I find it difficult setting boundaries too, specifically with my significant other. One way I help myself set them with him is I'll text him them. Or i'll wait n then say them because I think I'm being toxic 😧✌Anywho still trying too :)

Yes! It's hard because not everyone responds well to the boundaries I set, and I'm afraid of backlash or rejection. I'm not good at it yet, but I guess what I try to do is keep in mind that my needs are important and I will be happier with the boundaries in place.

I feel like this stems from feeling unworthy of respect, at least for me. I’ve had to have more positive self talk and be confident and assertive. You deserve respect.
