Your explanation of the proverb is in line with my thinking. You have shown how it can be used within a friendship context, surely the same principle applies for people separating romantically as well ? I would think this proverb is useful for both and maybe even more situations like for example a business relationship ? Thanks for your input

It's more to do with differences in principle forces people to separate. For example, if someone wants to be your friend but you found you have differences in principle/ethics, then you would state this proverb to indicate you don't want to make friend with this person.
