Give an example of this along with your answer.

"... and if you let it go and it comes back is yours, and if it does'nt, it never was." THIS is the last part of the saying...
No not all the way-- as it takes two to make a relationship solid- and if one of you isn't working at it and just letting it go... or if one of you doesnt work hard to enough to keep it viable..- then the relationship will never really work at all. (except as a dysfunctional problamatic relationship). A relationship takes two individuals both set on having a good relationship that is built with trust, honesty, and compromise--- and if not, there will be emotional pain involved. So in life, no matter how hard, one needs to drop the bad relatioinships and leave them in the past until one finds the right person to be involved with- where it is a total team effort. That is what a good loving relationship is about.. and it can be found.

For example your love is very young and feels she hasn't had the oppurtunity to meet and socialize with other people and that she is wondering if your the right one because well hey youv'e been the only one right. Well if you love her than let her go and see if there is something or someone that will make her happier than you.If so then you are both better off and if not you were the right one from the beginning.

Yes, I do believe in it.
A couple of years ago I was with a guy who at the moment, I thought I loved. Things weren't working out due to certain circumstances like our distance from each other. We lived in different states. I knew we both suffered and that there was a girl that liked him back where he lived. I met her and she was quite a nice girl. I thought that far away we'd be better. So I broke it off. He is happier now. He can spend all the time he wants with that girl and not have to suffer the constant separation. I am also happier. :)

yeah i do believe in that. its like when you have a pet that you really love and it wants out, u let it out although you'll miss it so that it can feel happy. and this can get deeper, when you love someone and you let go of them the relationship grows and gets more loving just because you provide freedom. and that can embodies trust as well, to me, the people i trust are the ones that i know will never allow/force me to do something that i dont want to do even if they are in control.

sure
i dumped an ex girlfriend of mine i was deeply in love with 4 years ago or so.. compatabillity issues. she immediately started dating someone else to get over me. i spent a month trying to get her to come back, and she was cheating on him with me and still telling me she loved me.. but no matter what i couldn't get her to want to actually date me again. she was in to the other guy as long as i was riding her coat tails. (i know.. sounds like i was getting played.)
anyways, i told her i wasn't going to talk to her any more and IMEDIATELY she called him, told him she's done with him, and came back to me. i believe you don't know what you have until its gone and it wont be gone until the other person lets you go.. i really think that the quote has some basis in truth

yea, when my fiancee (now) broke up with me after 2 yrs of being together i had to let go. I couldn't keep him there if he didn't want to be with me. So i let him have his time and after about 4 months he wanted me back and realized how good he had it with me and what he lost. we've been together for a total of 4 yrs now and we're getting married next year.

I believe in the first part, not the second that goes "if it comes back, yada yada yada..." If you love someone and they aren't happy, love them enough to find their happiness by letting them go and find it. But, rarely do they come back.

Well...in a logical sense, if you love that person, but suppose that person don't love you, whats the use of keeping them. That is just denial

I think that saying applies more to obsessive love than true love.

I hate cliche lines like this... They are created by people who are too weak to face the situation they are confronted with.
