[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People misunderstand boundaries as “the way I want people to treat me and they must comply”. They aren’t. Boundaries are about what you can do and are prepared to do. So if your husband calls you vile names but you need him for money and have no other pressure levers, you don’t have a boundary. Bc no matter how many times you say “you can’t treat me this way”, he knows he can.[/quote] This. My friend has a boundary about cheating, but her husband constantly cheats. Why? Because he knows she won't leave because of her low self esteem and despite the fact that she has a job she could be fine with single, she likes the lifestyle he can provide. So why would he respect the boundary when he gets to do whatever he wants anyways. [/quote]
