This was when I learned that you have to give up your life as you know it to get a new one: that sometimes you need to let go of everything you're clinging to and start over, whether because you've outgrown it or because it's not working anymore, or because it was wrong for you in the first place.Kelly Cutrone
About This Quote
When you love someone, you may have to let go of them, but you also have to let them go. The only way a relationship can grow is if both people are willing to grow with it. If one person is content with being where they are and the other person is seeking a change, they have to give up on their old life for a new life together. In this quote, the speaker is speaking about how she has let go of her old life and has begun a new one with her girlfriend.
They have been together for some time now and have built a strong friendship. However, their relationship is not the same as that of a couple who has been together for years and may be getting tired of each other. This quote speaks about how she has decided to move on and put her new life and her new friends first before anything else.
She has let go of the old and embraced the new.
