true. Have you ever experienced the need to let someone go because you loved them so much? Or was it the fact that you wanted to get rid of the stress they were causing?π€·π½ββοΈ. Just asking.
Why is it if you love the person there is the need to let them go? Is it that they donβt love you and need to be away from you? Actually do you have that control over anyone that you can determine if they stay or if they go? Why would you want to have that kind of control over another human? Or is it that it is not a matter of control but simply a temporary bond that was created? Can this bond be cut easily so that the person knows itβs ok to walk away? How do you let them know that you are there waiting if they find that the grass is really not greener on the other side. Do you just say it or show it? π€. Do you really want them to come back into your life or just stay away? Interesting questions indeed. How do you feel about the quote? Do you feel that if you love someone and they have the urge to leave you should step in their way or should you just step out of their way? I really want to know what you are thinking, and I know others do too. Try commenting ππ½, but if you are not comfortable, reach out to me via any medium.

Blood is thicker than water, and any other bond than that is based upon a different type of cohesive element. Maybe social, or emotional, but they don’t trump family ties
Off course love is a strong enough reason to stick to someone, but is it the type of love with the strong adhesive factor that exist in the relationship?
Having children is a perfect example of whether or not we should set free the one whom we love. If you are married,, then the certificate is the main thing that binds you together. The children however are related to you by blood, thus representing the strongest possible bond. While you can break the marriage and set the other free, you can’t divorce or disassociate your children because you are tied to them for life
If someone decides to leave, then something must be wrong. And this is not the time to cast blame or reevaluate, because that time has passed. It’s time for reconciliation – reconciliation your past with your future and move on because the bond shows signs of incompatibility.
I never even thought about it like that. Interesting. Food for thought. Thanks a lot. Will mull over and we will see parts of this in future blogs. π
All relationships that work, work because those involved want the same thing. To be together. So when one is weak the other helps strengthen and vice versa. But if only one person wants it to work then the burden of the entire relationship will be on the shoulder of one and eventually they will fall, because we all do.
No one should force themself to want someone, and no one should keep wanting someone that doesn’t want them.
You can’t make someone love you simply because you love them. It has to be their choice and desire to be with you as much as it yours to be with them.
Understand this and your heart will be free. A one sided relationship is not a relationship. All true relationships are mutual and will always be.
God bless.
In order for the relationship to work both persons have to put in 100%. Both persons have to want it as you said. Thanks for the feedback. ππ½
I believe if you love someone and the energy is not reciprocated, and they have all intentions of leaving, let them go.
Donβt ever hinder them from leaving regardless of the intensity of the love you have for them.
Holding on will erode your self worth and love. Let them go and channel that love elsewhere.
Let them go so you can grow. ππ½
