We have no actual control over relationships. Good relationships require that both parties are emotionally healthy. Relationships cannot be the most important thing in our lives. Love and truth are most important, and if we adhere to love and truth, some of our relationships will flourish and others will wither. Relational rift occurs when at least one person is not adhering to either love or truth, and rifts are not the end of the world. This rifting happens occasionally in the doctor-patient relationship, and we need not be inconsolable but can rather wish a patient well in their relationship with another doctor. Relationships must always be subordinate to love and truth.
