Thank you for posting.
I set boundaries by saying no to something or someone that I cannot handle or am not interested or drawn to.
I would like other people to be compassionate and understanding. I would also like other people to respect me for the boundaries I set.
Have a great day ahead!
Okay I think Im doing reasonably well going by this checklist.🕊
How do you set boundaries for emotional maturity? How would you like other people to treat you and respect you?
I learned to say "No" when needed and don't put myself last anymore all the time. I acknowledge my needs.
For me it's important that people show me respect, don't shout or become verbally abusive or tell me lies. I do not expect all people to like me, some others will not, that's life but one can still stay friendly with each other and show respect.
