When people aren’t respectful of our limits, we can set boundaries, or we can pay consequences. The person who continues to break your heart isn’t in a place to properly care for your heart. If your focus is trying to change the other person, you will quickly feel like boundaries don’t work for you. “Say what you mean, mean what you say, and don’t say it mean.”—Jim Cress It’s often people who need boundaries the most who will respect them the least. A boundary without a real consequence will never be taken seriously.
