@xandia
Hi Xandia, I like what you have said. Here in my culture, people tend to go around the bush, which I think causes more misunderstandings sometimes. I think that sometimes, we just need to be very direct to the point but not in an angry way. Thank you for sharing this, Xandia! Really good response. :)
Within the past few months, I've learned a lot about boundaries and feel that I'm better at establishing them. I feel this is an important part of self-care. Thanks for bringing awareness to it.
@777Bre777 Hi Bre, it is good to hear that you are doing better at setting boundaries. Keep it up! <3
@crang17 Is there a boundary I can communicate as a way to respect my own needs? 💕
One boundary in a sense if to limit my going to places that tend to trigger me. So I can set boundaries for myself as well as for others. And I only have control of my own actions so this works for me.
@soulsings what you've said is something that relates to me too. I have difficulty letting go sometimes and would have those places stuck in my head even. But, I agree with you, we should be more mindful of our own boundaries as well and learn to prioritize our wellness over anything. No one else would do it for us. ❤️
Nice
@crang17
Boundaries...phew! Yeah. This topic speaks to my soul!
The problem with boundaries is that even though you set them, some people don't respect them. I've set topic boundaries with family members, and they've gotten better, but it literally got to a point where I screamed at them, telling them I didn't want to hear about it anymore. I can only tell you so many times before I lose it and then tell you in a mean way.
If someone tells me "I don't want to talk about it" then I'm not going to talk about it. I have a friend who will say "I don't want to get into this because it hurts me" and that lets me know that she just wanted to mention something briefly and move on. If I continue the topic she's going to be in a lot of pain. We're good with each other that way. I wish some family members would do the same.
@thoughtfulmomma
I feel you with some family members not following boundaries most of the time. Someone once told me that our families are usually the ones who hurt us the most because they are more familiar to us. It is amazing though when we have friends who are good to us. I am glad that you continue communicating your boundaries to the people around you.
❤️
@crang17
Hello Crang thank you for this check in
Is there a boundary I can communicate as a way to respect my own needs? 💕
Hi @RumpleSteeleSkin, I feel you. Sometimes, we just need to be strict with kindness, so people will start realizing and understanding that boundaries are there to maintain the well-being of a person. Cheers for standing up for yourself! ❤️
I also appreciate you bringing awareness to this powerful topic "Boundaries".
Over the past few years, I have become better at setting boundaries and making them clear with others in my life. Boundaries helps to maintain a level of respect and self-awareness.
