I think I do understand the difference. The problem is I've been too afraid to take any action other than talking to her and telling her she's hurting me when she breaks my boundaries.

I tell her that she can do whatever she wants, but that I am not willing to accept certain behaviors.

But then I tolerate them.

And then I resent them.

And my hurt builds all over again.
