[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP has said "boundaries" about 20x in this thread. There is no infraction of "boundaries" here, OP just doesn't like this person and wants an excuse to respond to their outreach with rudeness. [/quote] Yes, the OP doesn't quite understand boundaries. Boundaries aren't about making other people abide by your rules. Boundaries are about YOUR RESPONSE to other's behavior (walking away, ending a conversation, hanging up the phone, etc). Thinking other people need to follow your rules will set you up to be constantly irritated. You can't control other people's behaviors. You can only control your own actions. Therapy 101. This, as well as performing basic manners and politeness (saying thank you to gifts!) even when you don't understand the reasoning behind them will make your path through life so much smoother.
