“If I express myself fully, then it’ll likely cause my loved one to feel [embarrassed/anger/etc.] . . . so I better not say or do that thing. I better be a good girl/boy.” How familiar. How bizarre.

Boundaries—something we often hear about and “know” we “should” have them. But what is a boundary, really? Are you really creating a boundary—or are you merely being suggestive? How do you know if you “need” a boundary? What’s holding your back from stating your true desires? Why do you feel like crap when trying to stand for a boundary?

Rocking the boat . . . just a clever way of saying “Hey, don’t do that thing you want to do because you might upset some people.” What if what you really desire has a potentional to upset some other people.
