i have to admit, this is the toughest thing for me to do.
because setting boundaries is giving h permission to walk away. but then again, i can see myself delivering the boundary in a condescending way that would just make any person want to walk away from me. :P
"i need a man with a spine and doesn't run to mommy and daddy when the going gets tough. grow a pair!"
"i don't feel loved by you when you choose to love your mommy more than you love me."
"i won't make love to someone who can't rip themselves away from their mother's breast".
"i need to protect myself from something you initiated (d) so don't try and manipulate me into taking less than what i am entitled to. if you were in my shoes, you'd do the same."
ok. i think my examples are fight-picking and not boundary setting.
