By the time you realize you have boundary issues, you have already established many relationships that depend on you behaving a certain way. Whether you have too rigid of boundaries that keep others from knowing you or too loose of boundaries where you lose sight of who you are. It can be very difficult and painful to re-establish boundaries. Especially with those you love. It can make you feel very vulnerable and scared. It can also feel selfish and mean. There can be fear that the relationship will end. However, setting boundaries is not about ending relationships but about creating new ways to relate.
“Boundaries are the perfect distance at which I can love you and myself. Because if I have lost myself and fallen into you or I am hiding within me, I won’t be able to find my heart. “
