It means that you should push away someone that you love for your own selfishness & ignorance.

Let's say you get in a fight/disagreement with someone.. You are pretty convinced that you're right and the other person is wrong. But the other person believes that they are right and you are wrong (thus the disagreement). You KNOW you're wrong but you don't want to admit it.. So you keep saying you're right. Then eventually you'll lose that person. Thus the saying "don't lose someone you love over pride". In other words, if you know you're wrong about something, admit your mistakes. Say sorry even if you don't think you should be the one saying it. If you try to prove your point and don't admit your mistakes, you can end up losing someone because of your pride of "knowledge" even though you were wrong.
Make sense?

In any relationship, be that friendship, family or a romantic relationship, you'll come against times when you disagree. Some people are too proud to admit that they're wrong or that they need help. So instead of admitting their mistakes or asking for help, they'll let the relationship deteriorate for the sake of pride.
