Summary

This quote reflects the idea that love should be free from possession or control. It suggests that one should allow their loved ones the freedom to make their own choices, even if it means letting them go. If they willingly come back, it indicates that their love and commitment are genuine. However, if they choose not to return, it implies that their feelings were not true or strong enough to sustain the relationship. Ultimately, this quote serves as a reminder to respect the autonomy of others and to accept the reality of whether love truly exists or not.
