    How to use "Cutting off" in context?

    When cutting something off, be it a limb or an engagement ring, there is a sense of finality that comes with it. To sever something connects us to what is being cut off and in doing so, helps to create a boundary that keeps us safe. For example, severing a limb from a human body removes a potential threat, and in the same way, breaking up a relationship can be healing for both parties.

    After breaking up with someone, the last thing you may want to do is see them. And in the same way, when cutting off the limbs of a relationship, it allows both people to heal in their own way.
