We often hear that setting boundaries is mean or selfish, but this is not true. Boundaries are simply about protecting ourselves and our well-being. When we don’t set boundaries, we are essentially giving others permission to treat us however they want. This can lead to toxic relationships and feelings of resentment.
**Narcissists thrive when you don’t set boundaries.**
Narcissists are experts at manipulating and controlling others. They often use guilt, shame, and gaslighting to get what they want. If you don’t set boundaries with a narcissist, they will continue to take advantage of you.
**A boundary is a line that says where you end and another person begins.**
It allows you to have your own thoughts, feelings, and needs. A boundary also says what is and isn’t okay in a relationship.
**Boundaries are essential to close the door to toxic people and open it to healthy ones.**
When you set boundaries, you are telling people what you will and won’t tolerate. This helps to weed out the toxic people in your life and attract healthy ones.
**The people who hate your boundaries the most are the ones who benefit from you not having them.**
If someone is constantly trying to push your boundaries, it’s a sign that they don’t respect you or your needs. These are the people who you need to set the strongest boundaries with.
**Let’s start practicing setting up a NO ENTRY sign to narcissists!**
