For some and I pray it is many Dionne Warwick set the tone for individual freedom in personal relationships with her song Promises, Promises. In these political currents it may apply to those who realize the most dependable promises are the ones we make to ourselves. Not the promises made to us.
Released November 1, 1968. Studio A&R NYC. Writers, producers: Burt Bacharach, Hal David.
First verse may say it all.
Promises, promises
I'm all through with promises, promises now
I don't know how I got the nerve to walk out*
If I shout, remember I feel free
Now I can look at myself and be proud.
*For civic recognition: Brandon Straka began a movement (#WalkAway) of enlightened ex democrats et. al. May 26th, 2018. Technically I say that he has served and paid for that service when jailed demonstrating for his country, with honor.

What I am quite but not completely sure of is that I would support not preventing anyone from not doing what they do not want to do. However, in some situations I would not recommend such behavior.
