The bible talks heavily about the company we keep. Many times the wrong people will keep you in bondage and not even in bondage to sin but they will keep you in bondage to insecurities, low self esteem, fear etc sadly some people want you to stay in bondage to these things . Healthy relationships bring about freedom. I can attest that reflecting over my life I realize how many people in my past were only keeping me in bondage and I can tell how I feel much freer without them.
