Boundaries

Repost:

I set my boundaries and will rebuild my life. I know what my boundaries are and they will NOT be rammed anymore. I have found myself in many toxic relationships because the other person decided it would be. Always loosening my boundaries just to make the relationship easier for the other person, if I had any boundaries at all. I didn’t know how to protect myself, but I am becoming a boundary badass. Odaat. Thank you all. ❤️

For me, boundaries have been a temporary fix when extricating myself from a relationship with addict.

No entanglements with addicts and extreme care about who I let into my life.

To me it is important to understand that the boundaries have little to nothing to do with others. No one can "ram" your boundaries as an action on the part of someone else just means that you will remove yourself.

When I left my qualifier, I didn't intellectually understand boundaries and certainly never discussed them with him. However I did understand that I needed certain conditions to remain in the relationship and he could not comply with these so I left.
