Cometh you peeple. Cometh.

What if you draw your line and create a very solid and immovable boundary which results in a few individuals bowing out of your life because they can’t handle that you’ve spoken up and told them not to cross said boundary

If people can't or won't respect your boundaries, do you really want them around in your life?

Then that’s what happens. Most people are aware of those potential consequences when they make a choice like that, otherwise there probably wasn’t a reason to set up those boundaries. If they can’t respect your boundaries then they aren’t good for you in your life anyways. There’s more people out there anyways, 7 billion of them lol

What if it’s a boundary that they think is too rigid or something they don’t consider to be a boundary personally? For instance they are fine with doing certain things/saying certain things to close personal friends but you make it clear that it’s unacceptable to you. They find it difficult to accept and think it shouldn’t be a boundary. They decide to distance themselves or stop associating with you.

How important is this boundary to you?...

If you can't tolerate it, then say bye bye, they already did - because they couldn't tolerate NOT doing it around you

Very important boundary of mine. Non negotiable.
