Shouldn't letting go be painless if you've never learned how to hold on?

Summary

This quote suggests that detaching oneself from something or someone should be easier if they have not learned how to become emotionally attached or invested in the first place. Unlike individuals who have experienced the struggle of holding on to something, those who have not developed attachment skills may find it less painful to let go. This implies that the pain of letting go is often derived from the strength of one's emotional connection and the subsequent difficulty of breaking that tie.
