Personally, I don't believe in this quote..
If you love something enough, why would you let it go? If it were me I'd fight for it no matter what. It is only when the other person has given up that I lose hope.
I have almost always stuck up to my friends no matter what. Even when they've considered me their enemy, I still worry and care for them. It's partially because I have not lost hope that maybe someday, things that have happened will blow over.
Which is why I'm happy that some of my enemies have become my friends again. Sure, we might not be as close as we used to be, but at least I can sleep soundly that I have made one less enemy just because I didn't give up.
"Forgive and forget" ika nga..
The thing about that quote though is that I agree with it.. and yet I disagree with it..
Forgiveness is essential to friendship turned enemies.. but forgetting is a tough cookie. Forget what the person did to you, forget the pain it felt when he/she did the act, but do not forget what has been done nor should you forget the pain you felt.
Confusing?
Think of it this way, the only way you can forgive someone fully is when you forget that the person did something to hurt you.
As I was once told by my teacher "The sin is in the act, not the person itself"

I agree with you. Love is selfish. There's nothing wrong with wanting the person to be in your life (Why does this sentence feel grammatically incorrect?). It's only wrong when you abuse the person and hinder the person from growing, and I don't think you're the type of person who does that.
Glad to have you as a friend, Sean. (:
