I appreciate all the help and feedback here, especially Naives gentle truths. You got it going on.

So while I was typing this, the dad texting me "ok thanks." I"m so freaked out by the whole situation. It stresses me out.

This is not new, the being stressed out by conflict.
The setting and keeping boundaries part is. I'm hoping that the follow through will make this ancient crap go away.

After all, why should I feel uncomfortable? They're the ones that are imposing!
The boundaries thing gets easier, I found it difficult at first till I realised most healthy people have them, they just don't call them boundaries, it's just what they do like it or lump it.:rotfxko
